Thanks to all of you for tossing your arrows and getting a round in. Next time we will be back on our parts of the body series with a look at The hair. If you want to bring a comb to the party, but don’t have an invite, you might like to read this helpful guide first.
Dart art from this fine fellow.

Darts is TELEVISED? That must be as exciting as televised bowling or golf.

Um… that should be ‘Lipstick’ not ‘Lipstick Killer’ for the Buzzcocks track.

Magical? Notsomuch for me, but the podcast is magical, as was your singing, JC! Enjoyed this one.
James, loved that intro. You had me laughing out loud at the scary HH band.
I think my favorite song was Suede’s, though. Thanks, Kevin.

I’ve been thinking that after these 30 years, it would be wonderful to have nothing to do but scuba dive, snorkel, and get high.

Nat- It doesn’t sound like a bad gig at all
. And I agree, the podcast is magical.
JC- I really hope you sing to us some more.
And I hope Tricia has a wonderful trip!
I was so curious to see how this one would turn out… great as always. Loved that Half Man Half Biscuit especially.

I love the podcast but I hate FiL’s characters. Are they supposed to be funny?
By Simon on 09.19.09 12:35 pm
Simon, we love our contrasty music and intros. ALL of them. And FiL is especially fun.
