What else but try to tell you what was really happening when your eyes were looking through?

"And we have a wonderful surprise tonight.   This is something many of us thought we wouldn't see again.   Entering back into the Podcasting arena, after taking a two-month hiatus is the ever-popular Halfshow.

But the question on everyone's mind tonight, is "Do they still have it?"   There has been debate, rumor, and great speculation as to whether or not this team still has what it takes to deliver top entertainment.

In the preliminary rounds there seem to be some hiccups in their performance, but there was still the grace and potential of what they are known to be.   Practice has been steady, intense, and grueling to get back on track for the hosts Jason and Me-saj. ... but does practice really make perfect?

It all comes down to this moment.   Practice means nothing if everything comes to nothing.   It's not the expedition but the actual grind that makes or breaks a podcast.   This is what these games are all about.   There are contenders, there are champions, there are the fallen, and then there are legends that rise from the ashes.

Tonight we find out just where The Halfshow lies." ~Justyn Thomas~

Deelishis - Rumpshaker - NEW Uploaded by Yannicklord

It's summertime and Me-saj & Jason cool off with a little water park fun at Splish Splash in Long Island, New York. Despite Me-saj getting a water enema on one of the rides they had a good time and she still was able to shake her Rumpshaker to Deelishis' new song. And if she wants to look good in that new bathing suit, she has to keep Jason fit by encouraging good eating habits. And by dumping all of her overweight friends? Find out why during the Healthy Half. Meanwhile, Jason was on the set of Lost Money with spotlight artist Tiaunte "pushover" Kelly from Flavor of Love Charm School. Tiaunte gives us the behinds the scenes scoop about what happened when the camera's turned off. Your Half features artist Ed "Shynehead" Cosico and Ms. Katrina Brown.

Entertainment News takes a break but will be back next time with Flavor of Love Charm School reject Tiaunte Kelly.   In the Healthy Half, Dr. Ian Smith's Extreme Fat Smash Diet was a bust.   And finally we have the second half of the interview with Sophia Ramos.

THE RONIN POETZ		12 STORIES HIGH

If life hands you a lemon, make lemonade. But be sure to add a little maple syrup and cayenne pepper and drink for 7 days. Me-saj and Jason endeavor to complete the Lemon Cleanser Diet once again. Listen to Jason's audioblog of the whole experience.

In the Entertainment News, Me-saj recalls the greatest R&B artists of the 1990's such as Xscape, SWV, and Mariah Carey. Can the artists of today compare? While you think about that, we got a comedy spot from a rising comedian The Romantic Funny Man a.k.a Shawn Cornelius of HA! Comedy club in NYC. In the MySpace moment we listen to sounds of Young Cleazy while we check out the lovely lades at VBlazin.

Oh and did we forget to mention our good friend Loot and his upcoming performance at R&R in NYC on September 27. Listen for more details.

Just like Paris Hilton, this show is so hot that it will make you touch the sun. But, you better put on your Blublockers . Jason was on the scene at the Prince concert in Bryant Park. We have the second half of the interview with spotlight artist JT & The Dirty Truth. Jason's Healthy Half is talking about KFC chicken getting sued . In the Entertainment News we hear snippets of the Paris Hilton song Turn It Up, Jay-Z boycotts a famous champagne distributor, and I Love the 90's recap of our favorite shows from People Magazine

In the spotlight segment JT of JT & The Dirty Truth discusses the meaning of Psychedelic Soul.

Back in full effect and banging our chests harder than an extra in Tarzan. The move out of the jungle is final and we talk about a few things that we will not miss about the old apartment. In birthday news, a trip to see the Broadway production of the Color Purple was Jason's gift to Me-saj for her birthday. Everybody already knows that Gemini's are a little wacky and when Me-saj points out a few weird things about the play they almost get kicked out of the theatre.

The Apple Store opening was a big event in NYC and Jason was on the scene with Half Show coverage. On the Healthy Half, Jason introduces us to the Caveman Medicine workout. You decide for yourselves if it is ridiculous or not. Entertainment News is jumping off with the America's worst R&B diss record by RL from the group Next. Master P has something to say with his new production of America's Next Top Hip-Hop Star. Finally the blind item will keep you guessing.

Back from our short hiatus, we hope that you all have enjoyed the
Purpose shows. It's been really busy here at The Half Show. Between moving and listening to Podcasts, we have lost track of time. As a bonus we have included a sample of our favorite shows. And Wendy from Gabber Jaw checks in on the Hotline before we take off for our interview with Keelah of Keelah's Soap. Her sweetly scented products are definitely
aromatherapy. However, Me-saj and Jason may need more than therapy after cleaning out the junk from the apartment and dodging moth ball sized hail.

Fortunately it's not the end of the world for you. Entertainment News
highlights the most recent celebrity oops. From the slaughter of hip-hop
(NaS) to Britney Spears boggling baby. My Space friends JT & The Dirty
Truth and Lizz Robbins are spotlighted. As well as Spice Promotions
model Contessa Atkins.

The Healthy Half is back! But before that we are celebrating the connection of Me-saj's DSL. It's spring and the Bird Flu is in the air--especially, on the NYC subways. However, we are healthy enough to watch America's Next Top Model with our favorite model Jade. The unanimous decision is that the new Fox reality show Unanimous is hands down loser.

We're talking about the Tribeca Film Festival in the Entertainment News. Me-saj believes that upcoming movies such as Poseidon, The Proposition, Crossover, Miami Vice, and Da Vinci Code could be 2006 blockbusters with a little name change.

The second half of the interview with Purpose is on. Our MySpace friends CocoJones and That Girl Que are worth talking about. And we can't forget about that classy lady Ms. Kyla Latrice and the Kentucky Derby.

ROFLcast checks in with highlights of the best of The Half Show. Although Me-saj's Verizon DSL connection is weak, she and Jason still manage to make this show interesting. A little trip to Home Depot and OfficeMax may have done the trick. Or not! The Alien News (f/k/a The Entertainment News) exposes Mike Tyson, Kevin Spacey, Hulk Hogan, and Usher. I think Michael Jackson and TomKitten may have to get in on this.

The first half of spotlight interview with Purpose is something that you don't want to miss.

Me-saj and Jason revitalitalize the show by taking a MetroNap. Larry  Green, Jr., co-owner of the MetroNaps location in downtown Manhattan, explains to you what it's all about. But don't sleep on the latest celebrity break-ups. In Entertainment News, Me-saj mourns the passing of the latest celebrity relationships that took a trip to SplitsVille; Bow Wow, Ciara, Russell Simmons, Kimora Lee Simmons, Naomi Campbell, and Mandisa. Mandisa?

In the second half of the interview with DJ Psylence, he talks about the money end of the business. But don't tune out the music in the background. Finally, the Word of the Day is back.

It seems like everyone is diggin' The Half Show. That includes Dismay Podcast and Clu. This show is moving faster than a game of Bullet Ball. Hear Me-saj and Jason's opinion of the new show American Inventor as well as of the crazy guy who cursed them out on the street. Jason enlightens everyone by giving us tips on chewing food.

AJ of All Axis Radio: Canada has made the right decision to listen to The Half Show. However, Me-saj and Jason may have to bail him out of jail if he doesn't stop tossing those darn eggs. Like AJ, you have chosen to be entertained; and entertained you will be. If not, try a MetroNap!

In the Entertainment News, Me-saj recaps the 2006 inductees of the Rock n' Roll Hall Fame. But, she has to put out an ABP on music stars of yesteryear. Enjoy Matthew's background music again during the second half of Jason's interview with spotlight artist Bryan Thomas.

The Half # 007 coming at you in Ones & Zeros. Lucky #7 has always been good to Me-saj and Jason and this show will be good to you as well. Check out the new Links Page with all of the past spotlight artists and our favorite podcasts. Jason has tried to vote for some of our favorites on Podcast Alley but apparently they do not want his vote?

The movie The Color Purple has always been a favorite of Me-saj but is she willing to starve to watch it for the millionth time? The bad food at the Chinese Buffet surely taught her a lesson after that mistake.

Jason's Healthy Half is back. But could Jason be a Healthy Half fraud? Me-saj will get to the bottom this as well as the Entertainment News and celebrities who have been convicted of tax evasion. Matthew plays background music during Jason's interview with spotlight artist Bryan Thomas. And what's up with Terrance Howard's man brooch?
