Chrissy McIntyre & Brian Zagen
Brian thinks Chrissy is a left-wing feminazi British wannabe. Chrissy thinks Brian is a right-wing neo-con slacker. They don’t agree on ANYTHING, yet somehow they remain friends despite the verbal bloodbath that ensues every week. How long can this insanity go on before they totally lose respect for each other?
Fan-Dabi-Dozi, from the Krankies. Love your hair, Chrissy.
Thanks Donald!
Brian…I feel your pain! I worked at three grocery stores when I was in high school, and can share horror stories. You’re right, people working there are scumbags. @_@
Have you got anymore photos of the clown that Chrissy is pointing to?
My eco-tote is made from hemp, right?
I think I actually shelved some of that stuff before I quit last week.
How come they all have Abba haircuts?
Probably because they look so hot!
David – when you say clown, do you mean my friend Paul? I have loads of photos of him. He’s a photographer and you can check out his stuff on http://www.broomephoto.com
I like holiday photos, but why are you so interested in the disabled access to the building.
Reminds me of a “BEFORE” shot at an Atomic Bomb test site. Remember how they’d set up fake towns for testing the effectiveness of the blast. Needles to say, no mannequin survived.
Is that where the mic is plugged in or the headset?
I think we should all start a C&B show drinking game. Every time the new studio malfunctions, you drink
Here’s where the song came from.
Wow – thanks for sending that. I had no idea that stupid jingle (which is still stuck in my head) came from something else! You rock!
Fun with Iceland’s Eyjafjallajökul volcano:
The BBC made their news announcers pronounce the volcano’s name properly in news bulletins, sounding like “AY-uh-fyat-luh-YOE-kuutl-uh”. As a result, listeners were often unsure what they were talking about.
The brown ash settled around the UK. It looked like a thickish dusting of cocoa powder on cars. Sometimes enough to hide their paint colour. It was made up of 50% tiny glass shards, so it sparkled in the sun. If you tried to brush it off carelessly with your hands you could easily damage your paintwork, as if you had used sandpaper.
You would think the ash would be visible in the sky, but it wasn’t – there were often glorious blue skies above with no aircraft trails.
Someone wrote to the Times and complained that without the planes flying over they were woken up each day by a morning chorus of birdsong. But unlike the planes, the bird noise didn’t stop after a minute, so they couldn’t get back to sleep. “How much longer must we put up with this?” they asked.
Eyjafjallajökul started up again today – May 4th – and air space over Europe is starting to shut again. But Eyjafjallajökul is only a smallish volcano. There is a much bigger one on Iceland called Katla, and that is due to blow any time now….
Near to Katla is Laki. The Laki eruption in 1783/4 was so large the ash cloud and resulting climate change has been estimated to have killed over two million people globally, making it the deadliest volcanic eruption in the history of mankind. The ash plume also resulted in the largest accumulation of snow on record in New Jersey.
Yeah, that Laki is one huge ash hole. Okay, it’s at volcanic fissure, but I just couldn’t resist.
And if you drink it through a straw, it should get you drunk even faster!
That explains it! Subaru means ‘Pleiades’ in Japanese, which is why the vehicle’s badge has stars on it, and the Pleiades, of course, are known as the Seven Sisters… Now I won’t be able to go past one without remarking on who’s driving.
Holy Crap, I finally got my ecotote! Thanks Chrissy and Brian!
Hey guys, I was wondering if you could give me a little tourism advice?
I’m spending August in Connecticut with my godparents, but they’ve asked me to tell them where I’d like to go. Except I don’t have a clue what there is to do in that area of the US. We’re planning on seeing some sporting events and suff, and taking a trip into New York, but the tourist info sites are pretty much useless, so if you know of any places that might be good to visit around there then that’d be awesome =D
Cheers, can’t wait for the next show!
xx nikki
Hmm…that’s a good one. I haven’t been to CT too much. The only thing I could recommend is Mystic which has lots of boats and things. Also the movie Mystic Pizza was filmed there and I love that movie even if does have Julia Roberts in it.
I hear the beaches are very nice. Sorry I’m not more helpful than any of the websites you’ve checked out.
Great song….came from something else!
I wish we could have a gun law in England, trust me the streets would be silent.
Yeah, i think we were planning to visit Mystic to go to the aquarium, so I’ll bear that in mind too! <3
Wonderful the €, at last the EU managed to get over 1.30.
The gulf oil spill is surely one of the most disgraceful diasters of the millennium. While the destruction of the twin towers was limited to that small area of ground zero, this oil spill stretches out across the sea, impacting innocent animals, formerly beautiful coastline and also industry of the southern USA. I honestly pray that this disaster is sorted out as best as is possible.
Dear me, only listened to half the episode but I have some rather British bones to pick with you
1) American people using british slag sounds hilarious. People had told me this before, but I’d never experienced it. Stick to saying bucks, guys, and leave the fivers to us
2) Amusing as your british accents are, the idea of David Cameron talking like that is equally as unintentionally hilarious as you saying fiver. The conservaties, or ‘tories’ as we call them, are renowned for being extremely posh!
3) Brian – we didn’t vote the Tories in! We have a coalition government – in a nutshell, none of the three main parties really had a large majority, so the Lib-Dems (liberal democrats) and Conservaties made a deal to join together to form a majority, thereby giving us a government of both Liberals and Tories, with a Tory PM. Yes, we know it’s a paradox. Gotta love political systems =D
Man, that’s quite some craftsmanship
well done that man!
Nice foot! I’d like to see more of Barbara.
I don’t think the Toyota Prius is you, Chrissy. It’s certainly not Ridley. Take a look at the Ford Fusion Hybrid. This car is more you than you’ve ever been.
Funnily enough, there was indeed a long-running TV series about the Isle of Jersey. Called “Bergerac” after the main character, a detective, it was much-loved. You got to see an awful lot of the very pretty island and some fictional murders being solved.
Brian, your chances of being involved in an aircraft accident are about 1 in 11 million. Your chances of being killed in an automobile accident are about 1 in 5000.
You’re not being a big puss, Brian, you’re actually living dangerously. Happy Birthday!
Since when did being in your early 50’s make you real OLD? Thanks Chrissy
I love your show its great don’t ever end it and its a breath of fresh air
Aww, you guys are adorable
you didn’t have to apologise – I didn’t comment on last week’s show because I was on holiday in Connecticut (where, incidentally, I accidentally used ‘fiver’ and ‘quid’ with shop clerks. They looked at me like I was a crazy person…)! I just listened to both shows back to back while failing to sleep cos of jet-lag, and it made me smile so much 
Honestly, I owe you an apology – to be fair, I assumed your british accent thing wasn’t ironic because, as you know, all british people think you americans have no sense of irony! So, my bad. But while we’re not conforming to stereotypes, I think you’ll find in your email inbox a picture of my teeth, which are very straight, and I promise it’s not pulled off google images :L genuine british teeth! So, uh, ‘kiss my grits’ americans (I haven’t a clue what grits are or whether kissing them is good. I totally agree with chrissy – brits shouldn’t use americanisms either!)
Can’t wait for the next episode, and brian, have fun in vermont!! I soo wanted to go up there for the ben & jerry’s tour! D:
(damn. I’m clearly incapable of leaving short comments…sorry ’bout that!)
ahhh, laughing my ass off over here! Having learnt german for thepast few years, she sounds exactly l;ike my classmates did the first time we were told how to pronounce Deustch correctly, which I assume is what her name’s similar to, just without the ’s’. DOITCH! I guess she probably is saying it right, to be fair, just with a liiittle too much emphasis on it. Ahh, mispronounciations. A never-ending source of comedy (see ‘brian’/'NJ accents’ =P just kidding!)
‘donate the cost of a pint of beer’, you say?
Now I listen to a podcast who ask for ‘beer sponsors’ so they can drink whiole doing the show – how do I know this isn’t a scam, chrissy?!
Ha ha! Well, you can tell it’s not a scam because the link takes you to the Avon Foundation for Women. The donation goes directly to them to help fund a cure for breast cancer. It’s legit sweetpea.

Somehow I think it’s spam. What do you think?
Yeah, Mitzi is cute. Not as cute as that Babe in the Busted Tees ad. Scroll down and look to your right. See what I’m sayin?
