Vichus Smith from the comments thread for #181:

Maybe Wordpress. Regardless, Blogger doesn't feel like it's changed since '06. It stinks...is what I'm saying.

I really don't have anything to say to that, but I'm moving this to the current episode thread, because I'm tired of it reading "0 comments".

PCX is pretty much all recorded through ep. 201 or so, but are you available to record an episode? I figure it's about time you were on the show. If you don't want to, that's fine. No rush either way though, obviously.

Devolve is a scifi word. It means when a creature or society evolves backwards to it's previous levels. So even though evolve means to undergo gradual change which could mean better or worse, higher or lower, in scfi terms many like using devolve to mean going backwards or worse. And that's how language evolves, thru usage of new words and phrases.

Multitasking is a myth

Cop out or strange moral lesson? Cop out by the writer. The universe is in harmony? No, it's the universe can't be change cause then what do the other writers write about. I hate the "(Universe, world, Galactus, Aunt May, etc) can't be change because it's (perfect, necessary, destined, forbidden, etc). Sometimes it's an okay story theme, but other times, return to the status quo is just tiring.

Ghostbusters 2 sucks. It's just GB1 with older cast, kid gets taken instead of the woman. Plus they added the stuff from the cartoon so not to confuse the kids. Which I don't understand, how stupid can a kid be not to understand this is a different version. Like I remember I was 5 and I understood comic book Batman was different from Superfriends cartoon Batman and those were different from 1960's TV Batman.

Is slimmer a retarded kid. Are ghost in the Ghostbuster universe dead people or something else?

Comic book scanners probably scan too much to check for defects. Or minor defects they miss or just think they are minor, grow from converting from one format to another. You should interview a scanner.

In case something like your heart attack happens again do you have a contingency plan?

"Honey, fuck." So Courtney would say to her younger self, "Honey, fuck."? Talk about ironic, isn't that what we generally tell Courtney most of the time? "Honey, fuck."

I'm still annoyed that later, lesser writers (I'm looking at you, Marv Wolfman) basically retconned this story away.

Interviews are boring. Although I wouldn't mind asking Stan Lee if he ever feels guilty for taking the credit for all the stuff Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko actually came up with.

As far as contingency plans go, I'll likely just leave the podcast to Courtney. She's young enough that she's probably the most sensible option.
