The Talk Show #57: The Banana Window - 5by5

On this special episode recorded while Dan was still on paternity leave, John is joined by guest host Merlin Mann. Merlin and John discuss Vegas, Disney, Pixar and more!

Not gonna lie to you. Being on America’s Favorite Podcast™ was a total thrill.

After a circuitous amble through problematic fruit, E-Ticket rides, ambient alcohol, housing problems in the Hundred Acre Wood, blackjack strategy, ATM fees, and watching your daughter learn to walk at a casino, we did actually get to a couple pretty great points about stuff. Gruber and Merlin stuff.

This was just so fun to do, and I really hope you guys like it too.

(And, yes, there’s also an After Dark.)

Whose ball dared the what now?

I assume this is something my wife ordered.

Is it about Christmas, or what?

Weird.

“Diagonal.”

The Talk Show #34: A Very Puffy Shirt - 5by5

The Talk Show #34: A Very Puffy Shirt - 5by5 on Huffduffer

(~33:00)

JOHN: We only have one TV in the house.
DAN: Oh, but it’s huge, Dude. It’s huge. It’s, like, a…60-…70-inch plasma.
JOHN: It’s a hundred and eighty inches. Diagonal.
DAN: You can see that from any room you want.
JOHN: Right. It’s twenty-two feet.
DAN: [laughs]
JOHN: Diagonal.

Gold.

Much as I love both these men, it took me listening to three full episodes to really get into it.

Now? Gold.
