This is great - shit's got nerdy viral potential all over it. I could also see it being picked up for This American Life (At least a piece of it anyway).

Jonathan Coulton is involved in something that you want to "go viral"?
Pft, good luck with that. 
Great job, Jesse. Everyone involved was really excellent. I'm already in the process of sending it to people.

I heard that the best way to "go viral" was to put the phrase (and quotation marks) in a Blog Post.

So this thread's going viral too?
Since I'm posting again, I might as well compliment it again. It was really great. Look out, Cat Takes It in the Jewels! You've got some competition.

This was fantastic. LOVED Hodgman.
It has Xeni in it, so it's guaranteed Boing Boing if nothing else.

Xeni was super super good. I asked her because I knew she had a great voice, but I thought her acting was great.

Here's a downloadable version of the audio and video. It is a torrent.
If you need a myspleen invite, email me and tell me your favorite TSOYA or JJGo moment. This is not a test of your taste, just a test of whether or not you are a random person who googled "myspleen invite."

Loved it. I thought everyone was perfectly cast, but particularly Andy Daly. Let's all resolve to make him more famous, shall we?

I think that Farrel/McKay produced HBO show is going to do the trick, if it's any good (and I've heard good things).

This was really fantastic. I loved the cast... I LOVED the YouTube video. I'd love to see more of this sort of content on TSOYA (which is not to say that I've ever been disappointed by the show).
