Dorktown Podcast - Episode 75

Simply put: This episode of Dorktown is for the giving fans of Dorktown. That's because it gets a little self-serving as there are no guests, a lot of talk about the Dorktown Anniversary Show, Dorktown's favorite "listener" is called and there is a Star Wars related tangent that can only be enjoyed by the hosts... and of course there is too many bad words. But when you get to 75 episodes, self-serving and fowl language is bound to happen.

So, you've been warned: It's NOT SAFE FOR WORK (or Dorktown haters).

Dorktown 73: Patrick Contreras Band invades

Patrick Contreras

Fresno musician, Patrick Contreras, has been making the Fresno podcast rounds and has finally stopped by Dorktown to visit with Bells, Becky and Mikey. But that's not the only guest, PCB drummer Jason and bass/keyboard player Quetzal are hanging too, along with Ms. Joey aka Lola La Chola.


We don't want to give it all away but the band will be talking about shutting down the Tower District (pretty much) June 20th and they play a new song live! Plus, Joey gives up some juicy Smog City gossip at the end.


FOWL LANGUAGE AND LOUDNESS WARNING: There's a lot of it. Tell the kids "ear muffs" then listen to DorktownEpisode73.mp3 by clicking and downloading.

  • Child Protective Services will be called after this.

  • Clovis Cops vs. Fresno Fuzz.

  • Water Crisis: Pissed off Ray Appleton and Kim Stevens audio.

  • The days when Sudz in the City was nice.

  • Bells tells us what to expect at the Hye Festival and gives us a Armenian lesson.

  • Ryan Seacreast replacing Fresno's Lori West.

  • Fonzy Eyyys.

Dorktown Epsisode 71 - Newsroom Cafe

Fresno 162


Dorktown #71 was recorded at Kern and L in the Newsroom Cafe. Like most Dorktowns, this episode comes with a classic Not Safe For Work or Babies warning. Seriously. And sorry for the audio levels here, they are simply all over the place... you know, like always. Some things to expect:

  • A slow start with funky audio.

  • What posses a person to open up a Downtown Fresno business right now?

  • What the hell are the Rainbow Girls?

  • Is Ashley hot?

  • Drinking at Disneyland.

  • The Blue Bayou and secret clubs for "furries" and Donald Duck.

  • Everybody's first concerts.

  • Big Hat Days at Clovis.

  • Comcast has dating "On Demand"?

  • Things get out of hand.

  • Fonzy Eyyss.

Special thanks to the Newsroom Cafe for letting Dorktown bastardize their cool little hangout. Everyone should check this place out (because it's awesome) and support Downtown Fresno businesses.
