There is a regular music videocast up that is sponsored by ULINE and they do product placement every episode.

Yes- relate to Uline Catalog! I guess I\'m a fan of design, solutions, organization and using things for un-intended purposes. Have to move out of Queens apt. and had just put the Catalog on dump pile-just have to part with it- for now. Grateful, Marc, to have found podcast after looking you up on you-tube. Really relate to your Queens/Metro issues and the personal observations of daily existence. Thanks for sharing the rants too.

Marc, Whoaaaa. the Uline rant was completely hysterical and cathartic. I totally relate and understand myself a little better. Thanks. Do you validate parking? Keep up the great work.

If you want the pen-ultimate fantasy catalog you HAVE TO have get the printed Cole Parmer catalog, it comes in three shipments, the final one being a catalog that weighs at least 5 lbs abd is TWO and a HALF Füçking inches thick!

And it\'s all scientific supplies that totally make me want to be some sort of mad scientist.

Best.Free Catalog.Ever.

I relate to your shit way more than I would like to admit. Love the honesty and the way that you interview / talk to people. This was another solid episode. Got turned on to you when you did TBTL with that Burbank guy a while back. Really appreciate all the work you put into the podcast,I\'m totally fucking hooked. Good work mi amigo. Muy bueno y loco.

That was such a great show and interview.

Things I learned:

ULINE, Tim and Eric, and Nothing, not kids, money, accolades or even sex can make you happy in the long run, except yourself.

OM,

Thanks again for a great podcast. I learn something new each time I listen. I added both Mr. Show and Breaking Bad to my netflix queue.

Your musings on catalog shopping were hilarious. I also order stuff from the L.L.Bean catalog and Lands End. Why? Who knows. It is the anti-cool, but it\'s really well made stuff and it\'s classic. Sometimes if you can\'t be cool go with classic. I don\'t even bother to try anymore with the cool. After all, a broken clock is at least right twice a day, but if you\'re trying too hard to keep up or be ahead of the cool curve, you just never get it right. The trouble is, lately I\'ve been feeling the perverse urge to branch into really unacceptable purposely ugly matronly old lady clothes from some of these catalogs my grandma used to get. Wonder what that\'s about?

Anyhow, I share your obsession with the ULINE catalog, and I think you\'ve got something there about the draw being smoething about the fantasy of total organization.

I have to disagree with your assessment of the pump soap, though. I find the convenience of the prelathered soap to be awesome. I even buy the foamy dish soap. It\'s nice to remove friction where I can in life.

A male friend of mine wisecracked that it that foamy soap had been around when he and his brothers were growing up, it\'d have been impossible to get them out of the bathroom. Other guys I know have tested this premise in the shower with mixed results. Just sayin.
