  1. Gotta give props to Howard for sticking with the format, even thought you could clearly hear that he wanted to get this one over with. All the randomness that makes Howard great...gone. Andy even mentioned several times the look on Howard's face. But he really didn't have to. You could hear it in his voice.

    Someone earlier said that the show works when the guests stay within the confines of the show and that's absolutely true. The comedy comes organically, through the here and now conversations. But Andy was trying way too hard, bringing things in from the outside when he didn't have to. He's naturally a funny guy. I kept saying to myself, "Ok, he got it out of his system" but he just kept it up. Flashes of Brody Stevens, I tell ya...

    That being said, the show remains why I look forward to Wednesday every week.

  3. Another must listen. Listening to you two banter is all kinds of goodness.

    I had no idea Scott was a big Prince head. Nobody can touch him in my book. How frikkiin awesome for you guys in LA to have been able to see him mutliple times. I like what someone posted earlier about Scott schooling Harris on Prince, but I think he already likes him, judging from his reaction to Scott saying he digs him. So, they'd hafta get someone else for "Analyze Prince". But as far as THIS podcast is concerned...um, more Prince talk please!


  4. While I look forward to this show every week and love the conversational aspect of it, I've always thought it could use a little structure rather than just jumping around to different parts of the movie. How 'bout like a beginning segment where you just talk about the premise. And then have like an Act I where the first half is discussed, and Act II for the second half (maybe even an intermission segment?) and then the listener comment segment. I realize this would require more prep to do, but just some ideas.


  5. I think a good way to deal with the repetitiveness of counting down the weekly charts, especially the movie chart, would be to do a...(in his best Kulap whisper)...Chart Flashback. Pick a date, or use that day's date but a previous year, and do a chart from then. It'd be great to hear stories/opinions about past hit songs and movies. And it sure beats going to some obscure foreign chart in an attempt to mix things up.

    I can already hear Howard asking the guest, "What is a young (guest name) doing in July of 1995?"
