What are some of your favorite phrases heard on the Best Show?
« on: November 06, 2014, 12:04:47 PM »
One that has stuck with me is "delectable belly timber" (I think that was it). It was a phrase PBR used when he was reciting an erotic story by Alexander Graham Bell submitted to an early 20th century edition of Penthouse Forum. [This was in the June 11, 2013 Best Show.]

What are yours?

Still can't get over "flagrantly unhinged villain" from Officer Harrups in the last episode.

I don't think this counts as a phrase, but there was one show a long time ago where Tom asked for ideas for movies as vehicles for music personalities. I think it was inspired by some Kelly Clarkson movie that came out right after the 1st season of american idol that got him thinking about the good old days when prominent musical talents like The Beatles would star in movies.
Someone from the chat suggested Lily Allen Vs. Predator and Tom complained that he wasn't looking for puns. But I thought that was really funny and it stuck in my head for years. I actually ended up naming my dog Lily Allen Vs. Predator a few years later when me and my wife couldn't agree on a name and the best compromise was naming her LAVP and calling her Lily...mostly.

From the John Green call:

TOM: "Then you escaped from prison."

JOHN GREEN: "Thank you."

My wife, two kids, and I all use the phrase "back in classical music times" pretty regularly.
