Thank you for the link! That episode of Fresh Air would surely have been a Driveway Moment for me (and probably for Terry Gross, too).


If you haven't seen this already, I think you'll get a kick out of it:

We have gone quite a long time now, listening to public radio without an adjustment of our perspective by IPR. If this keeps up, we will lose our capacity to chuckle cynically during "Morning Edition," thus beginning an inevitable slide down the slippery slope to world Communism.

When considering all things, include the foregoing.

Thanks a ton for adding us & thanks for the nice comment, too.

We hope you like the music that's on our MySpace, songs "4:20", "I Wish I Were Gay", and "On The Green" (a golf rap) -- all from on our upcoming CD (Chubbed Up).

Sorry for littering with self-promotion, but a regional band like us can always use any help, so we really appreciate it & the MySpace Friendship.

xxxooo,

Brazen self-promotion:
We are happy to announce that some of our music will be on the television version of This American Life, Sunday May 4th and May 11th, Showtime Cable Network

Listen up, folks! As an arbiter of all that is intellectually and culturally valuable, I can assure you of this:

In the days and years to come, ownership of IPR's new CD -- "Good Morning. You Smell Nice" -- will be the hallmark of a person whose presence in the world is not a waste of precious space.

One caveat: After hearing the CD, you may not be able to listen to NPR without a snicker or, at the very least, a smirk. Sort of the way Monty Python made it impossible for me to take the BBC seriously.

Congrats IPR, I heard you've hatched a new CD. Maybe I can have the yolk? Thank you for letting the little monkey continue to have such a grand hairstyle, it's similiar to mine.

Thanks for the add...

Greetings IPR!
I like your monkey! When you have a chance, check out the "life's a joke" trailer. I think you'll get a kick out of it.

If there's one thing better than quality newscasting, it's quality newscast parodying. And books that need to be kept in the fridge.

Delightful. Glad to know you, Joe.

Seriously, you guys make me laugh so hard, I soil myself everytime I listen to IPR... which would be quite an accomplishment if it weren't for my incontinent bladder. So as a result, a lawsuit has been filed against you in Seward County Municipal Court for $54 million under the Americans with Disabilities Act for the cost of replacement underwear and shoes... and oh yeah, emotional damages. See you in court, suckers.

And to think, I was going to send you that digital audio longframe patchbay that has been gathering dust in my attic plus five cans of Dinty Moore beefy-like substance smothered in gravy for your canned food drive... but then you had to go and pull a train on my beloved Joan... I hope you're happy...

Spending most of your time in a bathtub filled with Ranch dressing while eating bacon sounds like a fun filled day for me... party party.
Nutritious and delicious! Yeah ya right!

I guess freezing dildos makes sense in terms of battery life but wouldn't they then be too cold for use? I wonder if there's some sort of sexual equivalent to the Polar Bears Club... and if so, is freezing dildos part of their club policy. hmm...
(p.s. read TRAMPS LIKE US... or at least order a copy off amazon... because nothing gives me more pleasure than watching my Amazon ranking plunge into four digit territory.... nothing that is... except frozen dildos!)

sure, why not? I just need the length of the monkey's torso, from the underarm to the hip and the measurement of the waist. What color and theme do you want?

It's perfectly rational to love IPR. Your Andrei Codrescu was spot on. I'm a big fan of his.

haha, this rational girl would love some irrationality in her life. I'm glad that IPR finally has a new episode and that it completely met if not exceeded my expectations! What took you guys so long? :)

Hi, folks! Your stuff is a real hoot, and one thing I love about it is the genuine affection for public radio that underlies the humor. It brings to mind this passage from Garrison Keillor's book, Wobegon Boy (I hope the quote constitutes fair use):

* * * * *
"Jonah Hadley's Journal" runs every week on All Things Considered, an audio essay, a liberal sermon with sound effects. Hadley is a good writer in the worst sense of the word: humorless, tone-deaf, smug, predictable, all gesture, no smarts. He'll talk about sugar mapling in Vermont, and you hear the crunch-crunch-crunch of footsteps in the snow and the drip of the sap in the bucket and some extremely laconic Vermonters muttering something about syrup -- they talk at a rate of twelve words per minute, which gives their mutterance an air of vast profundity -- and then Jonah Hadley ties it all up with a whispery voice-over, something solemn and flabby about tradition as a force for sanity in our lives, a few sentences that manage to bring in de Tocqueville, Bob Dylan, the quest for the Holy Grail, the African-American heritage, a quote from an obscure Sufi poet, the crisis of male identity in the nineties, the myth of Sisyphus, and the Easter bunny.
* * * * *

Keep up the good work. Those who bring laughter into this world have a special place in the World to Come.

I was wondering, perchance, if you'd like to hire me and "Daddy's Puppets" to do a segment with the monkey. Something where he gets smacked upside the head, chortles, then eats a hard boiled egg.
