I had to google this to check if it was a joke or real, and now I'm sad.

I just had what feels like a great idea - there should be an Improv4Humans/Fogelnest Files crossover episode. Basically, have the entire episode based around the Crap on youtube segment, with Fogelnest curating the videos. Also just have Lennon Parham be on every episode.

I nearly choked myself when you guys pulled that reference to Brimstone and Treacle. I bought a VHS copy of that movie for a dollar from a grungy video store in Quebec that was converting to dvds. Two things about that movie are burned into my mind: 1. the movie ends with Sting's character molesting this comatose girl and then jumping out a window, only for it to be revealed that in doing so he had cured her. I just checked wikipedia to make sure this wasn't a crazy fever dream i had, and yeah, that is literally how that fucking movie ends. 2. These two sentences were on the back cover of the videotape: "This film packs a bite - and a Sting!" "Don't call The Police - they're already here!"

I've had this weird bit of dialogue stuck in my head for the past few days, and I don't know where it's from - I originally thought it was from a Jay Pinkerton article, but after fruitless googling I realized it sounds a lot like a Would You Rather? scenario. So: people are talking about someone being stuck on a roller-coaster with their nauseous dad, and someone jokes about how the dad "gets queasy easily - he's queasily". This is like when a snippet of a song gets stuck in my head - it'll say there until I listen to the whole thing.

The thing that amazed me about this episode is that Kulap never thought to ask Howard how old he is in a stern voice.

Yo, Lander - check yourself! That rationale of "men are disgusting, this is a good reason for ladies to cover up" is the exact same attitude that enables rape and all kinds of bad shit. It gives men licence to be horrible, since the implicit message is that all men are creeps, and all women know this, and any woman that doesn't dress to protect herself from that is asking for it. Not necessarily saying anything about burkas/hijabs/niqabs, but that rationale is WACK AS FUCK.

I was going to write a whole bunch about how Night of the living dead created the modern idea of a zombie, and how it was pretty awesome and progressive about race, but then I remembered reading Roger Ebert's review of the movie, which is kind of amazing, not only because of its Sixties racism,: http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/19670105/REVIEWS/701050301/1023

I haven't listened to this episode yet, but I found this video on youtube and I had to share it somewhere: Jason (I think) wearing a bowling shirt and a wallet chain in 1999. I know it's kinda boring to make fun of old fashions, but on the other hand, look at those rolled up pant legs and those chunky plastic watches. And that soul patch. hee hee. Their set kills tho.

More evidence! "I don't forget."

The extended build-up to Garry Marshall's name is up there in the pantheon of the greatest PFT introductions.

You guys talked about how the podcast is making Howard nerdy like Kulap, but Kulap being confused about the word friday makes me think she's becoming more like Howard. One can only assume that they'll eventually become the same person. Here's looking forward to "One Charted with KuWie and WieLap" in 2015.

I know a podcast episode is good when I start weirding people out on the bus - when June said that Barb Wire is a feminist role model I blurted out "How dare you!"

I was confused the first time I read this, because my brain interpreted "binging" as "the act of using Bing Google to search the internet."
