What's the Louis CK rumor? I haven't heard about this and a brief Googling didn't turn anything up.

Why don't we just have Michael Cera play Shaft?
It's next month, I think. I don't want to go look it up, but I'm pretty sure PFT announced it would be recorded June 1st or somewhere around there, so probably released a couple weeks after that.
I don't have a ton to say about this week's except that I will probably be giggling to myself at the name "Pamt" for a very long time.
It's been long enough since TB3 that I wouldn't mind them bringing it back. I would also appreciate J.W. Stillwater's take on it.
I don't know if this was just me, but while they were coming up with a plan to rip off Professor Stealwater's mask, it sort of sounded like Scott and PFT were leading toward a mnemonic device to help them remember the plan. And if that was the bit, I can never forgive her for stepping on it.
I was hoping this would be a Wedge Antilles and Corran Horn-focused Rogue Squadron movie, but I guess you can't win them all.
Morch went by so fast.
I LOVE the Tolkien one. The idea of Tolkien inventing languages for every tool in a toolkit, or whatever the hell is was, was cripplingly funny to me.
I saw him on DLM at the last Bumbershoot, and man, he had some of my all-time favorite quotes on that one.
Can…can a podcast be canceled?
I went to see Ben Folds opening for John Mayer circa…2007, maybe? Mayer was fine, but the best part of the show was Ben Folds closing on his "Bitches Ain't Shit" cover - because it was John Mayer, there were tons of families there, and the reactions of everyone around me were the funniest goddamned thing I've ever…
My sister watched the whole thing before me and she told me there was an awesome surprise guest star. I figured out it was the reverend, but I guessed Alec Baldwin. I think he also would've worked, but I sure as hell can't complain about Jon Hamm.
In his first book, Ken Jennings wrote about how the buzzer is really the key to the show, because the timing of it is so tricky. He said that once you actually make it on the show, most people know most of the answers, or at least enough to win on any given day. But because he had been on so long, he had the timing of…
He works at a major New York law firm, where the starting salary for new attorneys is $160,000, and it only goes up from there. I do think he was joking about it being $36,000, but he could probably afford that.
The other half is what instruments they play.
I also read in an oral history this week that Harris was the one who came up with the idea to make Perd Hapley overly wordy. For that, the world owes him a debt which, even if he were still alive, could never be repaid.
I just want to tell you how goddamned much I'll miss these. It is the perfect sweet spot of my own personal nerdy interests (P&R, Star Trek, and weird comedy), and the fact that there are other people out there who share them makes my heart leap a little bit.
You'll notice Joe Morgan also did not exist in the Parks universe.
Technicality no down boo over!
