Recorded 08-19-2009: The first BUCKET episode in two years welcomes new co-host Louie Dee, and we clumsily find our way back into a groove.

• What is this microphone thing you speak of? And where did BUCKET Jen go? And Who’s THAT guy?
  
• BUCKET returns as much of the indy podcast world has gone “corporate”. Is there even place for BUCKET out there anymore? We discuss, as we sip our corporate soft drinks/beers/chips.
  
• Also, BUCKET is now “Remixed” in its new form … we look back at the greatest “remixes” in history. Sprite Remix comes to mind… and we ramble on about the sudden proliferation of Mountain Dew and all its colors. ADD City!!

Louie Dee joins the cast of BUCKET

Note from Corey: Hi BUCKETHeads, I’m proud to welcome the newest member of the BUCKET cast you’ll hear as we fire up the microphones for real on August 21 … my good friend and softball compatriot, Louie Dee.

Below is his bio … you’ll hear the fiery, pull-no-punches Louie Dee on promos all this week on our podcast feed.

New BUCKET co-host Louie Dee

Louie Dee is one of the co-hosts of the new BUCKET podcast.

Often the liberal yin to Corey’s conservative yang, Lou doesn’t mind being his second banana – because, in Lou’s words, “people are too lazy to pick on the one in the back.”

Under his “government name,” Lou is the Editorial Director for a fundraising and marketing company by day and a freelance sports writer by night.

But he’s no stranger to the airwaves, either; Lou is a frequent contributor to “The Sport Buffet with Matt West” on 1080-AM ESPN Radio Orlando as an NFL analyst, has a “highlight” reel of gigs from his stint as a child actor and may or may not have a sex tape, depending on how much money you have to offer him.

Otherwise, he’s your average American male. Lou is an ardent New York sports fan that somehow also roots for the Philadelphia Eagles, UNC Tar Heels and Florida Gators, quotes movie lines entirely too much and spends the rest of his unhealthy existence playing golf, softball or bar trivia.

Of course, Lou is a Gemini, which means there’s a whole other side to him, too…and when “Angry Lou” comes out to rant about something that’s not sitting right in his world, anything can happen.

We’re still not sure how the heck Lou and Corey co-exist – our only guess is corndogs.

Oh, yeah, and Lou also thinks monkeys = hilarity.

Mini-sode 2: Corey leaves the Pirates’ ship!

[gigya-embed src=”http://cdn.ui.mevio.com/widgets/mwm/MevioWM.swf” quality=”high” wmode=”transparent” flashvars=”distribConfig=http://www.mevio.com/widgets/configFiles/distribconfig_mwm_pcw_default.php&autoPlay=false&container=false&rssFeed=/%3FmId=6996140%26format=json&playerIdleEnabled=false” bgcolor=”#000000″ name=”Mevio” align=”middle” allowFullScreen=”true” allowScriptAccess=”always”]

MINI-SODE 2: COREY LEAVES THE PIRATES’ SHIP

After watching in agony at a flurry of trades that sent two popular players away for cost-saving reasons, and living through 17 years of futility and losing seasons, Corey wants a new team to cheer for, and he wants YOU to help him choose his new team.

Visit Auction 120453724410 on eBay to bid on Corey’s fan allegiances, plus his favorite Pirates jersey and ballcap. 10% of the proceeds goes to the Mario Lemieux Foundation’s efforts to fight cancer.
