Thursday Show Ideas
Easy Thursday show idea: "political" talk shows and why they suck or maybe: how not to suck at doing a political talk show.
More ideas: "How not to suck at being a criminal", "How not to suck at being a criminal defendant", "How not to suck as a U.S. Supreme Court Justice", "How not to suck at being a zombie", "How not to suck at driving", "How not to suck at being involved in a motor vehicle accident", "How not to suck at suing/being sued for being involved in a motor vehicle accident (or anything else)", "How not to suck at building/being an evil robot", "How to defeat a robot army", "Who would win in a fight: Hulk or Superman, Thor or Superman, Batman or Captain America, Rush Limbaugh or Randi Rhodes, Chuck Norris or Bruce Campbell, Max Baer or Nolan Bushnell (this can go on forever), "Mandatory Minimum Sentencing Guidelines", "How magazines were thick in the 70s (like Scientific American or Omni - whatever happened to Omni?) and they're really thin now, but in real dollars they probably cost more now", "The Commerce Clause", "How Catch-22 changed my life and why did all of Joe Heller's books suck after that?"
That's all I have time for now. Hope it helps.

Thursday Suggestion: The Origins of The Front Row Crew
I, for one, suggest a show on "If our alien overlords really exist somewhere in the universe, this is what they are like...."
But guys, if Rym and Scott needed Thursday show suggestions, then they would have asked for them.
*hint*
What we really need to do is start re-answering things we cover in the forum for the multitudes of listeners who don't frequent them. ^_~
Spammers should die in a fire.
Ticket to Ride: Europe
The Mac Mini
A calzone in the South Bronx a month ago
A badge for Ohayo-con 2
That's pretty-much it. In fact, the calzone is the only one I actually regretted, and only because I was too polite to demand my money back from the man. All the rest I salvaged and was able to get at least -something- out of.
We tend to put a great deal of consideration into any substantial action we take, and as such are rarely disappointed. Still, we could do a show on how to avoid doing things you'll regret, and how to salvage bad situations. ^_^
Time machines and what mischief you'd get up to if you had one.
DVD collections of suck TV shows: Who out there is buying Season One of "Too Close for Comfort"? and why isn't there a DVD collection of "The New Show"? Which season of SNL you'd buy if it was collected on DVD?
I'd like the season in which Sigourney Weaver was on the premiere. I think this was '86 after the really bad year. It was the dawn of awesome with Dana Carvey, Phil Hartman, Dennis Miller, and Jan Hooks. Weaver did a musical number with Buster Poindexter in which they covered "Baby, It's Cold Outside" I would love to have a copy of that.
