Jim and Barb Work From Home

After a hiatus that lasted nearly a year we have forgotten how this thing works but we still chucked a new episode out into the world. I guess this is the best topic we could come up with. Nobody is going to listen to this episode based on the title. Send us an email:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠jimandbarbworkfromhome@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠

You know we lost our phone number right? That's just unfortunately how things go some times. Please don't call that phone number. We don't know who owns it now.

Jim and Barb record live from Barb's dining room so there is a lot of mouth and nose sound that comes from a setup like that unfortunately. Also our voicemail number has expired so don't call it any more.

Barb asks what you use to clean your cleaning implements and it all goes down hill from there. Also Barb invites a strange man into her home and he abruptly leaves when she's not buying what he's selling, and admits there is likely a list of people who want her dead that is completely unrelated to the strange. You'll have to listen for the full context, because I'm shameless. Leave...

From what I've read it seems like this is a "lifestyle" podcast so we just talk about whatever random stuff that pops into our heads which means that it has a very limited audience but people like niche things. Anyway, maybe you also think about dishwashers. Leave us a voice message: 402+913-0054 Send us an email:  ⁠⁠jimandbarbworkfromhome@gmail.com⁠⁠ Join us on Facebook:  ⁠⁠https://...

The previous version of this episode didn't have all the audio tracks. This one does. We did not secretly become a movie podcast. It was the intent to talk about this movie and we got there eventually, but we took the long way there through Couches, Beds, Work, and Tanzania. Anyway it's a good listen.

This was accidentally published as only Jim's audio and Barb requested that this stays always available to our listeners. We did not secretly become a movie podcast. It was the intent to talk about this movie and we got there eventually, but we took the long way there through Couches, Beds, Work, and Tanzania. Anyway it's a good listen.

Do you run a film festival? Do you want untrained amateur podcasters to cover the films you play? Call us! This is the kind of expert coverage you might expect if you pay for us to attend and promote your event. But it would be better because it wouldn't be just Barb and also it would be more timely. Trust me. Leave us a voice message: 402+913-0054 Send us an email:  ⁠jimandbarbworkfromhome@gm...

You ever think we would talk about cars this much? We didn't. anyway here's like an hours of us chatting and stuff we talk about cars. We find out if our voice mail works (which it does so please use it).

You try to get Barb to talk about anything and she immediately wants to talk about her car and her car problems. We did eventually get to the topic as noted in the title but first you have to listen to exciting stories of Catalytic Converters, Removable Faceplates, Mind Palaces, and More!

I don't know any more. We are basically just Car Talk. Much respect to Tom and Ray Magliozzi. Barb is disappointed that we don't have real topics and are just doing catch-up shows but she also didn't bring a topic to the table so this is where we are. We also talked about TVs, Dogs, and Roller Derby. We are on brand as always. Predictable some might say. Leave us a voice message: 402+9...

We recorded this episode back in April of 2023 but I forgot about it and so well it took a while for it to get out. Very little in this episode is still accurate except that Barb still has a list of cars that she is contemplating but has refused to do anything about. In the words of the late great Iron Shiek; "Never give up or you are big time jabroni." Leave us a voice message: 402+913-...

The 2022 series Willow landed on Disney+ in November and Jim and Barb watched some of it in December, and more of it in January and recorded a podcast about it in February and this podcast is getting released in March.

We completed another Lemons Rally. Check out the aftermath on our Purple Rain Instagram Page if you want to go backwards through time. Otherwise you can listen to us chatter about the experience a bit. We have questions for you though. What's the deal with Paducah? What's the deal with those signs that say Speed Monitored By Aircraft? Other topics include: • Barb's Roller Derby Production • Jim's...

Barb was a BINGO caller at the Minnesota State Fair. That's a pretty cool thing so we eventually talk about that. Who knew that you'd be listening to a podcast with a minor celebrity on?

Reboots revive beloved characters from our youth. Reboots allow creative people to tell new and interesting stories without needing to explain everybody's life story. Reboots are extremely profitable. Now that the Spider-Man movies are part of a multiverse do they count as reboots? We don't actually answer that question, but we think it is a good one that might make people listen to this episode b...

Couches, Sofas, Love Seats, Hide-A-Beds, Chaise Lounges, Davenports. They are the places you put your butts when you decide to do sit down and sometimes you need to buy one and sometimes you just have too many of them hanging around taking up space in your life and you need to get rid of them and replace them with something that actually fits your lifestyle and the vibe you are trying to create in...

Wikipedia defines a midlife crisis as "a transition of identity and self-confidence that can occur in middle-aged individuals, typically 45 to 65 years old." Neither of us hit the age range that they thing it should occur but we still talk around the topic and don't really come to any conclusions. If that's the sort of thing you are interested in then tune in and listen up. Leave us a voice messag...

Jim and Barb return to our respective homes and fire up the mics again. The surprise topic is the "Internet of Things" and it should come as a surprise to few of you that Jim railroads the conversation into raising awareness on how giving local law enforcement access to a civilian surveillance network is not a good thing. Other Topics Include: • Redefining a Week • Lemons Rally Recap • Local Weath...

We couldn't have Barb leave without recording one more live episode. It is still weird. Real weird. Also Jim breathes into the microphone a lot. Anyway if Barb ever wants to tell you any stories about her trip to Boston you can cut her off and tell her that you listened to this episode of the podcast. There really isn't much else she could tell you that we don't cover. Barb's schedule included: •...

For a limited time Jim and Barb are both working from home in the same home in Boston. To celebrate this momentous occasion one of our favorite listeners, Camille, baked us 4 different brownies following very strict scientific processes so we could compare and contrast. We had Pillsbury, Betty Crocker, Duncan Hines, and Camille's homemade recipe. We judged them based on look, smell, taste and text...
