Episode 964

Happy Birthday to Joe
Today is the birthday of DrMom's son, Joe.  Leo forgot to mention it during the recording of the show, but he made it up in the intro.  Happy Birthday to Joe.

MAD DISCO
Unearthed from the depths of Dick's Gadget Warehouse is another gem - a special edition of MAD, called MAD DISCO, that comes with a vinyl record of spoofs of disco hits such as "Barely Alive" and "Disco Suicide", with lyrics by Dick and music by Norm Blagman.  The record also includes a disco version of the MAD classic hit "It's A Gas".  Disco was and remains Dick’s favourite genre, and the idea of MAD DISCO was conceived by Dick himself. You can buy a copy (or at least read about it) here on Dick’s site, at MAD Collectables.

The Pains of a Listener
Steve Miller, one of the foremost gadget fanatics among the listeners, thinks that it was great to have Alex Lindsay stand in for Leo, but it came at a price.  It is bad enough for Steve to buy the $20-$100 gadgets that Dick talks about (including most recently the Verbatim Insight in Episode 929), but the Gigapan Epic which Alex recommended and Steve felt compelled to buy cost a lot more!
