Odds, Ends

1.  Martha returns!  And she brings pie!

2.  Also returning is Pundit Review Radio— a nice bonus being that Newsweek International disappears as a result!

3.  Speaking of radio, “The CITIZEN JOURNALIST Report” is on indefinite hiatus. It’s all my fault.  I am to blame.  I am to blame.  I am to blame. 

4.  Cold Play’s Chris Martin channels Che Guevara.  Or some such. Honestly?  If Kristofferson or the Marshall Tucker Band ain’t singing it, I ain’t listening. 

5.  Can’t get enough of the Newsweek scandal?  Try “Hubris, Inc,” from the New Editor.com.

6.  Finally saw Team America the other night.  Question:  is being aroused by puppet sex wrong?  Because if it is, I don’t want to be right! [Insert wood / wood joke here.]

    Right, and Jeff’s caveat that he’ll do it if we have a booker, researchers and production values has nothing to do with it.

    Turing word: radio (I’m starting to believe the conpsiracy theory about turing words)

  2. dorkafork says:

    Hehehehehe.  “Insert wood”.  Hehe.

  3. Joe says:

    Puppet sex is hot, baby ! Must be all that friction – you know, rubbing wood … damn, that went south fast. I know there was a joke in there somewhere …

    Move along, nothing to see here.

  4. Diana says:

    6. It really does depend on who’s pulling the strings.

  5. Jeff Goldstein says:

    Stop being a pussy, Bill.

  6. Alpha Baboon says:

    The real joke about the puppet sex is that the censors actually required the sex scene to be edited down before they’d give it an ‘R’ rating instead of ‘NC-17’ in theaters.. and the freakin’ puppets dont even have genitals !!! hahahaha They just kind of go through the motions like the dancers on MTV Beach House… Goddam we’re a screwed up, neurotic country..  big surprise

  7. Scott P says:

    Bummer about the show, guys.  Are either of you thinking about going it alone?

  8. Mark says:

    So I take it your farewell post will be as such:

    Lord knows I’ve been gone too long

    Lot of sad days, yeah

    One day you’ll turn around

    and I’ll be gone

    And the time has finally come

    for me to pack my bags and walk away

    grin

  9. 3rd_Bird says:

    Nothin’ to say really, scrolled down and saw turing word: friends.  God I hate that show.

  10. Jeff Goldstein says:

    Bummer about the show, guys.  Are either of you thinking about going it alone?

    Dunno.  I still kinda want to do a show, but I don’t want to stress about finding guests, which was the most difficult part of the show.

  11. Alpha Baboon says:

    For what its worth, Jeff, I think you’d do an excellent radio version of Protein Wisdom.. You could interview some of the weird people that appear in your bits.. Martha.. The Insurgents in the Bunker.. Ward C. & Billy Jack.. Leif.. Jeff Gannon’s 8” Porn Cock of Truth.. The Kleagle Hat..  Youve got a million characters to work with.. but it would have to be at least somewhat scripted and that would mean a hell of a lot of work for you..and a hell of a lot less time to gambol with the boy.. but it would be hilarious.

  12. Kim Jonk Il says:

    I’m sooooo ronery!

  13. Matt says:

    Well, for those of you who saw Team America in the theatres (or downloaded it from disreputable websites, you evil evil people), lets just say that the parts of the puppet sex which were edited out to clinch the R rating have been err… re-inserted.  While the puppets don’t have genitals, lets just say some of the final moments of the DVD puppet sex scene are … well.. disturbing and pretty damn disgusting. 

    Rent it to see what I’m talking about.

    “Probably” the closet I’ve ever come to tossing my cookies while watching a puppet show.

  14. Diana says:

    “Probably” the closet

    Heh!  That had to be a slip of the thumb!

  15. gail says:

    You’re not implying that Matt was using his thumb in any inapproptiate way while talking about puppet sex, are you Diana?

  16. Diana says:

    Depends on whether it was Bert or Ernie.

  17. MC says:

    CITIZEN JOURNALISTS demand radio! What about the HIPOCRISY?

    Something in that Martha post convinces me that I shall not try the recipe. No matter what I do, I cannot escape the conviction that there will be something else in it.

  18. Diana says:

    … and that would be …. toture?

  19. MC says:

    Hi dearest Diana kiss

    Toture in the pie? Eeek! I hope not. My mind was farther a-wash than that.  red face

    Spam buster youre. Never seen a misspelled spam buster before. Surely, it meant yore as in bygone days and how I miss ‘em.

  20. Scott P says:

    I still kinda want to do a show, but I don’t want to stress about finding guests, which was the most difficult part of the show.

    I wouldn’t think it would be that tough once you were ‘in the loop’ with the more conservative publishing companies.  They’re always shilling books and authors.

  21. Daniel says:

    America.  Fuck yeah.

  22. Diana says:

    Dang!  I’ve never seen MC say EEK! before! cool grin

    “For what its worth, Jeff, I think you’d do an excellent radio version of Protein Wisdom..”

    Maybe you could add a sidekick, an Ed McMahon to your Johnny Carson.  But, you would have to find someone with a fawning persona…

  24. Ana says:

    Let up, Ultraloser.

  25. gail says:

    Yes, please do. One grows weary.

  26. I hate to admit it, but Alpha Baboon’s idea is great.  All you need is a guy who can do impressions.

  27. Martha’s pie is much too aged!

  28. Bill from INDC says:

    I think that you’re a fine young man, ultraloser.

    Stay gold.

  29. ultraloser says:

    Will do.

  30. Master of None says:

    I don’t think Chris Martin will have to worry about being part of the “capitolist system” for very much longer.  Soon, he will be bitching about all of the taxes that are taken out of GWEN’S checks.
