Open Mouth, Insert Foot
Not for nothing, but it seems like every time Andrew Baron opens his mouth, Amanda Congdon takes his foot, angles it ever so gently, and shoves it right into his mouth.
Rather than give the explanation, just read the latest from Amanda’s blog:
I’m bored of this. Really. It’s getting older than old. But this new fact is pretty f-ing telling.
So I’m here at BlogHer, having a terrific time, meeting some amazing women… hanging with cool cats like Millie Garfield.
And then I receive this message on my blackberry from a longtime viewer: “Drew shot a videoblog with [refers to Ms. Colan] on July 4th, the day before you put up your vid announcing how he pushed you out of RB”. Of course, he just uploaded this “lost episode” recently, since he hasn’t been able to keep RB on schedule (rocketboom.com is now directed to rocketboom.org).
Not to harp on this but it raises a critical question… The Baron has claimed publicly that he “never imagined Rocketboom with out me” until he saw my video on July 5th. If that’s true, why would he have shot this with Joanne on July 4th?
A damned good question, Amanda. I’d personally love to hear the quibbling explanation for it.
So far Andrew Baron has been caught in some pretty high profile lies from the beginning of this affair, so it’s not a real surprise that he just got caught again. It’s just awesome that Amanda is doing it so easily!
I will say I like Rocketboom, still. Joanne Colan is a very good host. One difference between Amanda and her, though, is that Amanda was quirky geeky cool and Joanne is more “polished media type.” Two completely different directions for Rocketboom. I do, however, miss Amanda. Her perky quirkiness was the reason I watched when she was on it, and I can’t wait to see her do something else soon. I’m in Amanda withdrawal dammit!
