I should have taken a screenshot so I could rub it in your face, Ben! Also you might want to take a look at the PDFs. :)

Marina, I love you, but I’m not showing you my vagina.

I love the talk about drunken sluts and marines. I’ve had a stern policy regarding Marines for some time now: Fuck ‘em, they get laid too much. I’ll explain. While I respect the military and the horrendous jobs they often have to do, I don’t want to hear any whining from those that are home with all their limbs.

This policy also applies to firemen and Australians.

As for “who” vs. “whom.”

It’s all about subject vs. object. If the person you’re talking about is doing something you use “who,” or if they’re the object of the sentence you use “whom.”

So it would be “Whom do you love?” and “Who loves you?”

That’s still kinda abstract, I know, but there’s a bit of a trick.

In the sentence you’re writing replace “who/whom” with “he/him.” If you’d use “he” then use “who,” if you’d use “him” use “whom.”

Hope that helps!

This is my 1st time listening to your show. Starting with comments is cool I guess if someone is a regular listen but for someone who is new – such as me – its lame. I’m rapidly losing interest. *yawn*

My word! Such vitriol from such an esteemed member of the medical profession! I don’t know how you look your patients in the eye using language like that, ‘Doctor’ Boyfriend if that is you real name!!!1 (joke)

What do you mean "the code is fucked up"? There is absolutely nothing wrong with it now, nor was there EVER anything wrong with it. Like Athena from Zeus's head, the code of this website has sprung forth from me fully-formed and perfect, and I resent your accusations. You, madam, are a liar, and I humbly submit that your pants are also on fire.

Hey Marina, the code on your women in podcasting page is fucked up, just in case you don’t know.

Marina, I am shocked and appalled! DADT isn’t about protecting GBLT servicemen–arguably it puts them in more danger since if you’re getting harassed for being gay you can’t report anyone since you’ll be discharged. It’s like saying we shouldn’t have let women into the military since a bunch of them have been raped and harassed–it doesn’t actually solve the underlying problem. Being closeted (in the military or otherwise) as a personal choice to protect oneself is one thing; DADT as a military policy that punishes queers is another.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPsQFC5xXR8 : Lupe Fiasco. He’s a hip hop artist from Chicago, he’s amazing, and he’s collaborated with people like Jay-Z, Kanye, and Snoop. I can upload some stuff for you if you like him, since you’re having a hard time finding hip-hop you both like.

Note to self: you stopped listening at 25 min.

Great show, it’s good that you guys thrash out your issues.

Any special plans for show number 200?
