Episode 99 – We have one hyphenated word for you… Hip-Hopera!

Kelly’s daughter Karen joins us again for a show with services, games, and songs… but mostly Hip-Hopera!

Mel’s Recommendation:

Website: Fiverr.com

  • a Global Online Marketplace where you can hire a freelancer to help you with most any digital product you need.
  • Each “Gig” starts out at $5, hence the name.
  • Mel finds it particularly useful for Graphic Design stuff, but the list is pretty limitless of what you can find.

 

Karen’s Recommendation:

CostumeQuest

Game: Costume Quest 1 & 2

  • a #SuperCute game where your character uses abilities gained from their Halloween Costume to defeat some evil candy-stealing monsters.
  • It’s by the cool folks over at Double Fine who also made Stacking.
  • Costume Quest is available on PC, Playstation and Xbox, and Wii so you really don’t have an excuse not to check it out.

 

 

Musical: Hamilton

hamilton

  • A Hip-Hopera tale about Alexander Hamilton.  If he sounds familiar, it’s because he was a Founding Father.
  • Lin-Manuel Miranda created it based on the biography, ‘Alexander Hamilton’ by Ron Chernow.
  • There are Rap Battles between Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson…
  • The Soundtrack is available pretty much everywhere, including Amazon Prime 😉

 

Kelly’s Recommendation:

newmansailaway

Music: Sail Away by Randy Newman

  • a 1972 album by Randy Newman featuring a mix of varying political messages, burning rivers, and even a dancing bear.
  • Many of these songs were actually covered by other artists.
  • You can find most of these on YouTube and Spotify.
  • Kelly is a huge fan of Randy and recommends this as your “starter album” if you are just trying him out.
