Pay attention....Ve Vill Be Asking Qvestions later.


We cover a lot of ground today. Loads, so hope you're paying, as we will be giving a pop quiz at the end!

We start by talking about the Masters golf tournament, which was going on this week, and Greg was watching avidly....at the Cohiba store, where else! (We divert onto Barry Bonds and Martha Stewart...now there's a segway!)

Simon was busy this weekend too, with a photo shoot and a fancy schamcy dinner party (Roast pheasant no less...yummy.)

We do talk about our upcoming trip to northern England (Yorkshire) and the fact that we're going to be recording like crazy when there, for upcoming podcasts.

This week is the 150th anniversary of the start of the US Civil War.

Yuri Gagarin....the first man in space. The Russians have finally released the text of his exchange before he blasted off. His main concern was having enough sausage to eat in space.

We talk about the US government shut down, closely averted, but still.....good grief.

And when you thought things couldn't get any stranger. Holy crap....the FBI released a memo stating the a UFO did in fact crash in New Mexico in the 1950's. Holy crap.

4G network baby.....Simon just got it on Verizon. It's 7 times faster than his broadband (DSL). 7 times faster. The podcast took less than 2 minutes to upload this week. It usually takes 20 minutes on the DSL. Bloody amazing. Verizon rules.

Next week, the podcast comes from York, England. It might be Monday, as usual or it may be Tuesday. it depends how it goes.
