Quote of the week: "The joke is fiiiiiine." Producer: Colonel Jeff Fox Audio Engineer: Dr. Chris Laxamana

Hear how Larry's so-called manners lost him an agent. What goes best with KFC, The Maltese Falcon and a six-pack of beer? Nothing! Or should we say nobody. A listener asks if Larry wears a suit and tie when recording the podcast? Um, sure! The sweatpants and moccasins are just for the photo. What is he, Mr. Goodwrench? Quote of the week: "Look, Mr. Stupid." Producer: Colonel Jeff Fox Audio Engineer: Dr. Chris Laxamana
