While having cocktails one recent evening with Björn Ulvaeus and Steve Miller, they asked me if they might have the honor naming my next podcast. Not bad, fellas. Not bad.

Join me and my toady, Gavon Laessig (Puditocracy) as we clear up some nasty business with the Brits, confront poorly made puppets head-on, and engage in a heated debate concerning the multi-faceted allure of Ms. Pac-Man. Come, let me turn your ears into my cornholes.

Yeah, yeah. Right, right. Tremendous.

I forgot to mention that I would like to dedicate this podcast to my lovely friend, Sarah Mathews, that she might burn 600 more calories.

Get busy, tubby!

What about her damn husband?! It's becoming increasingly difficult to live in her shrinking shadow.

Who cares? They're all just a bunch of limies anyway.
Except for my noble Scottish forebearers.

Mag,

You are going to have to make an apology during your next podcast to me...your favorite co-worker and friend who upon occasion gets the 'jones' for a Arby's Beef N Cheddar and a Jamocha Shake. You have had a Jamocha Shake...I brought it to you and you liked it. No, I don't mean the Frosty from Wendy's that I brought you a few weeks ago...I do indeed mean a Jamocha Shake from Arfy's...oops...Arby's! Don't try to deny it! It is true, you just can't remember that far back! It has been a couple of years since you did indeed partake of Arfy's faire.

Damn! Guess I wasn't funny enough to make it on the second episode. I had a whole bit about your fan club all worked out. Damn, damn, damn.

Matt, sweetie, don't you worry! You're coming back, for sure!!
Giroux on the other hand...

Why isn't there a nice little "Subscribe to Podcast" link? If I can't manage the motherfucker in iTunes and thus on my iPod (I know I could right click, save link as but hello, that's why they make fucking buttons for shit) then is it really a podcast? My answer is boisterous and obnoxious Nooooooooooo! Put the pod back in podcast. Give me a fucking button!

That's not much of a blog. I want to read your writing, Maggie, not hear it out-loud. I'm at work, dammit!
