Coming off a pair of rather shitty weeks, Skipper and The Robot don’t have a whole lot of chipper topics to discuss on this weeks installment of STRLA. Instead, we discuss the army base shooting in Fort Hood, the high school rape drama unfolding in northern California.  We visit the pages of LA Weekly and discuss racial tension and L.A.’s depressing lack of interesting things to do this week as well as Lou Dobbs, the most annoying man in the world. Also, our hosts confirm that plain Life cereal is the most depressing breakfast option available, unless you’re a quaker.  In the wake of the Fort Hood shooting, Skip and Robot reflect on Muslim sentiments about the Islamic shooter responsible for 10+ deaths and 30+ wounded. And of course, a check in with the hard working girls of the Lingerie Football Leauge!

After our brief session in the studio, our hosts make their way out to Venice to partake in First Fridays, an Abbot Kinney outdoor art and music love fest that takes place on the first Friday of every month.  Here we meet a lively pedestrian and run in to Andrew Freeman from episode 001 and have an adventure with him and his Travel Channel friends!  Skip and Robot also visit the Coolhaus ice cream truck and a late night Venice beach house party with Andrew Heilprin and musical friends!

This episode features music and interviews from Blue Eyed Son, the music brainchild of Venice musician and artist Andrew Heilprin.

Halloween is upon us and this week Skipper T and The Robot make good on their promise last week to broadcast from the moon. This episode features a recap or the Lingerie Football League, of course, and their new commercial as well as discussion of Small Wonder, Falcon’s on-air fart and the depressing lack of professional sports teams in Montana.  Skip and Robot discuss being on the moon, why the Yankees suck, the new record from Built to Spill recorded at King Size Sound Labs and produced by Dave Trumfio. After a explanation of Delaware’s Punkin-Chunkin festival and the trip back from the moon, our hosts pay a visit to West Hollywood for some Halloween mayhem.

This episode features music from Built to Spill as well as a trip to West Hollywood for the WEHO Halloween Carnival, one of LA’s biggest parties.
