BJ & Bill The Podcast

In this episode of the BJ and Bill podcast, we celebrate a significant milestone: our 208th episode, marking four years of podcasting! We reflect on our journey, reminiscing about our time on the radio and the countless episodes we've produced together. We kick off the episode by discussing the recent milestone of the TV show Big Brother reaching its 1000th episode, sparking a lively debate about television records and the longevity of shows like The Simpsons. As we dive into the world of sports, we talk about the upcoming football season, including the unusual decision to start games on Wednesdays, and ponder the implications of having football every night of the week. Our conversation takes a personal turn as we share health updates and the challenges of aging. We also touch on the importance of gratitude and the blessings of good health. In a special segment, we welcome Gentry Odom, the mastermind behind the Podcast Playground Network and BJ's son. Gentry shares insights into the network's growth, the evolution of podcasting, and his exciting new project, Creator Rabbit, which aims to streamline content creation and monetization for creators. As we wrap up the episode, we encourage our listeners to connect with us on social media and share their thoughts. We express our gratitude for the support we've received over the years and look forward to many more episodes. Join us for this celebratory and insightful episode!

BJ Odom... live and on location in Helen, Georgia! BJ and wife Susan are vacationing this week, with travels to Savannah and Helen, GA, and then on to Chattanooga, TN. Tune in for the full report on how it's going.    Other conversational nuggets: stories about tubing mishaps, dining choices, and the challenges of traveling with a dog in a stroller (no kidding!). BJ shared updates on his electric car charging experiences and navigating winding roads.   Lots more... AI voice stuff (BJ is making a splash)... getting good sleep in old age (not easy), and more fun stuff.

It's vacation time, and this week - before the vacationing starts - BJ and Bill thought about skipping a week's episode, while BJ is on the road. Even their boss - BJ's son - has suggested taking a bit of time off for the summer... but the boys aren't convinced. They're used to real radio work, where there was no time off! (Heck, they even worked some holidays and weekends). What's to happen? Not sure... stay tuned.   Other topics of conversation: Who pays for meals out? ... BJ's cardiac rehab progress... self-publishing books and more, including an idea for a BJ and Bill cruise! (Or, maybe one for the Gift of Life Podcast, BJ's other podcast project.)  PS - Get your copy of BJ's great book, "More Parts Than a Chicken Nugget" on Amazon. Makes a great gift! Just click here.

It's Episode 202 - on this week's show, BJ and Bill talk about Caitlin Clark of the WNBA and her record-breaking 45-point game this past week. In more sporting news, Spain won the world FIFA soccer championship (or as the Europeans say, "football"). Ai news: BJ shared his new voice-over work on 11 Labs platform, earning his first payment of $12.14. Impressive! Have you heard of "dirty soda?" Apparently, it's a new thing, and the boys also talked about that... to the point where Bill had to go online and look it up, just to be sure. Yes, it is indeed "a thing."  Thanks for joining us!  PS - Get your copy of BJ's great book, "More Parts Than a Chicken Nugget" on Amazon. Makes a great gift! Just click here.
