This week's episode is all about fresh experiences, like Travis' new horrible segment, or the first Pumpkin Spice Latte after a year of not drinking Pumpkin Spice Lattes. Out with the old, in with the new! (Actually, we're keeping the old.)

Suggested talking points: Pumpkin Spice Latte, Open the Briefcase, Stoneymoon, Extraordinary Accent, Sad Libs, Jerk-It Sheath, Bounce O' Clock, Get Busy Living Together

Episode 72 MP3

Before Lindsay and I got married, I would tell her that if she was not good we would have a "Stunnymoon" instead of a Honeymoon. We'd have to stay in the closet. We'd use a bucket instead of a washroom. It'd be so romantic/stuffy/awful.

She was not pleased. But apparently Griffin is on board with my idea. So, Griffin, I think we need to get doublemarried.

I once decided to pronounce certain words the Canadian style, and it then became a sort of unconscious thing I kept doing without realizing it. I don't know how that's possible for an entire accent though, unless you're just awful.

When one of my students asked what time it was, I replied "it's bounce o'clock kid." And now every time someone asks what time it is in our classroom, one of the children gives a similar reply... Did I mention this was a pre-school classroom? Yeah, their parents are going to love me!

Please read "Grant Andrews, Kid Cop" in the next episode!

When listening to this, I thought, "OOH, maybe Starbucks makes a skinny pumpkin spice latte!"

But they do not.

Then I was sad (on my own behalf and on behalf of anyone else who would like delicious seasonal coffee beverages that are more appropriate for their food needs than a regular latte is).

Then the Mad Libs story made me laugh until my eyes watered, so I was happy again.

Travis needs to ask for, nay, DEMAND a mad libs segment.

Agreed.

Spontaneous Foreign Accent is a condition associated with specific neurological conditions -

Doesn't mean the bitch ain't crazy - probably proves the point.

True, but foreign accent syndrome tends to affect things like intonation. The way the question was written seems to imply it's affecting word choice too. Which means it's either a very severe case, or this person is just a dolt.
