I couldn't believe he pulled that one out. Worst line of the night "he'd a been forty-eight cents!"

Ron White … eh. But next week the judges perform AND Craig and his band. I'm excited.

Ouch. You're talking about Tom "the Hammer" DeLay there Noel. May history never forget … the douchiness of that man.

I'm going to go ahead and assume this is a failed secondsies attempt, as they already adapted Second Variety into a bad movie with Peter Weller.

My wife: "I never had a teacher who dressed like THAT!"

Oh, I though it was mildly amusing at the very beginning. Got old fast tho'.

It may be old & stale but it was still his best joke.

I'd encourage you to check out the podcast. I'm not a huge fan of his comedy - don't hate it but don't love it either - but I try to hear all the podcasts. He has this free-form manner of letting the interview go wherever the guest seems to take it. Sometimes the conversations are just fascinating and they wander…

That was Mike and they cut that joke from what they showed of his set. I don't know why, it was his best joke.

He got 100,000 L's? Sweet! Now he can write Animalllllllllllllllllll Farm, the musicallllllllllll.

I LIKE Basquiat, but in the world of "outsider-inspired, dead-before-their-time 80's art" I've always been a Keith Haring guy.

Actually, I think the fact that they had Anna Chapman trying to glean information about American foreign policy from east coast socialites makes this even more ridiculous.

You didn't already own Go Down Moses?

I remember Chevelle. I thought their singer looked like Mark Ruffalo.

Agreed. It's my favorite of the three, biut maybe because I have a weakness for the "good" VanCleef character, as well as the scene where he and Eastwood shoot off each other's hats.

Everyone thinks he'a an asshole. But he's not an asshole. He's just British.

I think restraint in the sense that he avoids histrionics. He's certainly not above battering viewers with his opinions, but I think The West Wing is one of those rare shows that strikes a delicate balance between message and delivery. I at least never felt he was sermonizing.

My favorite is Phillip Roth. Am I doing this right?

Sex does not exist in Mississippi. Although I'll bet Louie will now go out of his way to book a tour there.

Gross.
I like Fresh Air much better when Dave Davies is guest interviewing.
