Its an excellent interview. we actually get to see some of tim minchin. most of the time its all about comedy, these have a lot more "Tim" in them

[redsrugby]

this interview is actually fairly decent

[oxhello]

OH MY GOSH! I just had an out-of-the-blue intertextual moment with my two people on my wall of legends. Tim Minchin and Chris Lilley. Officially, I'm more in love with them both, if that was even possible. c: Yes, I'm really really weird.

So there we have it: Tim Minchin listens to the Skeptiks Guide To The Universe, hehe... in case you guys don't - sub to the podcost - it's awesome.

God, he thinks about everything, glad I don't think that deeply, i've studied philosophy for a short while and realised I don't think deeply at all, it just hurt my head & depressed me so i think i'll let Tim think and just enjoy the jokes :-)

[sfurner]

Damn... I wish I grew up with him; befriended him. I love you, Tim.

[Jaychra]

Yeah I agree, I like seeing the thought that goes into everything he does, it's really great to understand. I love that he's a philosopher, and an artist, and a scientist, and into probability, it all comes together so ideally ^^ <3

"Tune in next time when we've done the double-blind experiment on whether altruism or crack whores are better for making you feel good about yourself...."

Lol - a lifestyle of snot and babies.
