First and foremost, we suck and took another week off. Reason being – and I’m going to sound like a big pussy – Kate and I haven’t had any time to spend together in the last couple of weeks, so we spent our only day off from our respective jobs together, which happened to be Tuesday. Instead of giving you a show, we watched gale force winds slam into Hampton Beach, NH, as this piece-of-shit hurricane barrels its way up the East Coast. Nothing is truly better than going to the beach on a 97 degree day only to be told to stay out of the water, for risk of “severe death.” That’s right, “severe death.”

Second, VOTE. VOTE. VOTE. VOTE. VOTE. I can’t stress that enough. Please vote for this mediocre show on Podcast Alley. It takes literally one minute, and it’s the only thing I ask of you, the faithful listener (hi Shyguy.) So go here: http://talkradiomeltdown.com/vote – enter in your REAL email address, and click the link sent to your inbox. Our ranking goes up, people notice our show in the Top 100 or Top 50, and boom – we have fans, and we keep you entertained.

Third, if you’ve listened to the last few months worth of shows, you’d hear me bring up Conan O’Brien towards the end of nearly every one. Clearly I’m the only one on the show who is Team Coco, and today Conan announced the name of his new TBS show. It’s called “Conan.” You should go here and watch the video of him announcing the title: http://www.teamcoco.com/blog/conan-announces-name-of-new-tbs-show/?iref=2166:-1
