Links and Show Notes:

Things kick off with some initial concerns, and then Merlin shares why so many things are kind of like a television.

In Follow-Up, John has confused his retired newscasters, and Merlin still hasn't figured why he was so disoriented by a strange oven. Werner Herzog cameos are considered.

Next, Merlin has a confession that reflects the logical conclusion of realizing you can always augment the sub-standard materials supplied by a host.

Painful rituals of car seats and Catholicism are considered, and John indulges Merlin's retrospective look at 15th century gift cards for sin.

John thinks Merlin drinks too much water, which naturally leads to a deep dive on the landscape of consumer ice machines.
