So is Utah in general big on Celine Dion? I'm pretty sure every song in the background was something from her.

I know. I ended up carving out the five minutes we spent talking about that and slagging off Celine Dion. I was afraid Canadian listeners would revolt.

Should be extra content at the end.

I feel bad for not sending in an email for the show especially after you sent in a VM for mine. But hey there's always 2012 right?

Jamestown is a great game, Greg Kasavin suggested it when he was on the show. Very good but very weird. Also the actress from MI4 is Paula Patton, she's married to Robin Thicke.

I'm revolting at the fact that you *didn't* include it.

I think Canada's pretty much over her. She belongs to Vegas now.

Also, Josh can rest safely knowing that any new Wii he buys will have a Wii Remote+ (the one with Motion+ built in) in the box.

After the chicken and watermelon comment, I should revolt. Why does your co-host continue to make these comments? I like the show but stuff like that will force me to stop listening.

Wouldn't blame ya.

Happy face!

It has just started showing in Oz, episode 3 was on last night, Steve Coogan is a funny man.

The two of them singing Kate Bush was priceless.

The thing I loved about that series was that undercurrent of sadness throughout. The Brits are so fucking good at being funny, while being grounded. Our comedies could be so much better if Americans hated themselves just a little bit more.

You sound like some sort of turncoat.

God bless America!

They've definitely mastered intermingling the subtle and the sublime in the same breath. There are advantages to a literary backdrop that goes back well over half a millennium.

Absolutely agree Mik, Steve Coogan's characters are always a sad lot, and your right about that being a theme in Brit shows. I hate happy people.

There is nothing better than a completely depressing conversation followed by some funny banter! I love how self aware the characters are.

I look forward to the rest of the series, and for once won't download it (am enjoying the one episode a week thing, just like when I was a kid).
