The Magical Talking Hat

There’s a lot of childhood and nostalgia in this episode, folks.  The cookies our mothers used to make, the miraculous lunch ladies of William’s youth, and a spirited (though, like all our discussions, ultimately pointless) debate on the state of music.

Oh!  And William remembered that he’s actually seen some movies!

Also, the episode climaxes in a violent attack on Tony.  Don’t miss it!

UPDATE:  Azuretalon has been kind enough to ask his mommy for a cookie recipe similar to the one I talk about in this episode.  So here it is for all you lovely cookie-eaters!

Fudge Crinkles

1 package Betty Crocker SuperMoist double chocolate swirl cake mix
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
Powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350. Stir cake mix (dry), oil and eggs in large bowl,
using spoon, until dough forms.  Dust hands with powdered sugar, shape
dough into 1 inch balls. Coat balls with powdered sugar, place about 2
inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake about 10 minutes or until
set. Cool completely.  About 2 /12 dozen cookies.

I am pretty sure that I used a lemon cake mix, too.

We’re back!  You may not have noticed that, because we were still here, but we weren’t really, and now we are, so there.

Also, we go into depth about William’s various musical careers, and invent a new taste sensation!

No particular links, but we give you a special tip on a little-known author, so check him out.

Once again, we prove that we’ve got topic combinations you won’t find ANYWHERE else!  Go on, look, I dare you.  I’ll wait.

Couldn’t find anything, could you?

What’s more, we’ve got an original song by William in this episode!

Also, food porn.

This is the first of our earlier recorded episodes.  Don’t worry, it’s still original material… we just recorded it earlier than usual.

Anyway, in this episode Tony and William pave their own way to Norse hell, and we deal with the complex and turbulent relationship that William has with… well… William.

UPDATE:  Mark reminded me of what the links were supposed to be, so here they are.

This site is awesome.  You’ll have to find your way through, there’s no simple way.  But this is the thing that got me started on it.

Also, here is a cool page on a simple way to put up a podcast.  It’s how the Hat got started.

This is not the greatest episode in the world.  This is just a tribute.  Audacity crashed, at the end of recording the greatest episode in the world.  This is a tribute!

It’s a weird night, darlings, and Tony and William are in a weird mood.  Loss, sadness, and the terrible state of modern film all come together in a strange, awkward conversation beamed right into your ears.  Also, a topic from Azuretalon.  So there’s that… right? 

R.I.P. Uncle Benny (who is totally not a figment of Tony’s imagination).

In this week’s episode, we deal with British people’s obssession with American people’s obssession with British people!

This week is all over the place!  We’ve got discussion of art, reviews of four, yes FOUR different movies, some old standup comedy schlock, and an actual discussion of sex that lasts for, like, four whole minutes before William blushes hard enough for his head to explode!
