Spark (radio show)

Spark is a Canadian radio talk show about "technology and culture." Hosted by Nora Young, the program made its CBC Radio One début on September 5, 2007. The show is also broadcast on Sirius Satellite Radio 159 and, since January 9, 2010, on Vermont Public Radio's network of stations in the United States. It is also broadcast in Australia on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Radio National network. Spark is produced in Toronto by Young and a team that currently consists of Michelle Parise, Adam Killick, and Kent Hoffman.
The program is made collaboratively with its audience. Nora Young often encourages listeners to become "Spark Contributors" by participating in the active conversations on the Spark Blog, notifying the Spark Team of interesting ideas to investigate, or even recording interviews and letting Spark use them on the show.Burke, Jasmyn Lighting a Spark Ryerson Review of Journalism. March 17, 2008. The show often plays phone messages left by Spark listeners and features comments left on the Spark Blog. Its episodes made use of Creative Commons music until October 2010, when CBC management realized that Spark was available on some platforms considered to be commercial, violating use restrictions of most of the music available under the Creative Commons licenses. This prompted Spark to limit its use to the APM Music library.
Although less politically themed than most CBC shows, Spark sometimes comments on proposed legislation that affects widely used technology. An example was the Copyright Modernization Act and the bills leading up to it.
==Producers==
In addition to Nora Young, current producers include Michelle Parise, Adam Killick, and Kent Hoffman. Past producers include Dan Misener, Elizabeth Bowie and Carma Jolly.
==Multiple podcasts==
The on-air version is available as a weekly podcast, augmented with two additional audio feeds: Spark Plus (which features "bonus audio" such as full interviews), and "Bandwidth with Anshuman Iddamsetty", a weekly technology column by one of Spark's producers.
Spark Lite, a low-bandwidth podcast of the on-air version powered by blip.tv, was available from November 2008 to October 2011; it ended due to changes in blip.tv policy.

Spontaneanation

Spontaneanation with Paul F. Tompkins (stylized as SPONTANEANATION with Paul F. Tompkins) is an improv comedy podcast hosted by Paul F. Tompkins on the Earwolf network. Based upon an interview with a special guest, Tompkins and several "improvisational friends" (often co-stars from The Thrilling Adventure Hour, Superego, No, You Shut Up!, or Bajillion Dollar Propertie$) perform narrative improv set in a location provided by the guest.
==Episode format==
Each episode of Spontaneanation contains two segments: an interview with a special guest, followed by an improvisational scene that contains elements from the preceding interview, taking place in a setting given by that week's guest. Each interview begins with a question supplied by the previous episode's guest, without revealing their identity. Additionally, Tompkins begins each show with a brief improvised stream of consciousness monologue. The improvisational scene and monologue are scored by Eban Schletter on piano.
The podcast is notably different from Tompkins' previous podcast, The Pod F. Tompkast, in that it is entirely improvised, where the Tompkast featured pre-recorded bits and heavy editing.
Because I’m used to everything I do being very involved with a lot of pre-production and post-production and I really wanted to be able to walk in, record and it's just done. And that's how I arrived at what is Spontaneanation.
— Paul F. Tompkins
Tompkins ends each episode with the phrase semper en presente, a Latin phrase translating to "always in the present" or "always in the moment."
In addition to in-studio tapings, Spontaneanation is often recorded in front of a live audience at Café Largo in Los Angeles.

Paste magazine placed Spontaneanation in the fifth spot on their list of The 10 Best Comedy Podcasts of 2015, referring to it as "both an illuminating chat show and a strong argument in favor of the often-maligned artform of improv comedy." "A Theme Park Break Room" was included on Vulture's list of the Best Comedy Podcast Episodes of 2015, referring to it as "what was easily one of the most wildly funny podcasts of 2015."

Stand Alone

"Stand Alone" is the seventeenth short from the second season of Rooster Teeth Shorts. It was uploaded on October 9, 2010.
==Summary==
The short begins with Brandon receiving a phone call from Gus, who says that he cannot show up to work due to an emergency. He asks Brandon to guide around his "replacement", which is simply a cardboard cut-out of himself. Geoff overhears Brandon telling Gus his plan will not work. He mistakes the Gus cut-out for the actual Gus and asks why Brandon is yelling at Gus. Joel and Burnie also fall for it and suspect that Brandon and Gus are keeping secrets.
When Joel, Burnie and Geoff try to ask the Gus cut-out questions and get no reply, they begin to wonder what is different about Gus and suggest that he may be working out. The short then cuts to a montage of the three spending quality time with the Gus cut-out. Eventually, they all fight over who gets to spend time with the cut-out. At the end of the episode, it is revealed that the real Gus is at home making cardboard cut-outs of Geoff, Burnie and Joel. He then starts to play a game of strip poker with the cut-outs.
