It’s funny to hear you guys talking about Monty Python and then making statements about liking ‘British Comedy’. Monty Python is a personal favourite and a key part of British comedy history and a lot of people draw inspiration from it, but it is history. It’s the equivalent of British people discussion MASH and Cheers and basing their theories of American comedy on just that.

Also lot of it only really makes sense if you have an understanding of what it meant to be British in the early 70s. A lot of British people now wouldn’t get it and wouldn’t consider it representative of ‘their’ comedy.

Also, as an Essex boy by birth now in Texas, while I appreciate that meeting people is hard when you’re on holiday and they’re not, c’mon Fitch, British girls are easy! They’re definitely less up-tight than American girls (thanks Girl Power).

“Never kiss on the first date.” LMFAO. If I didn’t get a kiss on the first date, there wouldn’t be a second date. Maybe if Fitch had some self confidence he could get a woman. She went on a date with you, so you had her. What happened? LOL

Ditch Fitch Hitch

You all spent 80% of the podcast talking about dating and Fitch’s love life. It’s really stale. If you want more people to subscribe and listen, I suggest talking about topics that initially attracted listeners in the first place…which is popular and nerd culture.

I have enjoyed the podcast up until the point where Fitch Hitch became a main segment, and I hope that you don’t continue to dedicate time to such a tangent.

Fitch, listen to Karen, ya gotta cut that hair. The percentage of women attracted to long hair is drastically outweighed by the percentage of women who hate it.

Um Ryan…Michael Weston has had an iphone for awhile. Remember when they were stuck in that parking garage and had to run over their own phones? I believe that was towards the end of season 2. Thats an Iphone.

He got a new one after that too. I haven’t been keeping up for the last 2 episodes but I do not think he has ever had a blackberry.
