Listener comments!

  Tue. 11/8/11 7:04pm BSI:

Holy crap! I must be working late. I'm catching this live... I may swoon!
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:10pm Snortley:

Yes, the German is "sandwich," but the d is pronounced t and the emphasis is on the second syllable.
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:10pm disastrogirl:

The Japanese call it sandwich too. They pronounce it like sahn wishio.
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:10pm Listener John from NJ who lives in NJ:

The native speaker at my house says that "butterbrot" is also a name in German for a "sandwich" -- at least for a cold open-faced sandwich . . .
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:11pm BSI:

Long live the fattened north-English butty!
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:12pm Barry:

We need the announcment system solid, people, so if I am forced to postpone the election next year due to a huge national security emergency because I'm just too far behind in the polls, I can get everyone's attention in a really impressive way.

Can you say "leadership"? I knew you could.
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:14pm pgw in mntclr:

"Barry" = Ron Paul
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:18pm Ralphine:

Ron Paul = Ralph Nader

Ralph Nader = George Bush. "Miss me yet?"
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:22pm BSI:

Have an absinthe.... Get all Alfred Jarry up in the joint, 'n sheeit.
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:22pm Alfred:

Merdre!!!
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:24pm pgw in mntclr:

actually, i do miss having an Emergency Broadcast System that could be stymied by a children's book about a goat.
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:28pm Frank in New York:

Peacocks are loud! I can't imagine how you could hide them.
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:44pm pgw in mntclr:

  Tue. 11/8/11 7:46pm Colin from Vancouver British Columbia Canada:

Larry David and Andy Rooney were comedians. Sorry you don't get it!

Comedy class is hard!
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:53pm Colin from Vancouver British Columbia Canada:

Those eyebrows were total panty droppers.
  Tue. 11/8/11 7:55pm Ralphine:
