Quotes[]
- “Dan, I've come unstuck in time! A minute ago, I was 60 years old and I was in a space cage! And then, two minutes ago, I was a toddler. So I…what time is it? What year is it? Where am I?”
—Elliott @03:00 - “I like this new anecdote-based direction this podcast is headed.”
—Dan @07:00
Elliott: Let's make one thing clear. I feel like we've talked about this a lot on the podcast, but we should reiterate it. This is not an ironic appreciation of Nicolas Cage. Dan: Yeah. We're not making one of those shirts that has a bunch of faces of Nicolas Cage on it, that you can wear to your fuckin' Williamsburg bar, you hipster shit! Stuart: (I think I have one of those.) Elliott: You asshole! With your Hanksy graffiti, with your celebrity puns! Ya piece of garbage! You know what? Bring a garbage bag to throw this piece of shit in it, dump it in the ocean! Stuart: Yeah, why don't you climb on top of your giant-wheeled velocipede and ride off into a toxic waste hill, so you can become Toxie!
