The Slacker Factor

The Slacker Factor podcast and web space blossomed out of the collective frustrations of three East-coast-bred, corporately-employed friends who wanted to create a forum for discussion, expression, and learning. Wait, that sounds way too serious. The reality is we all hate the responsibilities of being adults, and wanted to get together to share random thoughts, listen to loud and curious music, and to have a few laughs. We want you to do the same, and to be a part of the slackerdom. Thanks for listening to the podcasts, and checking out the web site at www.theslackerfactor.com.

Each podcast features the word and ideas of Generation X, as expressed by Christian Godbout, Robert LaFrance, and Patty Pino. Christian and Rob are veteran radio slackers and Rob continues to bring music to the masses as a professional DJ. Patty is a spoken-word performer, who, way back in the 80s, made a living as a professional stand-up comedian. All of us met in the 90s, when we bonded over beat-mixing, the Beastie Boys, and Nirvana. Our voices express the angst of too-much-responsibility coupled with the never-ending search for all things less-than-mediocre.
