Pod-u-like.

Another week, another webisode of Angry and Cliff, those two jokers extraordinaire. I do hate internet words you know – webisode? Pish, I have bile seeping over my chin. Anyway – AngrynCliffthePodcast is being recorded as I type – I didn’t quite catch the whole of the live video stream as I was watching excellent semi-French film Ronin, but you can watch it each Tuesday evening at www.tinyurl.com/angryandcliffvideo - and if you can’t watch it then you have no excuse but to listen to the finished product at Cliff’s or Angry’s.

So tonight I got to phone in my dubious contribution to this pantheon of greatness and score points by trading on the previous weeks’ threequarter-truths... I talked about Wayne’s World and sliced bread mostly. Did you know that Wayne’s World was filmed in a month and grossed over $100m in cinemas worldwide? Did you know that the term ‘best thing since sliced bread’ started as what was essentially a sarcastic pejorative? The people who first sold it nationwide in the US went so far over the top extolling its virtues that sliced bread was clearly the best thing ever in the history of the world.

I also found out this week that California was part of Mexico for thirty years – who knew? It’s only been part of the USA for 150 years – I’ve had poos that lasted longer than that.
