#077: February 1967 (w/John Hodgman) - "Mike Murdock Must Die!"

If you don't know who John Hodgman is, then good lord, we need to
fix that:


Start by listening to the Judge John Hodgman
podcast on the Maximum Fun network. It's a fake internet court
whose primary jurisdictions are pedantry and spouses who have
come up with elaborate alternative systems for things that didn't
need them (they're almost always guys, and they're almost always
wrong).


Then check out some of his New York Times bestselling
books, like Vacationland or
Medallion Status (now available in
paperback). They're like instruction manuals for weird dads who
are barely coping with middle age.


Finally, the animated FXX short-form animated comedy series that
he co-created with David Rees, Dicktown,
is now streaming on Hulu. Imagine an adult Encyclopedia Brown who
failed to thrive and still lives in his hometown, solving
mysteries for high schoolers. You can watch it all in an
afternoon, and you'll be delighted that you did. 


FINALLY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY PLEASE VOTE AND DONATE YOUR
TIME TO ENSURING THAT LIKE-MINDED OTHERS DO THE SAME!


If you are a Biden/Harris supporter and/or want to ensure that
Democrats win elections up and down the ballot, please help in
the way that you're asked to help and sign up for phone
banking and text banking.


If you are not a Biden/Harris supporter and do not want Democrats
to win in November, we respect your opinion, and we hope you'll
still participate in the democratic process on Election Day,
November 8th.
