That morning, Chippy’s hard drive spun and spun, bringing his servo motors to life again.  His tracks, rolling lazily down the hall, transported him to the coffee pot.  He blinked and blinked while trying to get visual focus on what his computer bank called “ITEM 001″, commonly referred to as coffee.  It was time to …

It was on this date in 1920 that radio station KDKA, Pittsburgh began broadcasting.  It was the first radio station to be commercially licensed by what would eventually become the FCC.  Westinghouse provided the broadcasting equipment, made of wood and glass (I imagine).  They began their broadcast by saying “This is KDKA, of the Westinghouse …

This Thursday was remarkably different than any other Thursday mornings, in that it was the 27th of October, and the year is 2011.  Besides the calendar feature, there aren’t too many differences from last Thursday, except: Adam was wearing a sweater vest on Thursday instead of Wednesday, which kept making him think that today was …

Ben doesn’t know it, but Adam is about to order some transition lenses.  He’s been wanting contacts for a long time, and it seems like this is the smartest way to go. Follow this developing saga as the week rolls on.

What did Adam and Ben learn this week? Nintendo is awesome.  It was on this week in the year 1985 that the NES made its North American debut.  Since then, Luigi has been largely ignored and swept under the rug of his big brother. The BBC has like 9 channels, but after seven, it’s BBC …

Adam and Ben were in rare form, just like they are every day, as they celebrated the launch of the Nintendo (R) Entertainment ™ System (c).  What an 8-bit celebration it was!  Listeners and facebook pals were kind enough to let them know their favorite games, which included Tetris, Duck Hunt, and, of course, Super …

Adam and Ben ignited a hot debate this morning regarding multivitamins, brought out by a Home.FM InstaPoll.  The question was simple: Do you take multivitamins? The answers were great.  We got some short ones (yes) and some longer ones (term papers).  Either way, taking multivitamins wins.  Congrats, everybody!  

Adam and Ben had to be super efficient this morning as they worked on the next DocuSode — and the next next DocuSode.  It was, you might say, a DocuSode-a-rama.  Or, to kick it up a few more notches Emeril Style (BAM!!!) it was a DocuSode-a-rama-Extravaganza! Look for new docusodes at the home.fm page.   Then, …

Adam and Ben welcomed Fall with open arms today, noting that Autumn begin at 5:04AM. They then descended into pointless chatter about the benefits of referring to the season as “Autumn” instead of “Fall”.  You know, there are many things in the world that have two names.  Semi Trucks are also 18-wheelers.  Short Sleeved Shirts …

Adam and Ben were really on to something this morning!  Hi.  I’m Chippy, robot producer for Mornings at Home here on home.fm.  Ben mentioned  a problem with an electrical upgrade at his house that involved wires that were just too short, which, as we know, leads to an electrical short!  Hi.  I’m Chippy, robot producer …
