Episode 15

June 29, 2015

Hey Everybody! Kevin here again, with links and notes for Episode 15. While I have your attention, I have a small request. Would you please send me some feedback on this episode via Twitter @_kevinreilly? Any feedback is welcome; good, bad or indifferent. Mostly I'd like to hear your thoughts on the audio quality. I've had a report that it's a little too quiet on some platforms. What has been your experience?

Is there anything you'd like to hear us cover on SoT, or a beer you'd like to hear featured on "Hopdate"? Your voice is valuable to us! Make yourself heard!

Ok... on to the links and notes. In no particular order:

The Grand Sierra Resort and Casino in Reno, NV (https://www.grandsierraresort.com/) where James and Family stayed during their vacation.

6 minute montage of Charles Barkley's horrendous golf swing. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxLkEPb5DzI) To be fair; he has since fixed it.

Neil DeGrasse Tyson on those who deny Climate Change (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=plReQcO6sz0)

Kyle MacDonald; The "Red Paperclip" guy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2D_EOzSX_yQ). This guy is an inspiration. His grass roots approach is exactly the way I see podcasting.

Jo Koy's Carry-On Vine. (https://vine.co/v/MlVjrd1ZYTj)

HopDate Beers:

Dan the 10,000 hour golf guy

The needle skidded across the record at 1:50 for me (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKwJMiKep8E)

I applaud the audacity of his experiment, but I'm incredulous about his so-called "sacrifices". He strikes me more as a rich guy who's talented at self promotion. Watch the clip and decide for yourself. The red paperclip guy is far more inspiring to me.

SCOTUS gay marriage decision (http://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/14pdf/14-556_3204.pdf)written by Justice Kennedy
