Awesome episode once again. As for a thing Jordan mentioned during one of the breaks, I don't even want to hear the Penny-Arcade podcast anymore. As curious as I am, I feel like it'd be slightly heartbreaking. The Rifftrax, on the other hand, must be mine. Immediately.

Oh man, I need this to show up in my podcatcher soon. I was working during the stream, and got home just in time to hear Jesse sign-off.

It was the worst disappointment I've experienced since I found out the Easter Bunny wasn't real.

As I said during the record in the chatroom (and really, people, we need to do more chats), I think the PA "Lost Episode" would make a good one to give out to people who donate in May. I mean it's already done. It costs nothing (at this point) to produce and there's no messy postage action.

Fair enough. I forgot to mention that the Dave Hill contest questions were pretty amazing. I happened to know the answer to the "Hail to the chief" one because of Jesse's twitter. It was probably the proudest moment in my life. Also, Lebowski Fest sounds like what I imagine going to Bonnaroo will be like this year. I'm going to have to wade through a lot of terrifying people to see the bands and comedians I'm going there to see. I'm pretty certain it will be like a dirtier Lebowski Fest in which celebrating The Big Lebowski is replaced by celebrating the consumption of acid.

I'm a little hesitant to put up the PA episode of JJGo, just because it's lousy. There isn't even like an exciting fight or something. It's just them not wanting to be there, and making it clear, and us trying different ways to engage them. I think it's probably pretty boring to listen to.

At this point, I'd rather not hear it either. It's one thing if it was just a neat curiousity that was entertaining, but with all the awkwardness and bad vibes that came out of this, I'd hope J + J would just keep it unreleased.

Not to be hyberbolic, but this reminds me of the famed Lennon / McCartney / Stevie Wonder bootleg, "A Toot and a Snore." The description of it makes it sound amazing. Actually listening to it is really depressing.

Plus, if Jordan and Jesse really want promo stuff for May's MaxFunDrive, I'm sure the fans and users could help them out somehow.

BTW, halfway through the stream right now, and really digging it. It was interesting to hear about Marc Maron's pilot during the break, though I'm bummed it's not going to be made into a series.

I remember Marc mentioning that pilot in an episode of WTF (though I'm not sure which one specifically). It sounded pretty great. Apparently while dumpster-diving with some "Freegans" he got splashed in the face with garbage juice. As if hanging out with "Freegans" wasn't terrible enough.

Many of you may have seen one or both of these, but they're worth repeating:

Merton's Chat Roulette Piano Improv

Ben Folds's in-concert homage to Merton's videos

Can I get a sort of a Dave Hill vs. Dave Hill tale of the tape, preferably with photos, so I know who I'm dealing with here?

Also, Rifftrax what!?

(I'm only 30 minutes in, so apologies if this is covered in the show.)

NY Dave Hill


LA Dave Hill

I gotta say, when Dave said he wasn't into post-1990 metal I was a little iffy on him. BUT when he said he was into Pentagram and Darkthrone, I was won over forever and now we're best friends. True story.

Sure Jesse, we already know you prefer electro-gore grind.

LA Dave Hill wins in my book (despite the obviously jesse interest bias quiz, baseball, hip hop and movies were all but one question) only for the reason that he is from the town next to my hometown and also his voice sounds almost exactly like carlton cuse's, one of the show runners for LOST and co-host of the mega-awesome official lost podcast.
