Kudos on an original idea. I didn't notice it being "cliched" as I listened, but maybe I would have noticed if I had read it. I liked the voice actor as well, especially his disdain for Mutt was very well acted.</p> This was a weird one. Kudos on an original idea.

I can see what the writer was going for, but it same out unfortunately gynophobic.

What I am curious about was the feedthepod seg at the end with the ‘How much do you weigh now Caroline’ bit. Could someone enlighten me what the heck that was about. It really freaked me out!
