That's some high quality animation right there.
Got to see that as part of the TAL tour, in LA last week. Plus, we heard a John Hodgman story that didn't make it on the radio show. Score!
Can you please, please please interview Chris Ware?
"WFRT"?! Chris Ware, you devil!
Thank you for calling people like me a-holes for not liking This American Life on JJ-Go. I think the show is fast becoming the Mr. and Mrs. Smarty Pants show wherein you play the lady (the lusty Mrs. Smarty Pants). Keep it up!
Sweet! Has Chris Ware ever done animation before? This was really good. And he got in the requisite ChrisWare Quiet Despair Moment when they showed the beat-up kid's POV of the airplane flying overhead.
