I liked that it appeared Darren Plopingtin's call turned into an impromptu music trivia contest.

Also, are there any details as to what exactly happened between Milo's dad and Tom? If it's personal then it's certainly none of my business, but they didn't appear to have any relationship beyond host-listener so I'm kind of curious just because I kinda miss Milo's calls.

I like how Mike Score from A Flock Of Seagulls pops up every now and then.

I do too. And I wondered the same. Milo coming back?

I only caught the first post-music 20 minutes or so, but I can say without any hesitation that the worst moment since I started listening was hearing that "Do It" was going to be replaced by a (choke) Queen song.  Gaaaahhh.

Four Loko (sorry for the dumbass age verification)

We can vote 4 a new Four Loko flavor ... I say we go with FUDGE.

Upgrade.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

While "Do It" offered a blast of thematic heft at first, it must be said that the song is absolutely terrible.

Well, there are people who inexplicably disagree with me on this, but Queen is about the most irredeemably wretched shit ever recorded. Sarah Palin's voice is like Mozart in comparison.  I'm just gonna have to turn the sound down for about three minutes and try to guess when the theme comes up.

I'm only an hour in, but I have to say this is my favorite best show in a long, long time.

Which Wawa was Tom almost trapped in by the irate homeless guy?  I ask because I was just in Philadelphia and my hotel, at Arch and 11th, was across the street from a less-than-ideal Wawa store.

I'm almost positive that's the one he was referring to. It's half a block from the Greyhound terminal and the amount of crazies in and around that area is good enough reason to stay away.

Yes, it was my first Wawa shopping experience.  I didn't have any bad time there, but I thought "so...  is this the mythical Wawa which I've heard about?"  Furthermore, at one point there was a bunch of black metal teens who just got out of a concert somewhere and they over-ran the store.  It was my second visit and I just walked in and walked out.

You are not alone in your opinion re: Queen.

I like Rollins' Do It.  Particularly when compared to the original.  I liked the Fairies sentiment but not the presentation

I think Hank got it just right.  I even like the junk guitar solo.
