If you will notice, every one of this fucking queer's topics have nothing to do with american life, but everything to do with the unhappy, troubled, sordid existences of liberals, it should be called "this miserable homo".
i've so many memories of being stuck in my car all over dallas on sunday nights, because i couldn't pry myself away from the radio. when i heard you were doing showtime, i was simultaneously pissed (because it felt like someone was selling my soul), and intrigued... now my only problem is i don't get showtime in shanghai... so, ira, when you to shanghai to broadcast from the 2010 world expo, can you bring me a set?
This song was written and performed by me, Sarah Dougher. I'm glad you like it!
It will be out in the fall. Originally it was written as the music for a play by Euripides called "Orestes". That's what it will be called, and it will be released on the very tiny label, Cherchez La Femme Projects.
Thanks so much for this great work, Sarah. Truthfully, I'm sure I would never come across your work but because of this wonderful accident, i'm on iTunes buying the track. Thank you!
Can't wait for the second season. I hope they're able to get segments by some of the regulars, such as David Sedaris and others, from the radio show this time around.
Woot! Looks great, but I'll have to wait to buy it on iTunes. The waiting is the hardest part, but it will be worth it. I'm looking forward to the live event on May 1st though...have my tickets and mentally jumping up and down like a school girl.
Thumbs up if you're watching this on YouTube.

From Dallas to Shanghai? Quite a move!
You can get their two TV seasons on iTunes for about $10 each.

Seriously. Amazing. The audacity of Ira and crew to think, "Why not? Let's get Johnny Depp."
