Hey friendos,

Sad (but not totally shocking news) today that Corey Haim has died of an apparent drug overdose, we'll reminisce about how awesome Lucas and License to Drive were.

Also, we'll get an update from Jen about how the meetup with the AtlanTens went. And, it looks like Luke might have to start watching Larry King Live again. Full explanation (with audio evidence) coming up.

Probably not.

Let's just start with that.

Even though it's about former teen parents, and the mom works as a
radio host, in Portland (which is very Seattle-ish), and the dad is a
lovable rogue who loves him the booze juice, I've figured it's just
coincidental. Lots of you have been emailing me about it though, like
Kate in Iowa. She'd also chalked it up to coincidence, until she saw
this promo photo for the show:

That is kind of weird right?

Okay, maybe it's not that weird. But if this show is ripped from the
headlines of my life, and I was too ugly to play myself, then consider
me very sad.

If you need me, I'll be at the bar, lovably rogue-ing it up, talking
about how I have a radio show and was a teen dad.

I am just taking a moment to be sad by the news of Corey Haim's death this morning. Obviously it's not a surprise, but it just snuffs out hope. Of course I don't know him and won't pretend that an actor overdosing in Hollywood has great importance beyond the devastation his family and friends feel. However, I have great sentimental attachment to him because he was a movie star when I was growing up and that's a connection that somehow endures. Since the last 15 years his life seem like such a waste of all he was given. I think I'd rather spend time with Lucas and The Lost Boys...when he was awesome.

We're back in Seattle, and gosh darn it if there wasn't the Bestest Christmas Surprise Ever waiting for me on the front porch, my long awaited, cat toilet-training system (as seen on TV and Skymall Magazine) The Litter Kwitter.

On Today's show I'll break it out of the box and see if I can get Vanessa to budge on her 'anti-toilet training our cat' stance (she thinks it violates Pagoda's essential 'feline dignity').

Also, we've got an update on the guy who died after peeing on a live power line, turns out the TBTL Science Council maybe knew what it was talking about after all.

Oh, and there was a little mixup with yesterday's audio file, it's been taken care of now, so you should be able to hear me totally lose my voice live on the Imaginary Air. Speaking of which, things are much better today, owing to the 15 hours of sleep I got last night (seriously, I'll tell you about it on today's show).

See you then.

Before you judge me, ask yourself, could you pass up this 'make your own bloody mary station' on a lazy Sunday morning?

Hiya friendos,

We're in Portland today, spending some quality time with my sisters (Liz and Sarah) and brothers in law (Josh and Jason) and a small person who lives inside one of my sisters (name TBD). The great part about having family that works in the restaurant business, is that they take you to freaking amazing places to eat, and are constantly putting out wonderful spreads of foods/beverages (see above). The bad part, is that they take you to freaking amazing places to eat and are constantly putting out wonderful spreads of foods/beverages (see above).

We've got lots to talk about today:

- Last night's Oscars were both very historic and very boring at the same time (a hard combination to achieve really).
- Zach Galifianakis pretty much crushed it on SNL (although I thought a lot of the funny would have happened whether he was there or not)
- Jen's been embracing local life in Georgia really hard, maybe too hard.

And Vanessa's got a new best friend she's bringing to bed with us and frankly, it's really starting to worry me.

All that, and a small amount more, coming up in just a bit.

See you then.
