For a second, that cover photo made me think that this was a Nathan For You sketch.

I think I’ve only had the canned version of the Cherry Coke Zero maybe twice. But it is my drink of choice when I encounter one of those fancy Coke Freestyle fountain machines.

Anything that keeps a Will Harris Random Roles interview from being buried within a half of a day of it posting. Seriously, those things should stay on the top fold for a week.
