That is completely nuts.

I pick saved ones now and then and re-listen to them (as I'm sure we all do at times) and this one came up.

GREAT episode. Just great. The movie quotes are wonderful.

That character is wonderful. Very....uh....nice, actually. Congenial.

Okay!

I do what I can!

That call, seriously, was golden. It comes out of NOWHERE too.

There is so much that I miss the 1st time through an episode, and the beauty of that call certainly didn't hit right away.

Can't wait for this week's podcast.

Glaser - Jon Glaser introduces him, then steps away, then Mehmet starts talking.

That's right! The second call is sheer beauty. I know what I'm doing this afternoon whilst I enter crap into a database.
