In this episode, Carrie tells of her pilgrimage to our nation’s capitol to seek out the only existing Nando’s chicken restaurants in America, and gives a review of this rare culinary delight.
Luke tells of his recent adventures in fandom, and of his intolerance for the intolerant.
Ken gives us the lowdown on the Bears / Packers game, and we have some news that is partially weird, and partially stupid.
We also have music by Flat 29, the great Luke Ski, Amy Lee Radigan, Stienski & Mass Media, and Peter, Paul, & Mary. What? Yes.
And don’t forget to go to MarsCon Dementia dot com and order the 2011 Fund Raiser album. Please? Thank you.

Holy crap, Big N’ Tasty is a name I haven’t heard from since Wingin’ It 3D went away. Hey Big, if you’re reading the comments here, I just had Eliza on my show The Casting Game for the gender-flipped Star Trek episode. I’d reply to the iTunes review, but sadly my computer has caught some kind of bug that has rendered it incapable of linking to any on-line music store; iTunes, Zune, even eMusic. It is really weird.
P.S. Carrie, I’ve seen Wicked live too. It’s a great show. Did you love that sorta Steampunky “Wizard” as much as I did? It was like seeing one of the high-end Disneyland robots.
The last decade is called the Naughties(as in naught).
My favorite none alcon convention moment was back in the days of the 99/2000 area when i was shy and virginal(yes i used to be extremely shy before i met most of you). me and luke would go to cons together. it was just him and me, there was no dementia crowd to speak of. Dr.d was dj’ing at a marcon dance. early in the night, dr. d started playing the “dungeons and dragons” sketch. at a dance, this was an odd thing because there was nothing to focus your attention on. very uncharacteristic of me(for my old shy self) i started heading up front to act out the sketch. Luke had the exact same idea. i don’t think it could have gone better if we rehearsed it. we seemed to be in perfect sync with me taking on the role of the main dm and luke acting out every other character. afterwards, every one gave us a round of applause and dr. d came out to announce us(he didn’t know my name at that time). after that, every one at the dance followed what ever me and luke started doing. also very uncharacteristic of me for those days, i asked a girl to dance with me. not just 1, but 3. i had 3 girls dancing with me all night. it was a great night!
Most recent con memory? Seeing Blasted Bill dressed up as Sgt. Hatred from the Venture Brothers, and so I did my Sgt. Hatred voice for him.
The craziest con stories of mine tend to be rambling anecdotes like you’d hear from Uncle Kage. In fact, one of my con stories ended up as part of Uncle Kage’s Story Hour…
I certainly don’t have anything to comment about, and yet I feel the urge to have my name mentioned on your podcast. I just want some validation. That don’t make me a bad person, does it?
