Great job, Martin!  If you have the time, desire, and energy to do more clip shows I would certainly be into it.  I'm sure at least two or three other people would be, too.

Feb 6th episode of Gems: 

My favorite Marky Ramone call. Where else are you going to get Clem Burke jokes?

The best thing about that call is real it feels. If I didn't know it was Jon, I could seriously buy that it was really Marky Ramone. The first half where he's talking about/reading his erotic novel is priceless and something only the Best Show could do.

Martin, I don't know if you take requests for gems, but i would love to have the bit where Tom and Jon are talking about Obama's rock band that plays Fugazi.

Thanks guys!

Suggestions are always welcome (the more specific the better, ie dates and stuff). They may not happen toute-suite, but I assure you I take all suggestions under consideration. Some might be too long or too old or too new, but I welcome all.

Nowah in Bloomington!

I rewound it four or five times and CANNOT stop hearing an f-bomb at 15:34 of the BJ Bryson call.

I thought that too but I'm certain it was actually "suckers"

I had to rewind it to make sure, but I'm pretty sure it was "suckers."

Thank you Martin for making this Rick Remington call a Best Show Gem. "Is the Basketball-Cake Guy dead yet?" kills me every time.

"An Introduction to Vance and Gary the Squirrel" clip show would be really fun.

Too soon for that surely?

Martin - still taking requests? Are there any more Matthew Tompkins calls to dig out. it's been too long since i heard about the Van Morrison Variety Two Hour

It is kind of hard now unfortunately but I think my favorite call of all time is from 11/29/05 [Best Show Gem: January 11, 2010]  when a 13-year-old  named Mac, who is talking about Aerosmith and a music encyclopedia book, gets a call from Jimmy Crespo of Aerosmith. Mac thinks Crespo is a fake caller but Crespo's knowledge of Aerosmith kind of turns him around.  If you have not listened, go the archives--Mac's call starts around 1:40.

Highlights:

Mac:   How many units did Aerosmith sell?
Jimmy:  Units? Who are you, Clive Davis

-----

Jimmy: How many pull-ups can you do?

------------

Jimmy: Mac is a stupid name.

------------
Mac:   ...too much cocaine.
Jimmy:  For you maybe.
Mac:     What?
