A Soapy Joe Show? Your Thoughts, Please

I've been considering adding a second podcast to the Average Joe Radio lineup, and would like your input.

There is a virtually untapped world of Christian Contemporary music in the Independent music scene. I've been considering adding a fifteen to twenty minute weekly show as part of the Soapy Joe blog. The show would consist of an introduction, followed by three or four songs, a final thought, and a wrap up. Not a whole lot of talk, not a whole lot of opinion. Just a whole lot of praise and worship music.

The show would share a Podshow/Mevio feed with The Joe Show at http://averagejoeradio.mevio.com, would be posted each week to the homepage at AverageJoeAmerican.US, but would have it's own home with the Soapy Joe blog. This would allow listeners to subscribe to:

1. all audio content from both shows [FEED];
2. audio content from The Joe Show only [FEED];
3. audio and blog content from Soapy Joe only [FEED];
4. all audio and blog content that is posted to the homepage [FEED].

A wide range of selections to choose from that should provide all listeners/readers with exactly the content that they want.

My question is, what do you think? Would you be interested in subscribing and listening to both The Joe Show and a new Soapy Joe show featuring independent Contemporary Christian music? Send me your thoughts. Fill out the form below, or email me.

Joe Wants You!

Average Joe American is looking for you! Memorial Day is just around the corner. As a former member of America's military, I want to put some special thoughts together for a very special episode of The Joe Show.

I'm asking current and former service members to contribute a brief audio clip telling us what it means to them to serve their country, or maybe to share a memory of their time in service.

If you're a current or former U.S. service member and would like to have your story included in The Joe Show, participating is simple. Just call 317-644-6129 and record your story. Please include your first name and branch of service.

The show will be produced and available for Memorial Day weekend.

Thanks for your service to our country, and thanks in advance for supporting The Joe Show.

The Joe Show 71 - Mountain Mirrors

New this week on

The Joe Show
featuring Average Joe American

Episode Seventy-One: Mountain Mirrors

special preview of mountain mirrors new album, dreadnought | myspace
courtesy of magnatune

Move over Pink Floyd, Roger Waters, Led Zeppelin, Days of the New, et. al., there's a new kid in the psychedelic rock scene, and they will not be denied. With the release of their fourth album, Dreadnought, Mountain Mirrors treats us to the best they have yet to offer. From the mesmerizing Born Deranged that opens the album, you'll be caught in a whirlwind that takes you back to your youth -- whatever your age.

The bass licks on this album are like something you haven't heard in almost twenty years. There is no band in top 40 radio today that can make a guitar sing like Mountain Mirrors, nor a lyricist in the mainstream music industry who can pen the poetry that these guys put to music on Dreadnought.

Just about the time you start to feel really at ease and relaxed by the mellow rhythms of Mountain Mirrors, the instrumental Your Dirge that occupies the center track on the album will give you a whole new appreciation for the talent of this incredible band.

Dreadnought is not only a must hear, it's a must purchase, and with the ease of Mountain Mirrors' distribution channel available at Magnatune.com, you can do just that for whatever price you wish, as low as just $5 (though I think you'll agree that the album is worth much more than that).

track 1 | born deranged

track 2 | field of grass

track 3 | i don't belong

track 4 | end of days

track 6 | your dirge

track 8 | birds in a rat race

track 9 | better days

track 10 | a spell to block the sun

track 5 | the elemental (background)

Register to win a free high-quality download of the entire album, including the tracks not featured in The Joe Show #71, by submitting a comment to this post. Submissions will be accepted until 11:59 PM May 17, 2008, with a winner being drawn at random and announced on The Show #73 on May 24, 2008.
