Today I talk about anti-depressants. Do they hurt or help people? Do doctors give them to too many people?
What are your thoughts?
I rage about how Wal-Mart uses the U.S. flag a propaganda. Why do only right wing groups use the flag? It is time for the left wing to take it back.
I love the show Man vs. Wild
Does anyone remember the show The White Shadow?

I start today’s show talking about a two year old girl who is a genius — no joke.
How are you? Really, how are you?
I was overlooked and not thanked at an event. My rule: You either thank everybody or thank no one.
I have a huge fight with my father. I discuss my dysfunctional family. Is any family functional?
I discuss what is or is not offensive. Are there somethings we should not do as podcasters because it is too offensive?
Or should we not worry about what is offensive, because if we do, we box ourselves into a corner we can never get out of?
What do you think?

Zilla calls in to the SATURNcast
We learn how to pronounce my name the right way.
Bean and I wish Sin the best with her son.
I cry for real.
I discuss the horrific accident Bean and I had with a motorcycle a few years back. I hate motorcycles.
I discuss everyone’s comments about what happiness means to them.
I mention that I had an unethical therapist.
Is my medication working? (thanks Zilla for planting that seed in my head)
The world famous Bean comes on the show to discuss why she is upset that people are using her real name. We debate the issue.

My response and feelings to the Tranny Wreck controversy.
Your recent comments trigger an angry flashback.
Where is my fame and glory?
I am Dutch.
Today I interview my good friend Eric Luper. Eric is a talented author who is the author of the teen novel, Big Slick, which will be published in September.
Eric and I talk about his new book, the creative writing process, the book business and one of my favorite years, 1934.
Eric is a great person and we should all support his works. He has worked very hard to get published.
It is required reading on Saturn.
The show starts with a wonderful message from the lovely Cheryl Merkowski.
Guess the mystery speaker slamming Franklin Roosevelt and win a SATURNcast T-shirt!
I hate Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day etc. They are all made up holidays to give the card companies money. You should express your love because you love someone, not because society tells you too!!!
Remember when I talked about being addicted to a person? Well, NASA astronaut Lisa Nowak proves my theory. She threw away her entire life due to her addiction to a person.
She was also an overachiever — which can lead to real problems.
I give you all a little history lesson on the Kennedy family. JFK had many faults, but I still like him.
Listen to the Mysterious Universe podcast.
I enjoyed my Skype call with Andy Melton, Dace, and Zillafag.
Zilla takes my side against the evil Bean. (finally, someone. . .)

Everything seems to be going wrong this month. My latest cross to bear is the fact that my podcast hosting provider at GO DADDY has been down for over a week.
I simply can not upload my podcasts. It will not let me.
I have called them several times. Each time they tell me they know there is a problem with their podcast hosting, that they do not know what is wrong and have no idea when it will be fixed.
At first I was really nice about it. Because, you know, mistakes and problems happen. But as each day went by and I was unable to upload my podcasts, I became increasingly angry toward Go Daddy’s cavalier attitude about it.
I explained to them that it was very important that I get my podcasts out in a timely fashion. They could have cared less.
So by Friday night I had enough of it and I called up very stern and cross. I was demanding satisfaction. So they spent THREE HOURS with me on the phone figuring out a way for me to give them my podcast file (Rings of Saturn #24) in order for them to manually put the file on my site.
I go to bed Friday night assuming my podcast would be up on my site soon.
Nope.
I call Saturday, livid. They tell me it would take up to 72 hours to put the podcast on my site and no idea how long it would take to fix the original upload problem.
I demanded to speak to a supervisor. I slowly work my way up the chain of command until such time as I am speaking to someone at Go Daddy with a position of authority.
I am pissed — and it shows.
He asks why I am uploading such a “large” file to begin with — 24MBs.
I say it is a podcast file.
He asks me: WHAT’S A PODCAST?
It was at this point that I knew I was doomed. Sunk.
I have one more weapon in my arsenal. And it is equal to dropping a nuclear bomb.
I did not want it to come to this.
I really did not.
I unleash The Bean on them.
Next thing I know, I am refunded all of my money I have spent with Go Daddy related to podcasting — so I am now hosting (if it ever works again) for free. (And I tip my hat to Go Daddy for that. But I do spend A LOT of money with them on various things)
My show is put on my site (But that show was done a week ago, so I am now a week behind)
And a promise that the problem will be fixed by Monday (we will see about that)
So for now, if you are hearing Rings of Saturn #24 or #25 you are in select company. I am using my spare libsyn account to host them and slapping them up to my site. My main RSS feed is the Go Daddy one — so people who rely on that RSS feed to find out when the latest installment of SATURNcast is up will never know there is a new podcast unless they make their way over to the SATURNdiary.
This bothers me. Being a genius also makes me anal-retentive.
I wonder if Adam Curry knows Go Daddy is unaware what a podcast is. . .
I am very passive-aggressive today.
You and I have not just sat down and talked in like, forever.
Kidney stone problem is still a problem.
Thanks to all of you who have reached out to see if I was ok.
The SATURNdiary was hacked on Sunday.
I hired Andy Melton to fix it and he did a fantastic job! I urge all of you to hire Andy when you need computer help.
PizzaBabe calls Bean a whore and a prude. . . Not a winning strategy.
Listen to the TiggerCast
Listen to AJ’s Cuppa Tea
Listen to Rebbecca Nay’s Tranny Wreck (She was mean and cranky on her last podcast)
Listen to the Gay Expat
Listen to the Freak Network
Why is it that I give all of you iTunes reviews but none of you have seen fit to give me one? (even a bad one! SHAME ON YOU)
Wal-Mart and Dunkin’ Donuts PC BS.
Red China is going to own space in 10 years. We are dumb-asses.
Madge Weinstein calls me a hater. So untrue.
Apple iPhone is useless.
Steve Jobs need a suit.
From the Podsafe Music Network: Uncle Seth — You Don’t Need an iPod.
Metalica sucks.
I think addicts need 12 step programs.
The world-famous Bean joins Rings of Saturn #21 as a guest host.
Am I wrong to question other podcasters use of audio-blackface?
Is therefore the use of Brian Boothby hypocritical?
We discuss the Saddam Hussein execution. The person in charge of public relations for this hanging should be fired.
ANDY MELTON LAUNCHES INTO SPACE! It will take him ten years to get to Saturn.
Andy will update us about his space journey on the SATURNcast from time to time.
Bean and I end the show discussing the death of Gerald Ford, and how poor it was of everybody not to show up for his state ceremonies.
New Year’s Day is just like every other day — exactly the same.
