Some Soggy Pastrami

We love Andrew. And like the rest of our loved ones he drives us crazy sometimes.

Just One More Thing

New York Times columnist David Carr died on Thursday night. The guys did a great job eulogizing him and there's little praise I could add.

Harper “Buddy” Lee: You Can’t Bust Her!

I spent a blog "week off" mourning the Sea-Yuks loss but I was still listening to the show. There are so many issues it feels like time for my first USA Today/Larry King style post.

Touched “a” Verve… or “The” Verve?

On the morning of January 23rd, 2006 my phone rang while I was eating breakfast. I had a sore throat so my "hello" was weak and hoarse.

WANTED!

I haven't heard yesterday's show yet but something strange and scary happened to someone I know in Seattle yesterday and I need your help.

King Tut: DEFACED!

For once I am in TOTAL agreement with Andrew. His rant about the new "Pizza Siri" from Domino's was spot on.

Heroball

For the first time in the history of the internet someone made an argument that changed my mind. Last night, my friend Nathan Adams posted a meme on the TBTL No Point Conversion fan page.

I have a bone to pick with both the guys today.

Tigger Alert

On Wednesday Andrew talked about his fear of being handcuffed, specifically behind the back. While I don't know how that would even work with his specific body type, I can sympathize.

Growing a Pear

While I enjoy fruit much more than Luke I am on his side here. Let's talk about pears. I've never had one that wasn't a pale imitation of an apple.

Weight Weight Don’t Tell Me

On Friday Andrew mentioned that he had a "wake-up call" at the doctor recently when he was told he was gaining weight and losing height. I am also becoming more of a shapely gal as I age but the point was driven home even more starkly recently.

#YesAllFerrets

Give snake owners, ferret enthusiasts, and recumbent bicyclists credit. They were trailblazers for the "look at me" culture.

Frontrunner: But Only In Sports Fandom

Happy New Year fellow Tens. I hope this post finds you in better shape than Emily and Cullen, who are coughing so violently that I'm sure they are headed to the marble orchard. While I do my best to take care of them I wanted to take a moment to tell y'all how much I enjoy being a part of this TBTL community. It's a bright spot in every day for me.

Dear Friendos, during the hustle and bustle of the holidays, it's easy to forget to take the time to raise a toast to the important things in life.

What's the best way to let someone know you dig them this holiday season? Terrible mall jewelry? No way.

#BoatGate

This week on The Gist Mike Pesca is featuring his favorite podcasts, and yesterday TBTL was in the spotlight. Mike played some the Cereal episode and talked about how much he enjoys the personal, confessional nature of TBTL. Then he coaxed two major secrets from our hero. It turns out Luke has multiple wooden boats and Susan Stamberg is Adelaide's mother.

North Korea wants to be a bully. But they can't actually push anyone around because their muscles/missiles don't work right.

Stop Podcasting Yourself, Andrew

I'm so disappointed in this tweet. For years I followed Best Buy on Twitter, relying on the electronics superstore as a moral compass and beacon of propriety. And now this?

Leave Me Alone, I’m A Framily Man

Andrew Walsh is a baby. Anyone who says he hates cheese but still eats pizza is a baby. Anyone who compares Brazil nuts to Macadamia nuts is a baby.
