DARSH!!!
STAN DARSH!

Joe Walsh came too late to make a real impact?

Chris Hardwick and the Neverending Ass Kiss
So the recurring theme here is how the personalities of Hardwick's guests have to be appealing enough to overcome what a shitty host/interviewer he is. I'm genuinely asking here: is he endlessly ingratiating and unfunny, or is there some mitigating factor that I'm missing?

Variety IS the spice of life
Way to keep that top five diverse and avoid a predictable run of British post-punk classics.

A comedy podcast with no cursing?
What the fuck is the point of that?

Who the fuck is Whitney Cummings?
Seriously, I had never heard of her until today.

Yes, Scott, but is it AUDACIOUS?
It seems that there is much audaciousness on display in this audacious film.

"had"

The Thing has the misfortune of opening like two weeks after E.T. Folks wanted their aliens to eat Reese's Pieces, not faces.

@Seven-deuce: Thankfully, those are not the principal criteria for winning an Oscar. If cultural ubiquity were the primary driving force behind those decisions, no one would bother questioning the films' artistic relevance. Have you fucking WATCHED 'Star Wars' recently?

I CAN TASTE THE COLORS!
ROGER MCGUINN GAVE US SOME RATHER LARGE PEYOTE BUTTONS AND WE ALL WANDERED INTO TOPANGA CANYON LOOKING FOR DENNIS WILSON'S PLACE. WE'RE ALL SEEING SOME REALLY AMAZING THINGS AND FEELING SOME TRUE FEELINGS AND THE SUN IS JUST HUMMING WITH WARMTH. MAY YOUR FUTURE HOLD MILES OF SMILES, BROTHER.

The whole Jean Grey/Madeline Pryor/Rachel Summers/Hope redhead thing is also really fucking confusing. They're all each other's daughters/clones or something?

DO NOT…
…FUCKING TALK SHIT ABOUT JUICE NEWTON.

WILLIAM JOEL
I hate to post a rude, knee-jerk comment with no real constructive content, but I can't sit idly by while someone refers to a Billy Joel album as "edgy and subversive."

Simple solution: If you download these songs illegally, you aren't supporting the pedos financially.

IN OUR TIME with Melvyn Bragg
BBC's "In Our Time" podcast is like a weekly dose of smarts. For 40 minutes, an understated, dryly funny English dude asks a selected trio of British university professors questions about their area of expertise. Show topics range from imaginary numbers to the oracle at Delphi to

POSSIBLIE go wrong.

penis, FTW.

Donald Pleasence, the blond one on 'Simon & Simon,' and some of the dudes from 'Big Trouble in Little China' inadvertently released the son of Satan from his liquid prison at a small church in Los Angeles. We're using this tachyon signal to warn you in your dreams — you've got to stop them before the world is overrun

I repeat, "The bits were just coming out of us left and right."
