That's about all I have to say. Can't wait to see what happens.

P.S. Did H-Man throw his chicken cutlet sandwich into the ring for the election, or is he too young?
-
can't wait either steve. am bummed i'll be out of town and can't listen live, but i'm pulling for PBR and can't wait to eat his little hoagie (that sounds horrific.)
-
I was planning on being at home with my folks tonight, so I thought I'd miss it. But what with T.S. Fay covering the whole of Florida, I'm housebound, and probably won't do the 3 hr drive. So I may be listening live. Excitement!
-
The second the guy called up and mentioned the word 'debate' I was excited.
-
Who ever heard of sound effects at a political debate?
Anyway, I am very much looking forward to getting a detailed look at each candidates platform. Lets all keep our fingers crossed that nothing goes awry.
PBR: "I been kickin' chacolatier's asses since I was a kid!"
-
Halversom in 08! I don't see what the problem is.
-
Watch your language, Steve.
-
i am so pumped for this show. i wonder how they're gonna do it?
do you think it'll be over the phone or that they'll somehow do it live or something?
-
I also want to throw my hat in the ring! The ring of people who are very excited for tonight's program! I am so excited I am typing about it on a messageboard!

-
I too am endorsing this show.
-
I am withdrawing my p p p p p p p p p p p p previous endorsement of the show. I
have want to spend tonight with my family.
-
or your novel, dave.
seriously.
-
Yeah, I can't listen live, but I'm really excited to see how they're planning to pull this off. It's going to be a radio-theater tour de force!
-
I'm remembering the MC Steinberg/Ted Leo rap battle, where a panel of Newbridge characters acted as judges. That was done over the phone, but that was probably due to the distance factor (which is apparently no longer a factor).
-
I hope someone demands that Mike finally answer why he refuses to wear his flag hat.

I think any candidate who's taking this thing seriously needs to wear a lapel pin in the shape of a muffler.
I'm pulling for dark-horse candidate Sleepy Jeff. Is he still in the race? I can't remember how his phone call ended -- did he work up enough energy to threaten Tom with some type of maiming, or was he too sleepy?

He is, but his call ended with an apparent bus accident (no threats were made on Tom's life).

I agree, it should be a fun show. I can't believe how everyone is so PUMPED for this show though -- this thread reads like some kind of viral marketing scheme.
Who's still in the race, again? Is PFT still in it?
-
I'm hoping Bob will add some of his unique takes on the whole mayubernatorial process.

I'd also like to see him offer some ideas for Newbridge beyond that proposal to widen the mote around the old, abandoned Newbridge blimp hangar.
-
This thread seems staged. I mean, who wouldn't want to eat PBR's little hoagy? Maybe a vegetarian, but I don't buy it.

I was pretty looking forward to this show, but after Tom's Emergency Karaoke Request up there I am REALLY looking forward to it.
-
I'll miss it. I'm going to bed now. Keep it UNREAL people.
-
Thanks Erika. OK, now I am psyched.

Sorry to hear about T.S. Fay, Sam-bo (p.s. This is your one chance to request that I never call you "Sam-bo" again). My friend, Zazu is in the same situation in Orlando ... She works for the Mouse.
STAY INSIDE!!!

it took me about three times to read that and comprehend. you owe me a drink.

Steve, you my boy.
But never call me Sambo again.
-
Yes, that was pretty horrifying, Steve.

Sam Bam Cunningham it shall be then!!!
Also ...
Von Tito, as we are geographically separated, please send me the receipt for the next drink you enjoy while out on the town.
Also ...
Sarah, I appreciate you sticking up for Samir. You're a good FOT, Sar'-bear.
-
Sar'-bear.
Better or worse than Sambo? While it doesn't have the implied racism, the application of "Sar-bear" to anyone over the age of 4 is, to be kind, questionable.
-
You're turfin' out again, Steve!
-
Oh, "Sar-bear" is awful, of course (although when a young friend called me that a few weeks ago I was merely startled and slightly charmed, it was so out of the blue and silly), but it says more about Big Steve than me.

Masterofsparks dodges the bullet. If only I could come up with a nickname for that which is already a nickname!!!
But wait, I don't know how that one-use nickname for Samir qualifies at "implied racism." And I'm not sure I want to know.

Do a google image search for "Sambo" and you'll see.

Holy Hand-grenades!!! In my defense, I did hyphenate it. Makes all the difference.
