Podcast 63: Almost like a Filibuster

We had a lot of stuff to talk about this week that wasn't even related to the West Wing episodes. Many thanks to Listener Si for sending in some great stuff about British Politics. As an example, take a look at some of the great photos of the current Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, below. The TW5 intern also joined us for the second week in a row. We need a new guest so he will stop coming on (only kidding Aaron). We discuss episodes 17-20 of The West Wing, Season 2.

I can't tell if he is hitting on me or just pleased with what I am doing.

Extreme patriotism: saluting the flag on the bike you are riding.

Bored? No, I thought I was taking a bite of a sandwich
