One of my favorite quotes from the Bob and Brian podcast. You can listen to their streamed show every day from their web site, or you can download the occasional favorite bit which they offer as a podcast: http://www.BobAndBrian.com/pod/BB_onDemand.xml is the podcast link.
If you just want to listen to the podcast bits in MP3 form, you can listen and download from this page. I could give you links to all of my favorites, but let’s make it simple: I like just about everything on the page that isn’t about sports. The Christmas catastrophe stories are a riot (be careful to not drink anything while listening unless you want it up your nose), and the home destruction stories and bad breakup stories are enjoyable. Steve Czaban, their sports commentator, gives his views on Brokeback Mountain, lists what he eats in one day, and argues why Al Qaeda should have an Olympic Team so they can show off their monkeybar skills. (That’s where I got the quote in the subject line above.) Plus, what do Hillary Clinton and the Wayne Knight Death Lizard have in common? There’s also a fun interview with a local couple that was on Trading Spouses.
I’ve been into Bob and Brian for years, ever since my brother (living in Milwaukee at the time) started letting me hear his albums. Bob and Brian, once a year, put together an album of their best stuff from the year and donate proceeds to the Hunger Task Force of Milwaukee. The latest album is Mexican Balogne Roll. They also offer a mondo super pack of their albums for the last five years, and it works out to about $5 each so I ordered one last week. (And no, I’m not getting any money for linking to it; it’s not on Amazon.)
Visitors to my web site, The Hutch, know that I do some audio editing. I took one of their skits, “Radio Baghdad“, and edited out some of the extended laughter and noise. I’d love to turn it into a Flash animation someday.
I call them “skits” but really they’re live radio improvs. The giggling from other people in the room actually improves many of these.
One response to ““Olympics without the U.S.S.R. is like Batman without the Joker””
