Keith finally did it, he convinced me space is dumb.

Tom Scharpling is one of my favorite people on earth. It was a serious delight to see this in my player this morning!

I would like dating sites to add, "Do you recline the seat during flight?" It's such a telling thing.

Also. Keith took this Tom Sharpling ep to near Danny Hatch/ Chris Gethard levels of bro-mance. Hilarious.

ALso also. HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHEMDA!!!

Just a reminder to those who haven't donated to the Kickstarter yet. There may be a few donations/ $ raised/ thus far. However. None of that means anything if the goal isn't met. Unless the goal is met; all the money donated is returned. Thus raising nothing.

It really takes everyone getting involved to make it happen. Also, KATG has managed to get Staff Pick status on Kickstarter. This is from so many fans helping out in the past. Even if you're hurty in the pocket, (which who isn't half the month) you can still put any amount and help contribute both with funds AND being a backer.

Two numbers are really important in Kickstarter: # of backers and $ raised. I donated because I live in the middle of nowhere. Montana may as well be Australia or London, (well, London in terms of distance and Australia in terms of drunkenness) but I don't get to go to KATG tour. I DO however get to buy a couple cases of beer, hang out in my underwear, and watch the, (hopefully) upcoming KATG Marathon all weekend.

If you're new and not familiar with KATG Marathon; it is an experience worthy of any bucket list. Cameras around the studio with tons of your favorite KATG Guests. Complimented by a chat room full of KATG fans. Drunken madness. Stories told that probably shouldn't be. Body parts bared. Memories made.

It's Marathon time. It's 10 year celebration time. Hope everyone takes a second, goes to the Kickstarter, and gets involved.

I voted yes, but I'd like to point out that I didn't "give." I backed the marathon/tour. I expect y'all to run a 30 hour marathon and then tour to at least Norman, OK (close enough to D)

Gifts are what I send to Danny for his bday, or because he asked (he still owes me a shout out....)

Unless you sent Danny a limited edition, low print run, Mountain Goats vinyl single of Maybe Sprout Wings, signed with a silver metallic pen, you can just shush your filthy mouth.

This being said, I respect your level of KATG fandom. Go fuck yourself. Please don't die. See you at the marathon

This was the first time I'd heard Tom.


It will not be the last.

London plane is falling down? This would make a good Bond film.

R2D2 and Cp30 are the Abbot and Costello of Star Wars.

The discussion regarding People Magazine's reporting about Kirk Douglas' death reminded me that there's a website devoted to whether or not Abe Vagodia still alive.
