Yay, I’m in the podcast.
What was that about seeing someone pass out at 31-flavors?
TheBlunderbuss
It was a Ferris Bueller reference.
Mr. Me
I couldn’t make it out. There were some other parts too, that were spoken a little fast.
TheBlunderbuss
I am flattered that you posted my Johns SIMs in your Podcast. Your reading from the caption was probably the funniest thing I have ever heard. Very different than my own voice, but priceless.
And, in my defence, I’ve only played with those SIMs twice. And I’ve since uninstalled the game.

Cecil Portesque sounds more like Flansburgh to me.
tdk
I concur w/tdk.
Spike
I’d have to agree with tdk, because Flans is more inclined to do that sort of thing. “That sort of thing” being doing the announcements for the clock radio. I’ll bet Linnell’s interest dropped after the strain of Turtle Songs.

- Fun! Keep going with the podcasting, please.
– Lots of the girls on LJ seem to do that SIMS thing to TMBG; John and John are the new Barbie and Ken!
TMBG official podcast 1A:
– I am terrible at discerning this sort of thing, but I somehow think Cecil is Mr. Flansburgh. I can’t think why, though, but I can see him. His voice “slides” in different places from the other John, and it comes through the filter.
– Turtle Songs of NA. I am so enjoying it. Mr. Linnell is quite soothing when he’s being absurd. Perhaps he has taken a page from the Zombie Turtle song book.
– Particle Man Beatles-style is annoying to the max.
- Tippecanoe is very cool, very manly! I have to go vote now for William Henry Harrison for some reason. :)
