A crazy-ass podcast today, and on the surface it seemed so tame.

I mean, what could go wrong when you invite a guy on who has vowed not to send a single dollar to the oil companies. Matt Moreno has plastered his roof with enough solar panels to cover his energy needs and then some. Heck, the power company pays HIM for power now. Marty and Matt geek out over their solar systems.

Today also marks the return of our feature, “YOU ARE SPECIAL TOO,” where we invite a podcast listener on the show and find out what makes them unique. Marjie Bowker is in the spotlight. A Seattle teacher who moved to Vietnam for two years, stopped washing her own hair (you pay people to do that for you), bought a scooter and became a regular international listener of the podcast.

All that, plus Blatant stereotyping hijynx on the podcast today

We have a new mixing Board!

We have a new mixing board for the podcast!!

This is a picture of the board.

Now, if you hear any bad sounds, it’s not the board it’s the guy operating it.

Our two-day celebration of our 100th episode behind us, we can now focus on the next big entry on our calendar – B U M B E R S H O O T!

Our final pre-festival guest joins us on the podcast today – Brian Vogan and his Good Buddies (Northwest Court Stage, Monday, September 6th, 1PM) .

A wonderfully talented Seattle musician and music instructor, Brian Vogan plays that cool type of cross-generational kids music that kids on the playground are always talking about when they’re talking about cool cross-generational music. Which is a lot of the time. Crazy kids.

Brian Vogan and his Good (and blurry) Buddies. L to R: Ben Baier (bass), Brian Vogan, Marty, Barrett Jones (electric guitar, producer), Jodi.

The Marty Riemer Show podcast will be at Bumbershoot all weekend capturing highlights for you and also doing a live WEB/PODcast everyday from the Seattle Center grounds.

Today’s Marty Riemer Show picks up where it left off yesterday, celebrating our first 100 episodes with our picks for rawest moment – a category we call “Podcast Gone Wild” – Marty & Jodi’s parents’ favorite guests, and the top-3 awkward moments of the first 100. How do we whittle that list down?

Plus, show producer, Yaz, administers a “Know Your Show” quiz to see how well Marty and Jodi know their own program.

Today Marty and Jodi look back at their storied podcasting career – all 100 episodes – recalling their favorite guests, their favorite podcast moment overall, their finest musical discoveries and so much more.

In fact, there IS so much more. So much so, that we can’t squeeze it all into this one episode. Join us for Part 2 of our 100th episode celebration tomorrow as well.

Happy 100th! It’s officially our 100th episode, although the party takes place tomorrow and Wednesday. Tune in for that as we recall some of the funniest, most awkward, most musical moments of the past 100.

Today it’s the band that kicks things off at Bumbershoot, Becki Sue and Her Big Rockin’ Daddies (11:45AM, Saturday 4, 2010, Mural Stage), the Puget Sound’s most celebrated blues band.

Everyone should have these guys play at their 100th birthday.

It’s quite frequently said – we assume in a loving way – that Marty and Jodi don’t know s&#%!!! (But really does it warrant three exclamations?)

Turns out to be true, they don’t know S%$&, for when the Prince of Poop – Dan Corum, manager of the Woodland Park Zoo‘s Zoo Doo program – stopped by today for a show-and-tell quiz of different types of zoo animal scat it left Jodi and Marty stupified. Who know giraffe crap looks like delicious chocolate malted milk balls.

Dan also explains the ferocious passion that Seattleites feel for composted zoo feces. Seriously, to even be given the opportunity to buy this stuff you have to enter a lottery – details HERE.

It takes a brave man to follow our dung discussion, but Mt. Vernon musician, clothing designer, philanthropist and carpenter (did we really just book Jesus after the poop doc?) Levi Ware rises to the task. Levi’s in a heated Battle of the Bands competition and would appreciate your last minute support. In addition, Levi designs some beautiful clothing to benefit Ugandan orphans. That’s Marty’s daughter sporting some of Levi’s threads.

Not to be too bossy, but when you’re done scooping poop, voting for Levi Ware’s music, and supporting Ugandan orphans with your clothes purchases, we’d like to ask you to Join Marty and Jodi next Wednesday, September 1st, 4:30-6:30 at the Teatro Zinzanni tent to celebrate Bumbershoot’s 40th birthday. It’s a free, family friendly event with cupcakes and ice cream, and the cost of admission is just a birthday hat of your own design. Design a hat, wear it to the party and you’re in. DETAILS HERE.

With the WNBA’s Seattle Storm embroiled in a Western Conference best-of-three semi-final match up with LA (Seattle leads 1-0, next game: Saturday, August 28, Staples Center), would their CEO have the time and the wherewithal to stop by the podcast? Of course! Where else would she be?

The Seattle Storm’s #1 CEO, Karen Bryant, stops by the show to stoke the fan fire for the playoffs.

And if that weren’t enough Camille Bloom jumps up for a surprise appearance (that we’d had on the books for weeks). Camille was on the westside anyhow prepping for an appearance at the Hiawatha Concerts in the Park series tonight, Thursday, August 26.

Jamaican music seems to appeal to all ages, all cultures.

WE feel the same way about Bellingham music.

Combine the two, and woah! Get ready to breakdown all musical barriers.

Yogoman Burning Band, a Bellingham foursome, fuses ska, funk and reggae into the most danceable sound. Really, you’ll dance.

Plus, in preparation for our 100th PODcast, which we will be “airing” next week on Tuesday and Thursday – in two parts – Yaz quizzes Marty and Jodi on how well they know their own show. Turns out, Jodi knows it very well and her partner is unfamiliar with this Marty Riemer character and his silly show.

Debonair and sophisticated. Two words frequently used to describe the Marty Riemer Show podcast.

No? Not buying it? Well, after today’s show that will all change.

Listen as The Jason Parker Quartet, a groovin’ jazz ensemble, bring some style to a podcast that typically thrives on awkwardness. And watch as this band of four are forced to wake up and perform earlier than any jazz musician in the history of American jazz.

The Jason Parker Quartet are also involved in a charity event Marty is coordinating called HUNGRY, WILL SING FOR FOOD, August 31st, 2010. Marty has recruited dozens of talented musicians – Jason Parker & Co. among them – to play (busk, actually) in and around the Safeco Field to raise funds for OPERATION: SACK LUNCH, the largest outdoor meal provider for the hungry and homeless in Seattle.

Get your discounted Mariner tickets for the August 31st game by visiting HERE . Ten dollars from each discounted ticket purchased thru this site will will go to Operation: Sack Lunch.
