On the show this week: -Sotomayor, Mr. Roboto-Profiting from Others' Misery Isn't as Easy as it Used to Be-The Hottest T-shirt on Amazon-Something Vaguely Entertaining We begin with Sanguinist deflating the joy of a couple of coworkers that have hit the milestone that is twenty-one. We also look at the continuing war between Sheetz and Subway for sandwich dominance. We also provide a link to DJ Lodger's first album. We close out the opening ramble by imagining Fran Dresher and Gilbert Godfrey having sex, wondering if Dick Chaney has had enough mechanical parts implanted to be classified as a sex toy, giving a look at the first Transformer named after a toy not recommended for ages 5 and up, and we anti-climax by failing to find anything by typing five q's and hitting âI Feel Luckyâ on Google. Our first (unscheduled) topic is the addition and subtraction of cats from the SVR family, and we then expound on the growing empire that is SVR. We also educate Autumn on things she's too young to remember and wish failure on Will Farrel's Land of the Lost. Sanguinist then starts us off with his strong opinion on Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor. And it's not based on what you think. Or, if you actually know him, it's exactly based on what you'd think. This leads to a discussion of how this pick, along with some other choices made, make Obama one smart politician before we pick apart G. Gordon Liddy's main objection to Sotomayor (and we float the idea of Ozzy Osborne leading the Largo clan on a Crazy Train Tour and Fantasy C-Span.) Largo also digresses onto a failed school shooting/suicide attempt after Marylin Manson gets mentioned. Listen to find the connection. We also discuss our coping strategies for high school teasing before Autumn revisits some of her classmates on Facebook and then look at how the Middle Class has been transformed into the voyeur class. Largo drags this tanker back on track, however briefly, by exploring how the pledge of health care reform has kept a certain segment of the stock market from rebounding. This quickly derails onto a discussion of how the Bacon Bra is the ultimate in male control (and we seek Zael's opinion on this as a vegetarian.) Autumn gives us a quick run down on how an Internet gag has made a shirt featuring three wolves howling at the moon the hottest t-shirt on Amazon. We also beg Stephen Colbert to mention us on his show and explore the possibility of burning our show onto Canadian Bacon DVDs as a Collectors' Edition of the show. Largo and the Boy move us onto our final topic by reviewing Drag Me to Hell. Give a listen and see why Largo doesn't think that it's as good as the critics seem to. Spoilers abound. We also digress onto a discussion about how when a horror movie is critically acclaimed, it gets rebranded as a suspense film or a thriller and how Autumn wants to make a horror film of her own. Sanguinist then closes the show by telling us about Colin, the zombie movie made for seventy dollars that stormed Cannes.
