Dan Podcast Guest Appearance ALERT

In our continuing effort to make up for the recent lack of new episodes, due to the one-two punch of technical difficulties and August vacations, we'd like to point you to the Overload the Machine podcast, hosted by NYC stand-up Rob Stern, which recently had Dan on as a guest.  Why not go and listen to him being startlingly unfunny while being surrounded by very funny folks.

Episode #86 - The Happiest Millionaire

Only an army could make us sit through The Happiest Millionaire... an army, or one U.S. serviceman, that is.  Meanwhile, Dan reveals the creepier aspects of his character, Stuart returns from his gaming convention with a surprise gift, and Elliott is forever thwarted in his attempts to bring American history to the podcast masses.

0:00 - 0:34 - Introduction and theme.
0:35 - 4:17 - We discuss our recent technical difficulties.
4:18 - 27:57 - You'd think there would be a lot to talk about in a three hour film, wouldn't you? You would be wrong.
27:58 - 33:00 - We summarily dispense with final judgments, to discuss Stuart's SURPRISE GIFT to Dan and Elliott
33:31 - 47:45 - Flop House Movie Mailbag
47:46 - 54:44 - The sad bastards recommend / plug.
54:45 - 55:52 - Goodbyes, theme, and outtakes.

Lastly, some folks dealt with the Flop House break with a little less patience than others, as this fan art will attest.  I hope we're square now.  Please release our families.
