Sad to hear about Tom's basement. It says a lot about Tom's skill as a broadcaster that even something so heartbreaking can be turned into a story used to, essentially, entertain us all. For example the "Come here Kitty.You want this Wipers CD" line creased me up. [And the cat clearly doesn't know it's Wipers discography because the Is This Real? CD (including the Alien Boy EP) is THE one to have]
Also, the hybrid car gang idea.
And of course, Roy. Gotta love that dude.
