    For those who miss Howard, he still wanted to put something out and tell people what's happened this week, so he sent this to me to upload to Soundcloud for him (??). It's him attempting to record himself from Dragon Manor, and it's great. Consider it a bonus chart.

    With the sounds in the background, I couldn't help but compare this to Brody's Festival of Friendship podcast.

     

    Kremer, 818 till he dies! :)

    Compared to last May, Armen sounded a lot better this time around. Last year he couldn't get to the middle of a sentence without bailing. On today's ep, he finished his thoughts. I like this sentence-finishing Armen. C+.

     

    More importantly, it was the JDR ep, and again she knocked it out of the park. Somehow, someway Howard and JDR need to see a movie (something with space or monkeys, or both), and then have them give a Siskel & Ebert style appraisal.

    It's already kinda weird that Jenner's being brought up by comedians at all. It's 2015! I guess they (I feel weird about using any pronoun here, don't want to misgender) were on that Kardashian reality show. But regardless, I think the comedy community can do better than continually ribbing someone who has very likely had a really hard life.

    Of course, you can expect Jenner to be a punchline in certain circles *cough cough* Carolla.

     

     

    Aaaaaanyway, I ordered a Casper mattress this week and used the NNF code! Looking forward to it showing up next week.

     

     

    I'm old, and I can remember Jenner being a decathlon athlete, Olympic gold, apple pie, swathed in the flag, Wheaties, all that. For years after he would show up doing show-biz related battle of the stars. He's an American symbol of the 70's. His old persona is one that is engraved on the psyche of those old enough to remember those days, so I can see why his/her transition is comedy material, it's the big contrast. Well that, and everybody saw the changes going on, but he delayed mentioning it. Not that it's anybody's business.

    Seeing that Jenner has deflated the ball, I don't think he'll continue to be the fodder that he has been.

    Running in flip-flops? Yeah, I know a guy. Well actually, I've run with him a little bit (he runs with everybody!). He's Larry Perrier, and he's known as the flip flop man. There is even a video of him:

    Okay, so we have a lot of fun at the expense of Florida, but Larry is a positive part of Florida.

    The first time I encountered him, it was dream-like. I'm heading across a long straight bridge, at the far end (about half-a-mile) I see somebody running, but they are wearing a cape. I figure my jostling while I run, coupled with the distance is messing with my perception. A minute later, I look up, we're even closer, same problem. A person running with a cape flowing behind them. Another minute passes, and we are close, I need to be on guard, because this isn't making sense.

    Boom, just as he goes by, he's wearing the straw hat, a poncho that is only tied at his neck, no shirt, wearing flip-flops, and carrying a quarterstaff. Mind blown.

    A year passed, and then I stumbled onto an article about him, and realized he wasn't just part of my imagination. I took a picture with him the one day I ran with him. He has aged quite a bit the last couple years, but he ran me into the ground, and he talked the whole way! All I could manage to do was huff & puff.

    Sorry, this was supposed to be about the podcast, but when you meet these folks in real life, you have to share.

    As far as Lewis Hamilton's F1 champagne bath, in F1 it is known, that when the bottles are brought to the podium, all other folks are supposed to leave. The podium will have the top three racers, and a representative from the winning team. Four people on the podium only. If you stay on the podium, you are telling everyone that you are sharing the celebration. He shouldn't be punished, because she would have been told beforehand, and would have been directed in dress rehearsals. Monaco is the lone difference, the drivers have to step away from the podium, since they are given the race trophies by the royal family. The F1 podium is carefully scripted.

    The only time there is no champagne celebration is if there is a disaster, or if somebody has lost their life during the race.

    Wow, Whitney is high energy! Felt like I was riding a bull anytime she spoke. Nice person.

     

    The EMF elimination threw me. I don't think you can avoid EMF by disconnecting your wifi. Wouldn't you have to kill the power to your living space, in order to decrease that field?
