We talk a lot on our podcast about stuff we know well (good music, spreadsheets) and stuff we don’t (so we make it up). Since we can’t take live phone calls (yet), we would love to hear your ideas for some scintillating show topics. And yes, we’re also a bit lazy, so please do some show prep for us.
Best idea will win a t-shirt and some sweet-ass swag. Hit us up in the Comments Section below.

A few ideas of various kinds.
-The prevalence of fat and disease in the food (most) people eat–and why they should be doing something instead of sitting on their fat asses complaining about pandemic flu, etc.
-Flying tigers.
-NaNoWriMo–the idiocy, the genius and the nutcases, and how such challenges can help a person to overcome ‘I’ll-do-it-someday” syndrome.
-Favorite useless gadgets.
Just being silly, really. Good luck with the show.

topics (hope they are not repeats from earlier shows)
1. lamest christmas gift based on expectations. for example – as a 12 year, mom brings in very large wrapped boxes two weeks before christmas. my mind is going crazy – pinball machine, foosball table, etc. (should have figured it out based on weight, but expectations were out weighing reality). what was it – each person in the family got a new big fluffy pillow.
2. lamest family vacation. williamsburg, va – any place with blacksmiths and piles of horse crap blows.
3. unsafe toys we had in the 70’s. not only lawn darts. my cousins had a “mini oven” where we heated small squares of plastic that turned into plastic dinosaurs. you then reheated it – and stuck it in a mini vice to make it back to a square. hot, sticky plastic using tongs to move then in and out of the oven. it was almost impossible not to get burned.

Thanks People! These are excellent suggestions (except for that lame one by you… and you know who you are, try harder dammit!)

Best sit-com spin offs OR spin-offs we would have liked to have seen.
For example, Mork & Mindy = great Happy Days spin-off BUT, was it a better idea than “Enter the Malph” about the hilarious antics of Ralph Malph and his strip-mall dojo? Think about the natural tie-in you could have had with the late Pat Morita (the actual and original Arnold) pre-Karate Kid.

Music cluster// any 3 songs from the 1st 3 Zep albums
October 27, 2009 at 2:13 am |
1) Favorite TV Show Theme Songs, past or present.
BONUS: Theme songs I’ve owned as a 45 RPM single.
2) Product Preference Debates that get out of hand and why I don’t really give a damn. Think: Ford vs Chevy, Coke vs Pepsi, Hubba Bubba vs Bubblelicious.
BONUS: Share you own preferences (if, of course, you actually do happen to give a damn.)
3) Suddenly realizing you’ve developed a troublingly fierce opinion on a subject you’d just as soon not know anything at all.
EXAMPLE: I once found myself arguing the merits of a particular type of kitchen mop, used to clean the kitchen in a Mexican Restaurant, at which I wasn’t even employed.
4) If you could grow a third arm, where would you plant the seed?
5) Luis Guzman, and other ubiquitous character actors you’d like to see land a leading role.
6) Why do we continue to put up with _________?
7) Nicknames. Was Jeff ever a Jeffery, and how did the change come about? Russell to Russ? Todd to, well…you get the idea.
Thanks, guys. Show after show, the hits just keep on coming. Hit me, baby, one more time!
