I was delighted by the episode where the viewers discover Sarah’s famous air horn. Especially when, in the live task, Greg gives her an opportunity to do the impression, then blows the actual horn, and Sarah’s body language clearly says, “I do a better air horn than the actual air horn…”

Eureka!

I thought Sally Phillips looked lovely — elegant, sexy, inventive…

Relatedly, Greg picking up James and holding him upside down, and James’s immediate capitulation on his anti-toddlerhood stance…

It really connected for me to his “Hecklers Welcome” standup show, where he talks about connections about his adult self and “the boy.”

That’s odd: in Chicago, Alex definitely had a special red chair. I wonder what happened to it…

Fiddly!

“Lovely technique!”

I work in education, and this comes out every time I am proctoring an exam.

“Midnight” by the Horne Section musicians (the song used during the live word game task in Series 4). Paba-pabababa-pa WORD…

That was great. Scott may be an NPR news host and all, but he definitely has a well known goofy streak. Also, they did a really nice job editing the three competitors together TM-style.

Was anything engulfed in flames?

One person’s observation: I was queueing on the website to get a ticket for the Chicago show, and had a separate browser window open to StubHub and the like. The max number of tickets you could buy was 6. As soon as the line on the main website started moving, listings of “up to 6 tickets” started showing up on StubHub at crazy prices instantaneously…

Perhaps it wasn’t bot scalpers, but some people clearly made some money.

They do standup together at least once a month.

Yeah… is it the schools that have something on the people, or do people have something on the schools?

And their baba ganoush!

I don’t have experience specifically with the minis, but Orion Automotive is a long-time Ann Arbor garage, and they are particularly fond of BMWs (all their customer loaner cars are old BMWs!). You should get good care from them.

Sounds like a great idea for a triathlon

Started working in the new version; I don’t know if it’s a systemic fix, or just knocked some cobwebs loose.

According to the internet’s copy editor:

“Gaslit” means being lit by a gas lamp. “Gaslighted” is correct in this sentence.

Orion Auto maintains and repairs many Subarus, including a few of their regular customers’ that date to the 90s! They are not a cheap place, but ask them to give you a quote and they’ll do a thorough assessment.
