The A.V. Club's Portraits of Awesomeness #2: Scharpling & Wurster

Thanks for taking the time to do this! What a great insight into the real life of The Best Show. My favorite part:

A woman from Cincinnati calls.

So ominous! Now if someone can save me the time spent doing some deductive searching on recidivism and tell me what show this was exactly, that would be great!

Yeah, thanks for posting this. I guess I didn't realize JW was usually in studio during the show. Or was this just a special case? I thought he lived in another state.

I always thought he was elsewhere, too, MoS.  That startled me.

Nice article.  Thanks, Gregory.

Look through for Gene Simmons and PBR calling on the same night and you get:

September 9, 2008: Gene Simmons [100,000 Years] (~1:00), PBR [Turn Newbridge Into a Car Wash] (~2:03)

He used to live about 5 miles from me in NC, but someone in the chat said he'd moved to NYC this year.   Which is odd because John Darnielle lives down here.

hold up...

Newbridge is fictional?

Lid-blowers, eh?

Great article!

Thank you very much! It was 100% laziness on my part, admittedly, yet you came through like a champ.

It was in the physical paper but I didn't see it on the website so I went ahead and scanned it.
I think this should work.

Cool thanks. I was beginning to feel like more of an idiot than usual and I wasn't going to sift through all those web pages.
