got a little story to you, you know, for 33 years, a rodeo. And in 1962, a little boy was born in his dream and his goal was to hold a monkey.

Well, we've all got dreams and just a few of them, I think, are actually going to come true today, right here, right now on this Thursday afternoon edition of TVTL Spock sabotage the system.

This show that is probably too beautiful to live. My name is Luke Burbank, I'm your host, this episode 800 in a collector series. Not that we're keeping track.

Oh, you know what? Actually, we do keep track carefully and every day. Another thing that we keep track of is our weight. Well, I say hour, but now it's down to just me, the only one who does it, but that's all right.

I do it because you're interested. And today, my weight is 181 pounds, which is a nice thing. Here on this 800 episode, we've got all kinds of stuff to talk about.

Hi, this is Luke, Mom, Susie, coming tonight on TVTL.

Lady Gaga and Weird Al Yankovic got into a bit of a tussle and it was proof once and for all a thing that we've said on this show for months now.

And we've thought it in our hearts for years, handlers, the people in the periphery of famous people are the worst. We'll get into that.

So we've got some really, really bad news for TVTL concerning the Pulitzer's.

I know you guys have all been on pins and needles about whether or not we were going to get our Pulitzer this year.

It's become increasingly less likely thanks to a technological advance will get into that.

And then is vomiting and water fountains? Is that okay? One of our listeners has taken an incredibly scientific approach to this whole thing and answers the question I would say once and for all.

I love Jesus, but I drink a little.

She certainly does and she's the long time producer of the program and she is in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Her name is Jen Andrews. Hi, Jen.

Hi, Luke.

Has everything going out there in Fort Wayne?

It's going all right. As I told you before the show, standing is tiring.

As my sadistic trainer would say to me, Jen, empty out the tank. This is time.

This is this is time to really blast your standing parts.

My my mom has back pain. She's actually had back back surgery before. She has a lot of like chronic back pain.

And so oftentimes she'll spend like an entire family event standing up and sort of just rocking back and forth from like, you know, foot to foot.

Yeah.
