Too spooky is the Boxcutter's kiss of death. Who will be next?!? I await with baited breath and will surely take a deep breath next time ANY actor's name is mentioned!

I think the video podcast (boxcutters.net/vlog) has been doctored! If you look very carefully you'll notice John isn't moving at all. Or is that Brett...?

It is truly scary what Josh can do just by saying someone's name.

I'm not sure you guys want to make him angry... you wouldn't like him when he's angry and he'll probably start naming names from here...

Luckily, as we've seen before, I have immunity because I've been on the show. That's the antidote, people. If he's named someone you really don't want to die, arrange for them to be on the show.

Those back flips are awesome. Nice job, whichever one of you is the Acrobatic Boxcutter.

Please stop killing people. I'm scared.

I told you guys to put that thing down before you hurt someone again. Now look what you've done to poor KM.

I think you should change your podcast just like like show you mentioned on Channel 31 where there is only music and scenes (no actors or talking). You should just have 40 minutes and every so often have a guest segway. then we can all be safe.

I'm with Catbrain...
Brett, you did it, again! Poor Karl Madden... Perhaps you should not pronounce any names of TV personalities over 60? They will be able to rest in peace (no punt intended).

You did it again, Josh. You mentioned Karl Malden and LOOK WHAT HAPPENED.

A little saddened to hear of Mollie Sugden's demise too. [insert vag double entendre here]. More recently (a few years back), I remember seeing her in The Bill, playing an eccentric grifter.

Huhn. After all this time organising <<Mr Black>> for the show, and he never showed?

DAMN YOU, <<Mr Black>>!

I loved Genevieve Lemon. She was great.

I suppose your bananas weren't bilingual? I guess that's how they could get around the cancon rules.

But did they kill Ed McMahon? Is there a statute of limitations on Josh's vocal death curse?

you guys did kill farrah fawcett though.

I had *no idea * that Bananas in Pajamas was Australian! I watched it on the CBC every morning when I was growing up- I always assumed it was CanCon. I can't believe that they would dream of messing with the formatting. For shame. :(

Quick someone scour the episodes for Josh mentioning Michael Jackson

This was a really entertaining episode - I laughed a lot!

@alex: When we have people in for interviews, I can be a bit distracted if they're not great in their mic technique, with riding levels so they're high enough while the subjects are talking but then not too high while others are talking which leads to a strange effect as the loud mic picks up the other voices. Gen was great and I could set her and get more involved.

Also, I was loving my deep, husky voice - because of the shouting on the footy field on Sunday - and actually just used it because I literally loved the sound of my own voice. Normally I find it a little nasally with teeth and tongue lacking in enunciation.

Along with it sometimes being a little hard to get a word in edgewise in the studio, sometimes it's too much work to be more dominant.

@Bolden: Eastbound and Down starts locally, Wed 26th August 8:00PM on SHOWCASE

Guys, any idea if Eastbound and down is coming to Aus (Foxtel or FTA). Sorry John, but it sounds interesting.

Was great to hear Brett talking more! Sometimes it seems like he's just the panel operator who has a few news items and that's it!
I like a nice even spread of yammering amongst you boys :)

Here's the Prisoner dream sequence:

Honestly, it's just like David Lynch.

And here's Genevieve performing Midnight Oil's Blue Sky Mine on The Sideshow from 2007:

Look on http://www.sue-annpost.com.au/ for Sue's News. The trouble is, there's been no gig posted since last year, and I've only heard her twice since then. Both times it was to read out a chapter of the book she's writing.

Just a little clarification. The mortgage monster I was talking about was the Wizard Mortgage Beast. It's no longer used but I found a couple of references: http://web.archive.org/web/20050204091011/http:...
