You Get What You Pay For

Posted by Joel Polkinghorne

Well guys, it seems that we here at The YWO Show will be letting you down again. Instead of launching season 2 today, we will be delaying due once again to issues with the server. Here is an email that I just recieved from Roy The Tech Guy:

"Joel:
Well, it's like this. I've been attempting to set up ONE Wordpressinstall on the server for the last two weeks, every time it's told methat MySQL won't allow it to connect so it can set it's database up. Inan effort to get everything all set up again, I did a reinstall ofportage (the central package manager for Gentoo) and discovered thatMySQL now refuses to let ANY wordpress install connect to it's database.Frustrated I issued what I thought at the time was the reboot command tosee if clearing out the lock directory would help only to find that Ihard shut down the machine instead of rebooting it. Jim is aware thatthe server needs to be restarted and I'm sure it'll be back up sometimethis week.HOWEVER with the SQL issues unresolved (and essentially fucked) we'rebasically without a feed until I can make the trip up (probably sometimethis week) to back up our podcasts, reformat the harddrive and reinstalland reconfigure the entire system.

_roy_"

So until the man gets to reinstall everything on our server, it looks like we'll be down again. Unfortunately these things happen. It just always seems to happen with the worst timing possible around here. However, we will still be doing a live show tonight at The Marketplace located on NMU's Campus, so be sure to turn out for that. If for no other reason than to bitch at us for this latest fuck up on our part.

Sorry gang, but we will get this taken care of ASAP, and we still hope to see you all tonight!

~peace, props, & chicken pox

WE HAVE A WINNER!

Posted by Joel Polkinghorne

We sent out a contest at the beginning of April while SBJ was on Ghostly Talk for listeners to name the new paranormal show that is now in pre-production. We got many, many responses, but the winner is here!

The new viewer-driven show from SBJ Productions will be called "Reality Revealed," and our winner is Marcus Leader! Congratulations!

Reality Revealed will soon have its own dedicated page here at SBJ Productions. We thank all those that submitted names, and keep it here for the newest in IP media.

Server Go Boom.

Its a sad day here at SBJ Productions as we lost our server. It was a strong, noble server, and it will be missed.

Unfortunately this means that all shows will not be accessible until we get the new server up and running, which won't be until this weekend at the earliest. We will post here though as soon as we get the server, and its running.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

So let WUPX know that you DEMAND that The YWO Show become a part of Radio X. You can email the station manager, Todd Ward at toward@nmu.edu. Also, hit up the Radio X forums (www.wupx.com).

Where's The YWO Show?!

Posted by Joel Polkinghorne

Hey kiddies. SBJ here to let you know that Google has marked the YWO Show site as a spam site! Yeah I know, The YWO Show is full of a lot of crap, but SPAM?! Come on!

For those of you that don't know, ywoshow.com, along with this site, is hosted via Google's Blogger service. We forward our domain to ywoshow.blogspot.com. The problem with this is that we have to adhere to Google's rules and are subject to their ever vigilant "Spam Guard." Somehow, this Spam Guard marks The YWO Show as spam yet I keep getting email from the Minister of Tobacco and Babies for Zimbawai asking me to liberate his money in my INBOX over there at Google's other baby GMail. Maybe if The YWO Show had the sum of 1.8 million dollars "unjustifiably" taken by the government, we would be seen in the sympathy light, and allowed to creep through.

So if you're wondering where you're weekly fix is, the show IS mixed and ready to go, and I've taken the steps from Google to reinstate ywoshow.com, its just a matter of time. But sleep easy, SBJ will not rest until this grave injustice is taken care of.
