Tim Goodman's TV Talk Machine

51: From Amy Sedaris to the Dalai Lama

We are known for being all over the map, and even all over the world, but on this podcast we ponder why we're popular in Britain when they have to pay for the call. We discuss the fact that our 888-prefix hotline actually blocks Canadians from calling. (Maybe they don't want to pay for the call?) Question Boy (Chronicle media writer Joe Garofoli) wants people in China to break out to freedom and give us a call. I opt for South America, which is apparently ignoring us. In other news, we talk about why the TV Critic shouldn't be on TV. We bust out the multimedia shorty robes ("that's a cable, right?"). Question Boy does the Worst...British...Accent...Ever. Which means we'll probably lose all of our British listeners. We end up apologizing for this (and soooooo many other things -- which will come in Vol. 2). I denounce nature. Joe does Andy Rooney. But more important: Angry Regis. A lot of our e-mails were long. Really long. And so, unappreciative as we are, we ask for more calls instead. Oh, and we act out a reality show idea passed on by a reader: "Bars," about actual drunks and tosspots. Later, we decide we should do a whole show like this. "Again."
