And together, we discussed Daryl Somers, Harry Connick Jr, and Jon Stewart for a wee bit. Here’s a transcript. More »

I noticed they’d covered Pictures Of You by The Cure and eagerly sat down to watch. And as I watched their beautiful faces as they sang their little hearts out, I began crying tears of joy. I’m not kidding – it turns out my heart is not actually made of stone, despite what Short Stack fans might tell you. More »
