And is AMAZING.

I drew some looks walking around at lunch on Friday by laughing out loud at some parts.

Best: Having Rebecca Sugar on the show and her being so incredibly reserved.

Hulu Plus now has season 1 of Steven Universe! Hooray for me. I need to catch up (start from the beginning). Since I haven't had cable for a couple of years I usually have to go to my in-laws and watch newer SU episodes on demand. (Yes dear, I know "it's a cartoon"(!). So is Toy Story.)

If and when Numero does a "Best of the Best Show Vol. 2" box, last night's JW call will most certainly have to be on it. I haven't laughed that hard in a while.

Best moment: calling the Best Show for the first time.

Worst moment: listening back to my call.

Radio 2 - Adult Contemporary
Radio 3 - Classical (also Jazz, experimental music)
Radio 4 - News, Current Affairs, Documentary, Drama, Comedy. Similar to public radio - This American Life would fit here.

"Persona au gratin".  Are these sayings considered malaprops?

The image of 'Funny Slayer'- a band stopping during their rendition of the Dark Lords of Thrash's "Raining Blood" to do crowd work- is too funny and will stay with me for a long time.

"My great great great grampa's Model S has two old-timey horns (Model S was before Model T)"
Vandalism! Sick vandalism! When I get my hands on the little punks I'm gonna hang them by their Buster Browns!

Am I remembering correctly, but Adler refer to his brother as the "Dale Carnegie" of the tribute band business, and mentioned a robber baron on his business cards?

OMG, they mentioned the Urinals! I used to work with one of the guys from the band!

The name Suiskadal Tendenskas has been haunting me for weeks. It's driving me crazy, but I still have to laugh/smile every time I think of it...

Finally got around to listening to the rest of the episode today and Wurster's call destroyed me. Highlights from this week include the sealed gift of the soundtrack from Deep Throat Part II, Angus' home run call, "Tom, you handle this like an adult...and then I walked out and flipped their Do Not Disturb sign to Service, Please and then...I did it again the next morning.", "Did Hooligan make the list?" "OH GOD, you bet!", any and all basketball talk, and the mention of Brother Ron's Real The Best Show.
Wailin' the eff outta that vibraslap!
