I couldn't get past the poor audio quality. I couldn't make out more than half of what the brothers were saying.

I love that Jack Soo episode of Barney Miller. It's such a neat idea to spend an entire episode with the actors reminiscing about their friend and colleague.

Scott explained at one point that he finds the idea of an "all new" Marc Maron funny, because it implies we're sick of the Marc Maron we already have. Or something. At this point, he's just doing it because that's how he did it before, I think.

No, you are correct that it was a Callahan's Crosstime Saloon reference.

Is Callahan's Bar a restaurant? Because if it is, I'm going. I can get a pizza delivered or something.

Well, they're Muppets, so it might not count, but there's Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem. Janice is the lead guitarist, but she rarely sings. (Floyd's the bassist, and they've been really good about remembering that over the years)

I think we've reached a place as a nation where we can accept that there's nothing wrong with an album being slickly produced if it's full of catchy songs that are fun to sing along to.

I am neither a woman nor a gay man, but I am someone who's obsessed with Pamela Adlon being in Grease 2. I just think it's neat!

Ugh, the Anointed One.

Wow, a Buck-O-Nine shout-out!

I liked Celebrity Skin a lot more than Live Through This.

I was hoping the "living train" and "golem horse" angles would cross over and it would turn out that the train was actually a golem.

Earlier in the Discworld series, books like Moving Pictures and Soul Music would have things from the real world enter the Discworld through some kind of handwaving, then be banished at the end of the book. I think I liked that better than the recent books, where somebody just straight-up invents the steam engine or a

I kind of liked Joe Besser as Stinky on the Abbott and Costello Show. I can't defend that opinion, though.

If you like the baron of Arizona, you will love the movie The Baron of Arizona, starring a young Vincent Price as the biggest liar in the world. So much fun.

Played by Jenna Maroney.

What's weird is that the best song from "Rio" was actually "Pretty Bird," which was written and performed by Jemaine Clement. We could have had a Conchord-on-Conchord battle that year!

I saw the tour in Seattle, and Jinkx wasn't even there for the hometown stop. I think the Vaudevillians was still running at the time.

The finale of Newhart gets a lot of talk for the scene where Bob woke up with Suzanne Pleshette. But I think it's also remarkable for the way it openly referenced how bonkers the show had become by that point. The only way to shut the show down was to make it even crazier.

Anchorman's big fight scene is a little like this, although it's not as tonally different and there's a scene where everyone talks about how weird it was.
