Stuart, thank you so much for doing such a wonderful job!
After I got past my too-hot audio level and figured out to mute myself when I wasn’t talking to avoid heavy breathing into the microphone, I had a great time on the show. .
Thanks to Bevan for asking me to participate, Stuart for filming and posting the video (that I took great liberties with in a narcissistic mashup version http://vimeo.com/8956435) and Phelan for moderating.
Are you all complete Moron’s, and do you not see the devastation of your actions on this earth, and the people who inhabit it?
Did you actually watch this episode?
