I'll tell you what was particularly brilliant in this one - 100 bottles
of beer on the wall in code.

That, imo, is the best thing I've heard mental escher do, and I'm a fan
of his work in general. That was hilarious and eweird and awesome.

Yes, Awesome, Dude. A perfect bookend to the robot voice at the beginning
of the show.

The first two shows were Promising Starts. This one nailed it.

So, what's the next subject. Pop Culture?

pop culture seems a little broad.

how about something like this...

We each record 2 minutes of audio about whatever we like.

Then we decide on a theme, and in succession we each, except carl
(ME/Defwheezer), take our own, plus one other two minute segment, and
cut and paste the audio from both into a single 2 minutes on the topic,
which neither of the original segments was about.

The carl takes the frankensteined bits, and frankensteins that into one
long piece about the topic. Carl doesn't do a segment, but just does
beginning and ending to setup the theme, maybe explain what's going on,
or just do whatever he wants.

What does everyone think about that idea?

Dr. Frankenstein thinks thats a very (prone to complete anarchy) cool idea.
