    When he said "Roxy & Elsewhere" was the best Zappa album, I immediately liked this guy. It really is the essential Frank Zappa album to own, you understand? The band is top notch. And its a great mix of the zany, the rock, and the jazz fusion.

    I'd go with One Size Fits All but It's splitting hairs. I cannot wait until the film is on DVD.

    I was equally pumped when he said this- to me, of any Zappa album, Roxy and Elsewhere is appealing on the broadest of levels (though I do have a special place in my heart for One Size... Inca Roads, Sofa, and Andy are flawless). I saw Dweezil do Roxy in Milwaukee about a year ago, and it was flawless.

     

    As far as the DVD, I've been hearing about it for years. If you ever visit a Zappa discussion board, there is a lot of vitriol about Gail and the fact that it's not out yet. Internet commenters are the worst. Present company excluded.

    Seriously, an ad every time you pause and unpause it? Come oooon soundcloud

     

    Good ep though. I got you a gift - used chopsticks

    Thanks for explaining- I get my podcasts through the Podcasts app on iPhone and didn't understand what the complaints were.

     

    Howard and Stard- don't be so hard on yourselves for not being prepared to be on your own without Ku! I could listen to you guys just shoot the shit all day long.

     

    That said, thank YOU Kulap! You are the glue that keeps things on track, and your heart felt thank you was very touching. There are a lot of podcasts I love, but this one is so funny yet feels very personal. Much love.

     

    Edit! Kulap made her goal!

    When Howard starts to sound like Peter Brady going through puberty, you know we're in for a fun ride!!

     

    On a side note- I've noticed it before, but it definitely appears in this episode. What is Howard's deal with cursing? He censors himself a lot (like guh-damn and eff-botch) but sometimes he doesn't. I haven't listened to a few of the old old episodes- is there a back story to this any that I've missed?

    I love how honest Jimmy is about his "0-60" moments, especially in front of a guest. I really enjoyed Jason Thompson too. He seemed very comfortable in the interview. Though I've never really paid much attention to General Hospital, I was an avid Bold and the Beautiful watcher for years. I was impressed by the work that went into that show, and it's only a 30 minute soap.

    I was confused about the Chilton/Replacements thing. Wasn't sure if it was a joke re: the song title, or Jimmy actually thinks Chilton was involved in the Replacements. P.S. This is not negativity.

     

    I thought the same thing- at first I thought "WHAT?!?! BUT HE KNOWS SO MUCH ABOUT MUSIC!!!!!!!" and then I thought he was probably joking.

     

    I cringe too at the negativity that comes in some comments on this (or really any) forum. Criticism or questions are different than being an asshole and shitting all over a show. I think you're safe. If Jimmy read your response, he would probably merely mock you like Elliot.
