    During the concert in Toronto on July 6th, local U2 tribute band "Acrobat" got up on stage and played Desire while U2 left the stage to watch. Bono came back up to do a harmonica duet with the

     

    Rollingstone and many other news orgs did interviews with the band afterward.

    Full disclosure, Gabrielvox is my brother and I shot this video. See for yourself

     

     

    At the end, Bono said "It's nice to meet you finally, I love your early stuff" LOL

     

    These guys are fantastic gentlemen and U2 megafans of the highest order, and I think they'd be willing to come on the podcast. I know we could all use a new episode too.

     

    Bonus: the bassist, Mark "u2brothr" Baker, made a documentary last year about his quest to get up on stage with U2:

     

    Although at the time of the documentary finish, he had not reached that goal, it has happened twice now in the span of a month. See this clip of u2brothr dancing with Bono, rocking him like a baby

     

     

    I tried tweeting at Scott and Scott but I got no reply. Anyone interested in the Scotts doing an episode on this and potentially wrapping it into a u2brothr documentary discussion?

     

    Help me get their attention by posting in this thread!

    The Sanders essay was satirical. It was not good satire, but his point definitely wasn't "rape is great!"

     

    I suggest people read the full thing. It's pretty apparent when you see the whole context instead of just an excerpt from the first paragraph, which is the thing that's getting propagated in the media.

     

    Yeah it was terribly written, but it was not a "free form what he was thinking" essay like the lady in the audience was suggesting. Here is him discussing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AblFtHxIP8

     

    He's also a terrible singer

     

    Personally, he's such a good statesman that I'm not willing to throw the baby out with the bathwater. I would recommend watching the full speech he gave during his presidential announcement:

     

     

    Matt, can you please bring this up on your next podcast? Besides Elizabeth Warren (and she's not running for president), no one beats Senator Sanders on his honesty and his progressive policies.

    Double Decker tour guide from San Francisco goes on a racist diatribe against chinese people on her last day of work. The video below is from "Secular Talk" youtube channel, somehow affiliated with TheYoungTurks.

     

    The host sets up the video and then comments on it after it is done. The lady is done ranting at about 2 minutes in, and she gets applause at different points from the tourists on the bus. Then at the end she gets some of them to chant "Fuck Chinatown" over and over in unison, while they're going under a tunnel.

    Clips from a local cable access show from Winnipeg, back in the 80's. There are no words to describe this show so I'll make one up. It is a real fuckerydoo.

     

    Highlights include "Muscle Dancing" (@ 5:20), and a cringe inducing karaoke style trio with former WBC Light Heavyweight Champ, Donny Lalond (@ 1:25)

     

     

     

    PS, Rockin' Ron and Nifty Natalie are brother and sister

    Hey Paul, this is not a question, per se.. I just wanted to let you know we are Double L brothers

     

    (Laserdiscs and Lucasfilm games)

     

    I heard you mention both of these. I have only known one other person whose parents had owned a laserdisc player... My dad still has one and over 400 laserdiscs!

     

    Also thanks for all the laughs over the years.

     

    Ok I thought of a question: How is your day going?

    she smurfed his smurf under his desk , put a cigar up her smurf, then he smurfing enjoyed it during a golf game. I did not have smurfual relations with that woman, he said. She got his smurf on her dress, which smurfed him over big time. She then went on to make smurfy designer purses and will always be known as that smurf
