So I finally started listening to the Savage Love podcast at work, but it's a little bit difficult to have the right perspective on it. Not because of the content or the workplace environment, but because the theme song keeps reminding me of The Altered State Of Druggachusetts from Mr Show, itself a loose parody of H.R. Pufnstuf, which I still can't believe actually made it to children's TV.
While I feel I'm missing a little bit of the serious tone the show sometimes has, it's just too damn much fun to put on my absurdist hat and imagine Dan Savage being none other than Bob Odenkirk deep in character (he's "Jonesy" in the vid). It could also be that I really wish the Odenkirks would come up with something better than Tom Goes To The Mayor and Kung Pow... my wishful thinking wanders off...
...sigh, I can't help myself, so here's a favorite Mr. Show sketch: GloboChem, with Pit-Pat: a magical, pan-sexual, non-threatening spokes-thing! Bonus! It was for charity!
