That's the B2, but yes, it does. He talks about pipes & steel girders running along the underside though... plus hovering like 50 feet off the ground.

I heard that tasty Canadian & July 1st shout out at the top of the show. Dark Weekend cares! :')

Why can't Canada and the USA get together sometime in between the 1st and the 4th and have a combined party?

Incognito mode? IT'S A TRAP!!! I think your suspicions are right.

No audit at the department of defense? Well, has their twitter been audited at least?

Did somebody say UNDERWATER BASE?

dude, way to pick it up man!! i caught the tail end ... sort of.  Ended up on the phone a bit but THEN I'm like "I wonder if the shits up on soundclou-"

YAY!

just what i needed to get my mind off things!

[popple]

PS: Lemme just ❤ this show right away! 

PPS: On the combined party idea... we can alternate hosting? One year we can have it down there and then the next you all can come up here. Or maybe we can always just go to your place cause I'm pretty sure you all will break our stuff and not use the recycling bins properly if at all

[Heather Wade]

I enjoyed your show, bateman.  One of my favorite topics.

[ziznak]

yeah it was yet another good topic and as always well produced.  you keep making them and I will keep listening!

[jazmunda]

Another great show.

I think I've found the missing half of the Dream Team. Just out of interest how many fake twitters followers do you have?

Why would he want to work with Chuuch? Ohhhhhhhh....
Forget Twitter followers, does he know who played bass for Tangier on Four Winds?

Judging by the tourists I have to dodge, they seem to prefer IHOP as a meeting place.

I was referring to the Dreamteam of Bell and Bateman. The Master and Bater.

I would go with Bateman and Sour Shoes.

[jazmunda]

I would go with Bateman and Sour Shoes.

I'm positive Sour Shoes could do an excellent Art Bell impression.

He could probably hold it together about as long as Art could, too.

Yes, I giggled when Schratt said Skunk Works.

I was hoping he would be a shitty guest just to keep the scat theme going but, alas, he was not.

[Bart Ell]

Who would win in a fight - J.P.Mucklestone or Tommy John?

[Ms. C]

Great show!  Thanks.

[Tarbaby]

Yes, I agree with everyone so far. Good show! I thought it might be a topic that was too dry for me but no, it was very interesting. What I mean is if a guest just starts rattling off unfamiliar acronyms and aircraft numbers and part numbers my eyes glaze over usually but this was more.

[wr250]

Great show!  Thanks.

ive listened to it like 5 times lol.

[bateman]

I add the sauce.

tommy danheisher would simply fall on both of them and crush them to death. meanwhile snooron will assault their ears with his mushiness and stupid questions (do you see angels? how about a portal?)

[jazmunda]

reported

[Tarbaby]

ive listened to it like 5 times lol.

ewwww…. :-)

But yes, I was going to add that, that the guest  might have been exceptional or that you might have been the extra CataList, Or that thse combination really work.

[Spinner]

Ditto. I found it more interesting than the show about the SR-71

[Spinner]

ive listened to it like 5 times lol.

You win. I've only listened to it twice, but I'll probably listen to it again in the future.

[Heather Wade]

I add the sauce.

Top secret sauce.
