If you're planning on buying Maria Bamford's new cd How to Win, do it through this link to her online store and you'll "get a personalized signed headshot of Maria along with your copy of the CD, all carefully hand-packed and mailed by Maria herself!"

(thanks Omar!)

Thanks for the citation! Good Girls Win in 2007.

Listen for an interview with Maria on an upcoming TSOYA broadcast...

I'm also liking Clifford and Kidd, everything I've heard on the show from them so far has been great.

I would order that CD in a heartbeat, if it wasn't for the fact that they'd charge me $17.50 for shipping. The CD itself is $15. I mean, I'm as filthy rich as the next guy, but that's just ridiculous.

Martin -- if you want to have them send it to me, I'll happy relay it to you.

Also: re Clifford and Kidd, I've got one more sketch in the bank, and it might be my favorite of the three. They're really great.

Jesse, I loved the Maria Bamford piece, but I found it really jarring to play the naughty word backwards, as though she'd been possessed by Satan for half a second. I think I would have been less bothered by a drop-out or even a bleep.

Also, thanks so much for getting that @!#$ Hard N Phirm song stuck in my head again after I'd just gotten it out. When I'm arrested for absent-mindedly singing it to myself on the bus, I'm calling on you to bail me out.

You're right, Harold. Usually reverse it by habit (from editing rap songs, where a drop-out is startling). Will be more careful in the future.

Speaking of swear words...Jesse, have you thought about tagging JJG as "explicit" on ITunes? Personally, I love the swears but I can see how some public radio types might be shocked to hear phrases like "For the love of God, TALK ABOUT BUTT FUCKING, PLEASE!".

Which isn't to say that you should think about keeping it clean. One of the things I love about JJG is how candid and open you guys are.
