The Riot Archive


Behold the Riot Archive! It should look fancier shouldn't it. It doesn't look like much in this picture but it is, in fact, HUGE. It is 90 data CDs and 28 data DVDs worth of material. Oh... and this isn't all of it. Last year's show is saved on a hard drive somewhere. 7 years worth of stuff!

Right now I am going through the archives to put together a 7th Anniversary Podcast. It's more work than it sounds like and I'm going to take a break because this is taking me FOREVER.

Does anyone have any ideas for our 7th Anniversary Show? Let me know! The old stuff will go out in a podcast but I'm looking for some good stuff to do live that day.

Dude,

One of the first shows I really listened to was in 2005 (spring or summer, I only remember because I was dating my fiance at the time) and you did this spot for "Old Yeller" dog food that had me rolling. I was laughing so hard, my co-workers thought I was going crazy.
You NEED to include that piece. Please. Pretty please.

Hey Obi,
I'm a pretty new listener (compared to everyone else who's commented), but I think there is some stuff that definitely needs to be on it:
-anything where you're on meds is hilarious (like your idea of making a desk)
-George discussing what to bring back from the UK
-That camping trip that you went on that would have made the perfect horror film
-and some interviews: Demon Hunter at GMA, Gator from Inhale Exhale, and ADTL (that Oregon vs. OSU thing was hilarious)
Yeah I know I'm nerdy for remembering all that stuff, but you know what, nerds can be cool too (I guess...I hope). =).Ha.

I totally forgot to add two more R!oit highlights:
-shopping trips for embarrassing items
-a certain memebr in Obi's family being "violently ill" during the holidays.
Those were hilarious, I was laughing so hard that I strarted crying because I was in pain, and I still couldn't stop =).
