Yannick_B posted:While plugging that interview on twitter, Jon Wurster said there was no Best Show tonight (probably because Tom is off shooting a TV pilot!!). Yeah its going to be another Therese and Mike "Depravity's Rainbow" episode, which was OK last time, but definitely not the Best Show. I think last time Mike talked about his shoplifting days which was entertaining.

Sounds like Hatch is hosting this week, I vaguely remember it being entertaining the last time he did it. (I'm not usually a fan of "Depravity's Rainbow" )

I am enjoying The Hatch Batch trolling Zach from Mit Hamine way more than I should. Edit: And he blows it, awesome Edit 2: Even without Tom, this is one of the best episodes of the past few months. Billy Gnosis fucked around with this message at 04:06 on Mar 14, 2012 |

Het posted:I don't think it was but it's entirely possible? I don't recall his phone being that bad or his voice being that low I vaguely remember him calling in before doing a deep voice thing and then admitting in his normal voice it was Zach from Mit Hamine, that is what it reminded me of but I have to admit it could have been anyone doing a fake sounding deep voice. Though really who would wait on hold 45 min just to say the show is terrible?

Bath salt comedy! Mike reviews Kevin Smith's audio book! And Gary opens his mailbag!" I listened to this live, but don't remember the album actually breaking but I was kind of tuning in and out. (I do remember some of the late friends of Mit Hamine calls). Anyone have a rough time-stamp / part of the show for it happening? I can't seem to find it.

This week is Depravity's Rainbow instead of the normal show. I haven't liked it the past few times, would have much preferred "The Hatch Patch". I think its something about the lack of energy when its Mike and Terese.

Another Tomless week apparently. Hosted by Hatch this time, last time it was pretty entertaining as I've said previously, but the Low Times crew won't be there this time I think.

This week lacked Tom, but drunk Mike doing Skeevy never fails to amuse me. Also, I'm never going to think of Mike the same way. I think Skeevy talking about Mike's sexual awakening is the most disturbing thing I've heard on this show. Edit: "Oh my god, there was a child listening through that".

binky the doormat posted:Great Jon Wurster call last night. Just two completely different, insane stories (the Van Morrison/John Mellencamp cruise and the Howard Cosell hardcore punk movie) that still somehow compliment each other and are both signature Wurster. As far as I'm concerned the man is a comic genius. Yeah, I really was itching to re-listen to it today. The real question however, is how long till the guy from Mit Hamine blows it again? Next week?

This week is definitely an episode of "Depravity's Rainbow with Therese and Mike " . Which is a shame, since I find Hatch fill-in weeks to be more entertaining.

COUNTIN THE BILLIES posted:I usually skip the non-Tom shows. Tuned in last Tuesday and snore city. The Mike and Therese hosted ones are usually pretty low key, but the Hatch hosted ones aren't always, it depends on who else is there (if anyone). [Both (?) times the low times crew were there were great] Of course both are a million times more dependent on the callers (especially since a Jon Wurster bit isn't going to be on the table).

No best show this week: This week only: Todd-o-phonic Todd Special: Todd-o-phonic Todd fills in for the Best Show So potentially not even a "Best Show" style show either.

MaoistBanker posted:Speaking of FZ, this week's gem features Bryce tormenting Tom with his Zappa memories. This is easily one of the funniest bits I've ever heard on the show, the legend of "Jazz Fart". I hadn't heard this before, and I think I really wish "Jazz Fart" was a real song. The little bit of Jon Wurster singing it keeps on getting stuck in my head

Probably won't be a show tonight: From WFMU's website: "The Storm has taken out power at our studios and BOTH our 91.1 and 90.1 fm transmitters, so WFMU is now completely silent. As soon as power is restored we will get back on the air. Thanks for the many well wishers and we hope to be providing glorious radio over the FM airwaves soon. Fortunately everybody is safe and the WFMU basement is still miraculously dry. More updates will be posted right here."

Yannick_B posted:For a while it just felt easier to believe that Zach from Mit Hamine had this sort of unmodulated bit--the thing was a schtick but he wasnt able to entirely shade it in the right way...but then Tom gives him two minutes and it was the mother of flame-outs. The way his voice started to crack without talking back to Tom was sort of amazing and equally maddening. I can't tell how much of his political stuff is trolling anymore. Or really any of his actions. He definitely probably has the biggest ego of any of the callers.
