The Best/Worst Moments of last night's show

[Professor Mudd]

Frankly, I feel that erotic phone calls are for those that can't afford to hire a proper escort--then again, there is something attractive about the anonymity that those sorts of calls can provide (not to mention one's own health and well-being).

[P.W.]

From the chambers of the corn silo in Marceline, Missouri, we get a glimpse into the sick mind of Prof. Mud.

This was the pic I saw that made me go "fuck yes!"

It's a very bossy shirt.

Christina, I think we've discussed the fact that I too have a Listen to Black Sabbath tee. Mine is totally different than that one. How many could there be?

Dang. I think I'm losing my memory - I'd forgotten!

[dave from knoxville]

Yes, WE had that conversation too!

[SayHelloBirdy]

As others have said about Matt Fraction's in studio, it was very, very good among the best of the guests in terms of creative interplay with Tom, that idea of "glasses that are reading the thermal drifts of Axe body spray" was brilliant, not that we would really expect thing else from such a talented comic book author. Also the causal, well said and thought advice about getting started with writing seemed very genuine and kind.

Finally catching up on the segments I missed last week (had to work after 5pm Pacific time i.e. 8pm EST, hence no Best show until mid-way through)   TALL DWARFS!  "Nothing's Going To Happen"!  Musically a best moment already.  And I was just going to write a review of the Stroke 2CD benefit for Chris Knox here there and everywhere.

Mackro, listening to Superconductor?  I recently found one of their albums on a trip, huge heaviocity.  Also can't get over their cover of Song For Europe - insane!

[mackro]

What kind of trip did you find their album, the physical kind I presume?  WINK WINK

I'm just curious how much of Vancouver is now made up of Superconductor and children?  Does Thighmaster's family now occupy Commercial Drive?  And we haven't even accounted for Kreviss.

[fletcher munson]

Sorry, don't know Thighmaster or Kreviss, but what about A.C. Newman's involvement in Thee Crusaders  - spiritually uplifting shit, no?

[mackro]

Kreviss were the female super-rock group in Vancouver alongside Superconductor, who were mostly the male super-rock group.  Kreviss had their very pretty rocks, and they very rough and ugly songs.  I miss both bands greatly. 

Thighmaster was one of the members of Superconductor. 

I was just pondering the abundance of ex-Superconductor-Kreviss members in Vancouver today.. (similar to the Polyphonic Spree/Dallas thing)

Should really acquire Thee Crusaders stuff.

I heard that cover on EFD's show sometime last year and really enjoyed it. I need to find a copy of it eventually.

[Maine Man]

"glasses that are reading the thermal drifts of Axe body spray" was brilliant,

Agreed, along with the "They Live" reference.

[Maine Man]

"One boot kick away from being murdered"

Nice.

[Botts]

Chubby Checker impersonation

I'll second that.

Can someone please tell me which episode this was??
