Episode 7: Mamma I möchte bumsen und Plätzchen

In which our illustrious host talks about the perils of pre-recorded shows, tells people not to trust him, plays a cover of an obscure song from 10 years ago, calls the kettle black, bashes Scientology without apology, gets embarrased by one of the Colorado news stories, and rambles on for a bit before mercifully ending the show.

Episode 6: Click now or forever hold your piece.

In which our illustrious host waxes philosophical about the pervasiveness of Internet songs, steals a joke from Dubshack, ponders why some people who should be fired are allowed to quit first, and FINALLY gets to his essay; not neccesarily in that order. Oh, and he also has a VERY special guest. :-) Oh, and my sound quality dips dramatically about 20 minutes in for no apaprent reason. The mic is fine, Audacity was running at normal, I don't know what caused it. Let's hope it's not permanent.

E-Mails: arklemknzy@yahoo.com, brian.d.webber@gmail.com (Please only use the GMail account for content submissions please)

This Week's Question for the Listeners: What are some examples in your own life of people who quit who really should've been fired first?
