Just a thought, is it possible that now that you have the extra room youve "unpacked" items that come from the time when you did smoke ?
 
sorry i can never tell anyone apart, i think it was jeff ? (valley girl accent ?)
mentioned having the room in a new house to put props on display. then later smoke was smelled, i wondered if some of the things that now had room for display, may have been packed at a time when he still smoked.

Not all of us listen live:) Jeff has a Valley girl accent lol? Well, I'm American so it might sound different to me. He says "syllable" waaay different than I've ever heard. Other than that, he's what I consider "normal" in terms of speaking. I was surprised to hear people think David and Gene sound alike. These are usually people that don't live in the States.

I been wondering where Jeff moved to. He leave his state?

I'll listen to the show later.
 
Mike you really have trouble telling them apart? At this point 2 years after the show has been going?

Gene, David, Jeremy, Jeff and Greenfield all sound extremely unique to me. I have no idea how you would not be able to tell them apart... must be just one of those personal things I guess.

Others have said Gene and David sound alike. Usually people with Brit accents I think. You an Aussie correct? Think Mike is in the UK. Sorry if I forgot. I try at least.

I'm just happy I don't have a southern accent after living in NC all my life. Raeven, how bout you? Then again, we often sound differently to ourselves. I've spoke with gene several times on the phone, maybe he can be the judge. Besides the cellphone talks, Gene and David sound identical as they do on "air". Gene sounded deeper on the Jerome show. Think he must have been sick.

After thinking about it. If I were a brit, the way Jeff says "yeah" could be construde as a surfer dude slightley. Valley girl was a bit poor of a description though lol.
 
Anyway, pretty average show this week. What the bleep did they even talk about?

This episode felt like someone sitting in the car trying to start the ignition for a couple hours. Occasionally it would turn over and the engine would run for a minute of two before stalling.

When Jeff said that turning on baseboard heaters after a long hiatus causes a definite "electrical burning" smell, he's way off. It is the dust on the elements that is burning off - totally different smell.

Come on man, let's get our smells right, Jeff. If we start slipping like this, there's no telling how low we'll end up.

That's funny...were you in my room and I didn't see you?
 
I grew up with two parents who smoked--might explain chronic bronchitis. I left home at 20 (stayed 2 years for the local jr. college). In any case, all you have to do is talk about smoking or cigarettes and I can smell the smoke. It is somehow so ingrained into my brain that I get a 'whiff of smoke' just by talking about it--like right now.
 
Cigarette smoke has tar in it. The tar gets everywhere once it is exhaled. You can never get it completely off of anything, so you will always have things that smell like smoke.

Smoking is a filthy habit.
 
yeah its insidious, stuff.

as i listened to the "mystery" of the smoke, and taking all the little facts i heard, it just seems likely to me that now that Mr Ritzmann, having been a smoker 3 years ago, has the extra room in the new house he may have unpacked a box of books sitting in storage say at his parents house etc. items that might have been packaged at a time when he was a smoker, now being unpacked at last in the new spacious den

i have a lot of second hand books on my bookshelves, and some have another tale to tell if you use your nose instead of your eyes to read them.

its prob not a valley girl accent, but something in the oh's said to me if he said "gag me with a spoon" it would have sounded "right"

i mostly listen at fast speed as well so everyone gets "chipmunked" to a degree, i do this because i have to concentrate harder to make sense of the high speed speech and frankly i enjoy the mental workout .

of course i always slow down to normal for the adds ;)
 
Why are you all picking on Jeff? I am glad he is back. I agree the show spent too much time on the smoke subject but Jeff was only telling what his son experienced and was wondering if it was a ghost or something mundane.
 
When Jeff speaks, to be frank, I often wonder why he thinks anyone else would necessarily find what he has to say particularly interesting.

That's real nice. Tell me something, do you ever realize there's an actual person behind a voice and a computer, or are we just fucking characters in a movie to you.

I was asked if anything came up at the new house. I answered the question with minor stuff I thought was odd. Why is it that after all I've exposed here to this audience, that I'm getting such shitty attitudes for not having anything so significant to report?

And again with the accent shit? C'mon. I didn't even talk more then a few minutes.

Dave-I love ya my friend, but don't ask me back on again.
 
Jeff we do want you back. Don't pay attention to the people who have nothing better to do than talk about your accent.
 
I've experienced a smoking smell when there were no past or current smokers at home, no residue, etc...it smelled like someone was smoking in the same room I was in. This is when a lot of negative-feeling things were going on, too, so I associated that smell with the negative spirit that was around me for a while. Once I cleared it out, the smoking smell stopped.
 
Jeff, my apologies. I will retract my previous post. I do think you are real person and it was rude of me to make such personal comments.
 
Sorry I'm picking on Jeff. I'm just saying that if you are going to be on a podcast you should try to be entertaining about it (and Jeremy is an excellent role-model in that regard). To me the smoke smell 'incident' barely merited a mention in the first place and I don't feel it deserved a 15 minute long dissection in exhaustive detail. As they say at the scene or a car crash 'nothing so see here, move on please...'

Now you are just pissing me off what people have to be entertaining and not serious WTF!
