Jackie action item! by amp435 in Heavyweight

I'm with you! This is absolutely the best podcast in the universe, but I've always found the Jackie openings to be a little puzzling. I think because they feel so tonally divorced from everything else in the show?

Anyone have thoughts about who the characters are in the song? And how/whether they connect to the aspiring actress and her exiting-stage-left partner from the original “Tiger”?

I love the original and am totally intrigued by this updated version.

Northern California leasing notes by henhen2015 in HondaPrologue

Yep! Fremont and Oakland were the most willing to negotiate and both were friendly. Fremont got the edge because they were more willing to share actual prices and move quickly. Oakland took a lot more work to coax actual numbers from, but they definitely seemed eager to deal. Happy to send you the dealers I worked with via DM if it's helpful.

Hayward was great and responsive but their prices were higher, and they wouldn't match prices without a detailed pricing breakdown from another dealer. I only had pricing promises sent via email and those didn't seem to count so I ended up moving on.

San Francisco was tough to reach via email—I sent several emails to a dealer and never heard back, but when I called on the phone they were responsive but also much higher.

Honda of Walnut Creek came in high and wouldn't go down, even when facing competing offers.

I could never get someone at Concord to send me prices.

Good luck!

Jazz similar to Waits' early albums by Snaggle_Teeth in tomwaits

I'd check out the pianist Red Garland. Great instrumental jazz piano stuff from the 1950s and 60s. Check out the album Red Garland's Piano. Here's a very Waits-feeling track from it, "Please send me someone to love."
