The segment with my sister was recorded "live" in my home using a portable recorder.  We adlibbed the entire visit, wandering around various rooms.  Because of this, you'll hear my pet birds and our psycho cat...and how we worked them into the visit.  By listening to my sister and me interacting, you'll get an idea of how my life was while growing up with her.  Now, if only I could get my brother here at the same time... THAT would be a show!

<![CDATA[Bell's in the Batfry Between the Podcast Podcast after Episode 72]]>  

This show contains the UNEDITED lines that Miss Shmacklehiemer sent me for the big finish of episode 72!

I also explain to those confused by the events of the last two shows why they shouldn't be confused...because confused was the intent, so if you're confused, you're not confused because...um... you shouldn't confuse confusion with being confused... ahhh... about....  confusion....

Oh, just listen.
