by admin on 24/05/10 at 7:00 am
After a not-so-brief hiatus, the E-Verse team is back. If you ever wondered what would happen if a man engaged in a battle of wits with a flip flop . . . and lost, or how why you cant wear your pants as a shirt, we have video footage. Our top five list takes a look at those who sing for bling. We review a couple of songs from Ernies Top 200 Best Songs of the Decade list, have a look at how Ernie's Legendary Misbehavior album is coming along, and check some happy snaps from Paul's recent Aussie road trip, including Roo's versus tourists. So drop by, tune in, and turn on.
Full Story
An E-Verse Radio wedding clip
That’s right, E-Verse’s very own Ernest Hilbert took the plunge with the lovely Lynn this past weekend and both are currently sunning themselves through the Greek Isles. Taken from the wedding party, this clip is from another E-Verse favorite, Keith Kelleher presenting a very Diamondesque performance for the couple. More clips will be on their way when the opportunity arises.
“Circus” – E-Verse Radio 34 – 3rd October, 2007
Uh oh, it looks like the E-Verse Boys are on the run again, and this time they’ve joined the circus. Last week, they broadcast from an old door. This week, it’s an ironing board. No lie. Can you believe it? Production values are plunging in the E-Verse Universe. But stop by and and say hi, and hear Hilbert read Yeats’s “The Circus Animals’ Desertion” and top five circus superstitions, watch Vampire Circus (1972) and clips from the top five circus movies, and Paul takes you away with his Follies, where you can see clown cars and cat circuses. It’s a three-ring circus! So step right up . . . .
“The Law” – E-Verse 33: 13th September, 2007
It’s looks like the E-Verse boys are on the lam again! Remember, you can dodge its long arm. You can lay it down. You can enforce and flee it, but the law is the law. Have a look at this week’s “Law” episode of E-Verse Radio. Jessica, the E-Verse Contessa, stops by to bring us the new installment of her very popular “Shakespeare Says” series, featuring “B” words coined by the immortal bard. Ernest and Paul talk about brushes with the law and share advice from Edmund Burke and others. Ernest reads W.H. Auden’s famous poem “Law Like Love,” and Paul shares fun police chases and video footage of cops breaking the law. They also count down top five law songs, including “The Saw is the Law” and Judas Priest’s fabulously bad “Breaking the Law” from 1980.
Ernest reads his sonnet “Improprieties.” Readers write in with stories of talking with Leonard Cohen, advice on cool places to visit in San Francisco, and so much more. Watch the E-Verse guys fight the law and lose, as always. Incidentally, it’s been a long time since those run-ins with the law described by Ernest. He exists entirely within the realm of enforceable law these days, which, in Philadelphia, is not a terribly difficult thing to accomplish.

“Vodka ii” – E-Verse 32 part 2: September 4th, 2007
In this second Vodka episode, E-Verse Radio counts down the Top 5 Facts about Vodka, Fleming’s Follies compiles Smirnoff v Absolut ads faceoff and a little Boris Yeltsin action. Anton Chekhov enlightens us with the Eight Course Meal for Journalists, the Hilbertian Sonnet “On Boarding a Soviet Attack Submarine” plus reports from the E-Verse Universe. I like my E-Verse shaken, not stirred.
“Vodka I”. E-verse 32, part 1: August 27th, 2007
Anton Chekhov and Will Rogers on the mysteries of vodka, Ken Smith’s “In Praise of Vodka,” We sample the top five Vodka drinks including cosmo and 007, featuring guest bartender Tom Posey, unbelievable but real film titles of the week, including Gunblast Vodka (2000), presented by Lynn Makowsky, plus Keith Richards on his exercise regimen. Part 1 of a 2 part series to be continued next week. Enjoy!
