I get my first Skype calls from aboard (or is that “a broad?”), push the pins, and complain about Braniston Pittefer because I just can’t care. You’ll figure it out.
I play “So Last Year” by New York’s The Bad Mouths.

Very funny show. I was laughing out loud about your Skype calls. – Steve
Hey, great show!
I’m waaaay behind on TBP episodes, so I just listened to this one – left you a vmail (you could put the actual numbers ont he page too, to make it easier for those of us who have rotary dial phones without the letters).
Had another though regarding your commentary about checkout-lane mags (you know the ones). I think the relationship between content and revenue is more complicated than the “somebody must be interested or they’d put something else in the mag” view that you talk about. I think that what they’re really selling is an view at “greatness” that people seem to want, but that the actually tell those people what to be interested in by what they put in the magazine, not the other way around. In other words, they’re selling a way-of-life kind of thing, but they tell thier patrons what that way of life is supposed to include.
I know, way too serious thinking about social issues based upon what was (probably) intended as pure comedy, but I heard social commentary in your material and felt driven to comment.
Anyway, be well!
k.
Man, that spelling sucked (so much for proofreading). Corrections:
“actual numbers ont he page” should be “actual numbers on the page:
“Had another though regarding” should be “Had another thought regarding” (or “Had another thigh regarding”)
“that the actually” should be “that they actually”
and “thier” should be “their” throughout.
Oh, for an edit feature….
