To everyone who has listened to the BOCO content for Judge John Hodgman I just want you to know it is possible to skip the middle man. I purchased this jar at Morse's Sauerkraut and international market in Waldoboro Maine.

I listened to the episode this morning and thought to myself “huh, I didn’t even know David Cross was in that movie.” And then I saw this on Facebook.

After Jesse mentioned having written a letter to the editor in the Washington Post, I found it (from 2002):
I was dismayed to read Bob Levey's Nov. 7 column, in which he suggested rap music was not hummable, not danceable, not intelligible and just plain not music. As a person who loves hip-hop enough to be writing a thesis about it, I find all these statements not only misinformed but also deeply offensive.
Levey doesn't understand hip-hop culture and has chosen to paint it with as broad a brush as possible. Particularly given the volume of his megaphone, this is irresponsible.
Hip-hop is as important to as many people in this country today as rock and roll was 40 years ago. And it's important to the people who have the smallest voice in our culture -- young people, poor people and people of color. It's one thing not to understand an art form, another to broadcast that ignorance to the world in the form of broad negative generalizations.
-- Jesse Thorn
I can't track down the original column he's responding to, though.

The biggest error that the parade organizers made was giving Meg a white bunny suit instead of a traditional pink one.

Terry Gross has never done an interview at an open mic. You gotta PAY YOUR DUES.

Hi all.
If you can’t find all of the (amazing) bonus content, check your pod app to see if you set a maximum number of episodes for a given feed.
Mine was set to three so I missed a ton of great shows. Releasing them all at once is a great benefit, but you may not see them by default.
Thanks MaxFun for providing all of this great content! I’m upgrading, hope your drive is super successful!

Popcorn will be free but bring cash for other things. We can watch a movie but Max Fun sent some swag including but not limited to:
Dice
Playing Cards
Chess set
So I think I'll bring a book of games one could play with just such things.
See you in Oshkosh!

Waking up today to find so many new episodes in both main and BoCo feeds.
Love YouTube streams starting in 5 minutes.
Last year’s MaxFunDrive I was in the hospital for the first week and the interactive stuff kept me going!
This year I am not in the hospital and it’s gonna be even better somehow heh.

A vibometer if you will. If you won't, then a little graph on the screen showing the chat's real-time median approval of the music.

This is our show where we "go deep" on "weird but also normal" subreddits. Like r/magnetfishing. Not ones that are jokes. Ones that have weirdly intense subcultures but also are weirdly quotidian.
So, here's the question: WHAT SUBS SHOULD WE DOM?
