Every year around this time, I think of all the accomplishments that have to do with this show. In this episode you will hear about how the year went, the friendships that were made, the goal of producing, and recording a show in studio or live. It has always been about the people that enjoy  the show and how it impacts their lives.

In August of 2010, we’ll be going on anniversary #3, who would have thought that? I wouldn’t…but after a “speed racer” type of year that 2009 was, I am sure that New Years Eve will come fast approaching again. I personally thought that 09 was running on rocket fuel. Where did the time go? Just amazing.

Every week that I was producing this show with the help from the core base and new listeners from Facebook, we have seen the addition of the “live show” called Random Access Radio. We have truly come full circle this year. We were in the midst of a “round table” format that ended in March/April and a short absence from the web to come back strong with a new format here by doing music. In addition to the recorded show that is Sound Check, RAR came back alive to give the listeners even more. We have introduced a video channel, chat and the live stream of the show on Tuesday nights at 9:15 EST. All we have seen is great things and I am looking forward to a strong year for both shows.

Strength comes from the people that hold you up, similar to pillars in a building. The core group of listeners has held this show to a standard of incredible music, deep cuts, and the best production that money can’t buy. We truly are on a “low budget…”

I know that I will miss many people if I thanked everyone for a great 2009, so…If you are interested in seeing all the people that made a huge impact in the show, read some of the prior show write ups and connect with them on Twitter and Facebook.

I don’t want to single anyone out in this post because I don’t want to play favorites at all, so for those of you who are working hard to bring in new listeners, thank you…your kindness is off the chart and those efforts go hand in hand for your passion for this show. Thank you.

In Episode 107, you will hear some stuff that you wouldn’t hear even on a weekly basis on any radio, and even some tracks that you may have forgotten.

Please comment on the show in the comments, and I look forward to another bang up year here on Sound Check with CK.

Be well,

You’re probably asking what is “pelvic distortion?” I will give you the short story about how this name came up.

Episode 106 is a set list that was made up by a long time friend, fellow roommate, and a fan of the show. He said that he would like to get his set on the show some week. I said to him on the night before Thanksgiving to give me his top 15 that he would play if it was his show. He put pen to napkin, mind to the Blackberry and came up with a set list faster than you can say “Flash Gordon.” After looking at the tracks that he chose, I immediately said, this would cause anyone “pelvic distortion.” After hearing this show you will know much more about Schmitty…no doubt about it!

With all the great things going on at Random Access Radio and the live show, it was great to do a recording and get back in the groove as I have done in the past. I hope you like what he chose, and if you do or don’t…leave him a comment on this post for Episode 106.

As you can see, this post is Rated for Explicit Lyrics and is also noted at the beginning of the show. You have been advised.

Don’t forget to follow the “all request podcast” on Twitter for requests to Sound Check, send them to @ck67 (and follow me) and for the live show for Random Access Radio, send them to @rarlive (and of course….please follow!)

Now, go on and enjoy Schmitty’s play list for Episode 106!

Be well,
