My favorite moments are when Tom says something funny that comes completely unexpected, out of left field, like "Just like the way C-3PO is in the Star Wars movies. You need a little bit of that that stuff to break it up. What, do you want the Star Wars movies to be so grim?"

  If it wouldn't be a problem to see me, then that's another story.

Just wear a purple felt jumpsuit.

Z-Man sifting through trash in a full-body Wally Wackiman suit would be incredible.

This is clearly the answer. It would be magnificent.

That Steve Albini call was amazing. Great deft interview by Tom.

Maybe I have aspergers but I totally loved Albini's take on sports. Solid logic. Except for one thing. Baseball is not the only sport of its kind. He has clerly never watched any cricket. He should.

Please Tom. Don't stop. We can find a way to monetise the show for you.

Tom: do what you gotta do. Whether it's The Best Show or something that pays, I'll be looking forward to it.

I don't know, Cricket is fun to watch but the whole running back-and-forth thing might not appeal to the hyper-logical. In baseball you end up where you started but at least you don't re-trace your steps.

One thing I like about baseball is that the offense is never in possession of the ball. Granted, this is likely what causes many people to hate it.

Ha ha ha!  This idea genuinely made me laugh out loud, and it's one I actually wouldn't mind, though I think I'd prefer to do it, AS ME, and not in character, just being a form of humiliation/self-deprecation humor I could get behind.

I think Tom should stop once he has exhausted the Led Zeppelin catalog. How far along is he?

I don't recall hearing Stairway To Heaven.

He's played it ... but there is no reason to stop playing Zeppelin and there is no reason to stop the Best Show!!

(Unless Tom wants to stop it, of course. It's his show).

Tom baiting Spike on hating women makes me laugh every time.
