The random podcasts

The random podcasts

By Darnell Johnson a.k.a. DJ Benz

It's a random podcast. Anything could happen. I could sing, I could play the keyboard, you name it. It's anything random. I may even throw some new stories in from time to time. It could be what I might've had for dinner last night, or a special show I watched two. Follow me on Twitter, @216music

Tecmo Bowl

Tecmo Bowl

The game grumps play Tech football. I had to feature this, because my uncle used to play tech mobile way back. Well, I think not going to use to do it too. However, my auntie was not into football like my uncle was. And so was I. Even though I was a kid in the 90s, I didn\u2019t really see what football is really like. I\u2019ve actually looked at the games, but just never really thought of how the game is played. So enjoy my childhood memories from the game grumps. I don\u2019t feel like editing this description either. So when it is, is what it is. Yeah. Fuck it!

All about music boxes

All about music boxes

The title says it all. The show is all about music boxes. I asked the question what music boxes do you remember. Send your responses to DJ Benz. Try that again. dj.benz_304@iCloud.com. I will look at those responses as soon as I can. Thank you. No, to the music boxes that I featured. No? Now was what I meant. We start out with the Brahms lullaby, and finish off with a Japanese song. Edith Piaf\u2018s Levine Rose was into, and Frank Sinatra somehow showed up unfinished at the end. Weird isn\u2019t it? I welcome your responses to my email. That address again is dj.benz_304@iCloud.com. Thank you for listening, and, praise the Lord!

I started out talking about Spotify, and having a free trial. This is awesome, but who wants to pay $10 a month? I mean, come on. Do I really want this. I mean do I really want this? Then I got on the keyboard, and started out playing angels we have heard on high. That was one of the holiday songs that I\u2019ve done. Also, I did a few regulars too.
