Just Beat It
Once again Songsmith proves that perhaps something that is musically wrong can be so right:
Episode 108 - "No, my friend, that's DEMOCRACY coursing through my veins"
Continuing to wake up in a brand new America, the Fair Use Tribunal triumphantly trudges through Episode 108, proving that we really must have had 100 throwaway episodes that'll never be posted before the wagon took off without us here.
Topics being thrown around like Dick Chaney's spine in an "enthusiastic moving situation" this week includes: Gyms, midgets, AIDS, bleach, voting, Cloverfield monsters (again!), tweaking, the Inauguration, Kanye West's 'fro mullet, and much much more. For once we have a YouTube video that pretty much sums up an entire episode in one tasty musical morsel. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you KISS:

Breakin' and Poppin' with Carlton Banks
As MTV keeps telling us, the world changed last night. And as such, to commemorate this inaugural that will be forever frozen in time, I attended the Chibi-Clan Nudity's Fake Inaugural Ball and Annual Fire Drill a mere 309 miles from Washington DC. Of course, Obama didn't come speak to the tenths of 1 person who was there, but don't think I didn't impress the crowd nonetheless. It's all thanks to Carlton Banks:
In literally no time I was flipping my friend's minds with mind-flipping backspins and verbing my friend's nouns with adjective proper nouns.

Microsoft says "F**K Tha' Police"
With Microsoft Windows 7, Bill Gates and company attempts to combat Apple's Garage Band with their sheer midi-awesomeness that is the autotune for everything but vocals: Songsmith. Give the program a vocal track, and it'll randomly generate its own music for it.
Or you can give it a famous vocal track and laugh at how horribly Songsmith messes it all up...

Episode 107 - "I think my Tivo is Mr. Skin"
You are waking up to a brand new America, Americans!
Checking in, and out, and in, and then out again like a podcast sweatshop, Fair Use Law brings its seventh episode onto you. That's right, we're the Keebler Elves of podcasting, except one of us has a restraining order against him from trees. Bonus points if you can guess which.
How so?
Well, the tribunal this week tackles the big issues: Uranium, the Dark Knight, Africa, Pee Wee's Big Adventure, Moonwalker, deadpools, and college financial aid. Honestly, folks, the ADHD was not false advertising. If you or one of your personalities doesn't find something to relate to this week, you are only lying to yourself.
Remember listeners: if you happen upon a funky Inaugural Bash this Tuesday, there is only one dance sensation that is indeed sweeping this very nation. Ladies and gentleman, I present to you the Funky Duckman:
We do, of course, give a solemn salute to last administration's dance of choice: "Do the Dude Love; Do the Ric Flair!"

Ladies and Gentleman, I Present Knorkator...
Scenario: you have traveled back in time to make a minor alteration to the entire time stream. Instead of killing baby Hitler or vetoing the Manhattan Project, you figure the best way to use this mind bending technology is to switch all of Rammstein's Quentin Tarantino DVDs with VHS copies of Garfield and Friends.
Congratulations, you'd just created a time paradox, as evidenced by the existence of Knorkator:

With the Wrestler hitting the limited Oscar release market and netting great reviews, might I suggest the subject for a possible sequel?

The 2008 Election... ANIME Style
Strangely, for the first time in internet history, a youtube video lives up exactly to its description:
Episode 106 - "I regret the sun"
After last week's all-singing, all-dancing episode of Fair Use Law, I am pleased to announce the arrival of episode One-Hundred-And-Six: the all-sniffling, all-coughing presentation.
As anyone who lives in New England in the winter will attest to: there's never a period in the winter where you don't feel at least a little bit sick. It's not unlike living in an entire chunk of a continent nestled deeply inside the sliced up carcass of a Hothian Tauntaun.
The Tribunal of hyperactivity is back in style, though, as subjects are thrown about in a mixing-Dayquil-and-Nyquil haze. Topics read like a strange game of Pictionary you have no hope of every winning: John Travolta, Real World: Brooklyn, Creepy Texting Thumbs, and more.
In an update from last week's episode, Fair Use Law has pulled some of its podcasting clout and were able to obtain the very first cutscene that opens up the epic DS adventure, Bob's Game. I present to you, for the very first time, the world debut:
Seriously, though, you'd play Wacky Deli DS in a heartbeat and you know it...
And the best way to finish any show note for any podcast, invention, object, or thing, is with this live action Japanese talk show re-enactment of Super Mario Bros.

Episode 105 - "I'd starve if this room wasn't filled with food"
As the internet comes to a complete stop like a troll editing a Wikipedia page about a 1996 story arc of the Wolverine ongoing comic series, episode 5 of the Fair Use Law podcast is now in the bag.
You might ask yourself, how did I get here? And you might ask yourself, who owns this big beautiful car? And you might ask yourself, just what will episode 5 of the Fair Use Law podcast mean to me? I can answer one of those questions: you entered the room via the doorway.
What episode 5 of the podcast means for me is a not so tearful last episode with 4th wheel Skeesix as he returns to North Carolina or Georgia or Alabama or whatever damn state he's from. The moment might be a bit more bittersweet if he wasn't so proud of his gift of Meet the Spartans to yours truly. That movie still stings and I haven't even watched it yet, folks. If you enjoyed Jimmy's two hours of podcast rocking power, don't fret, he should return over the summer or perhaps if one of us loses a tooth and leaves it under our pillow.
In podcast topical news, we touched on a number of news subjects this week. First and foremost, both on the show and in our hearts, is the triumphant and inspiration story of a shark, a precariously placed water slide, an almost impossible dream, and eventual chlorine poisoning. Won't you join with us as we honor the memory of Water Slide Shark?
If you are wondering how Fair Use Enterprises liked Brad Pitt's latest movie, the Curious Case of Benjamin Button, I'm sad to say that outsourcing our planned movie review viewing to a randomly armed guy in Philadelphia was not one of our brightest ideas.
And finally, but certainly not at all least, we come to the Curious Case of Bob's Shitty Nintendo DS game. What started off as one man's inevitable failure at programming a self proclaimed "retail ready" DS gaming experience has now ended in what just might be the saddest attempt at protesting ever. Apparently the marketing strategy of never letting publishers or Nintendo themselves see your actual game in paranoid fear that they will steal your ideas (which look suspiciously like an RPG Maker game) wasn't the best way to get your game on the shelves of Best Buy. Since the story initially broke last month, Bob has continued to go off the rails, now issuing an ultimatum that he believes Nintendo can't ignore. Ironically, as he threatens Nintendo of Japan, claiming that, by not publishing his game their profits will plummet, he's already working on an iPhone port. So keep that download in mind if you have a window of time open in between playing actual, good games from iTunes and laughing at him to care.
