Tonight on Click, Bang!

[DC2]

Show suggestion...

How do we get the vaping world informed, motivated, active, and prepared to fight the increasing number of battles on all fronts?
Big Pharma has been after us, the alphabet groups have been after us, the FDA has been after us, and now Big tobacco is joining the fray.

We need to find the best strategy for getting massive involvement from the vaping community.
And I have never seen a show on such a topic that I can remember.

Suggested guests to discuss such strategies...
--Bill Godshall
--CASAA board members
--Prominent vendors

If you are paying attention, they are escalating their efforts to stop us, and using every strategy in the book.
It seems to me our best way to fight back is with increasing numbers of informed vapers, and we need to grow those numbers effectively, and quickly.

I agree. I covered the examples that you gave, the FDA and Big Tobacco, on the last episode of Click, Bang!

We need to find the best strategy for getting massive involvement from the vaping community.
And I have never seen a show on such a topic that I can remember.

I haven't either. Mass involvement from the community is definitely a goal worth pursuing. I realize that it's a small drop in the bucket, but I have been selling Click, Bang! tshirts and giving 10% of the proceeds to CASAA. This has resulted in "free money" for CASAA. You can buy the tshirts here:

Mens: Click, Bang! tshirt - Mens from Zazzle.com

Womens: Click, Bang! tshirt - Womens from Zazzle.com

This is a good small start, but I agree that a larger scale mass effort is needed. I'm certainly open to ideas on how to accomplish that.

Suggested guests to discuss such strategies...
--Bill Godshall
--CASAA board members
--Prominent vendors

I have indeed been doing that, along with the rest of the shows on the VP Live Network. On the last show that I posted above, I talked at length with Greg Conley from CASAA about fighting back against FDA and Big Tobacco. Bringing prominent vendors into the discussion is a great idea, one that I will pursue.

If you are paying attention, they are escalating their efforts to stop us, and using every strategy in the book.
It seems to me our best way to fight back is with increasing numbers of informed vapers, and we need to grow those numbers effectively, and quickly.

Your feedback is much appreciated. Please continue to give suggestions, I think the ideas you stated are excellent.

The link to that show wasn't working for me the other day, but it is working for me now.
I'm looking forward to giving it a listen.

Tonight on Click, Bang!

Allegations have been made by a group of vapers that a person in our community who runs co-ops, Carolyn Carter (aka Vape Deals on facebook), supported a child ...... and is spreading homophobic rhetoric.

These allegations have resulted in a wave of outrage from vapers on both sides of the debate that has continued for days.

Tonight's program will explore this issue in depth. All voices on either side of the debate can call in and express their opinions. If you would like to state your opinion on this matter, the call-in number is 347-308-8329.

This rates to be very explosive content, NSFW, and certainly not to be listened to around children or adults who are easily offended.

I made three playlists for you to listen to on your VapeBash travels.

VapeBash 2 - Rock

direct mp3 download: https://soundcloud.com/vp-live/vapebash-2-rock/download/

A mix of Classic and Alternative Rock ft. ZZ Topp, Queens of the Stone Age, Black Sabbath, Nirvana, The Breeders, and At The Drive-in

VapeBash 2 - Agony

streaming: VapeBash 2 - Agony by VP Live on SoundCloud - Hear the world

iTunes: http://itun.es/i6JW8VX

direct mp3 download: https://soundcloud.com/vp-live/vapebash-2-agony/download/

I'm really excited about this playlist. I didn't pick any of these songs - my man Troy did. Here is his facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/troy.auchue

Troy often requests songs during after-hours on Click, Bang! They are usually bands I have never heard of. Very very heavy stuff.

I asked Troy to make a super heavy playlist. He did not disappoint.

I'd list some of the artists, but there are few anyone would even recognize.

Most of these songs make Slayer feel like Hall & Oates. This is an absolutely brutal sonic assault of demonic proportions.

Troy hit it out of the park. Turn it up. I'm not responsible for any hearing loss that you may suffer.

VapeBash 2 - Candy!

streaming: VapeBash 2 - Candy! by VP Live on SoundCloud - Hear the world

iTunes: http://itun.es/i6JW8PR

direct mp3 download: https://soundcloud.com/vp-live/vapebash-2-candy/download/

This is a super-girly mix of pop, electronica and '80s cheese ft. Icona Pop, Katy Perry, The Bangles, Liz Phair, and George Michael.

It's really fun to listen to, kinda like that old saying about riding a moped.

I'll see you in Chicago!

That guy should have never apologized.
He should have kept ripping into them all day long.

We won't win this by playing their game.
We need to beat the living crap out of them every chance we get.

Decorum my ....

 

[DC2]

Okay, after listening to the rest of the broadcast...

I am a firm believer in attacking your enemies from all sides.
And that includes having at least one person willing and able to rip into them.

I think that guy going first may well have softened them up.
And I wish he wasn't so apologetic about doing so.
