Is the closing song some Brad Mehdulahlala? It almost sounds like Radiohead, but it was piano..so I deduced…
On a side note – I gotta thank you fellas. I recieved some really crappy news on Monday, and listening to the show today (Tuesday) gave me a brief repite from reality. Thanks.

That piano cover of Paranoid Android was so fucked up and beautiful, I was all crying and stuff. Why do you Grapes do this to me?
I love Jamie Oliver, and also gasduster. When my boss emailed that we had a new shipment of Gasduster for keyboards I went into his office and said “Who ya gonna call? Gasduster?” and he looked confused.
I love so much when you use Somebody’s Watching Me too. I liked this version. I like all the versions.
God bless the children, yeah!

Listener, thank you. You are like a giant bowl of reeses pieces.
Also, here’s a little-known Grapesecret, some might call it an “Easter egg”- if you ever want to know what the song at the end of a show is, you can click the “songs” tab at the top of the page. Don’t tell anybody.

Aaron-
Super impressed with your knowledge of the Turkish lira-so much more interesting then the Turkish poly sci class I took last term which made me want to ram my head against the wall…maybe wikipedia is better.

Thank you all so much for such lovely feedback.
On a personal note: this is a shitload of work to do every weekend, and this week was REALLY hard to trudge through for me. Hearing that a silly little show like this can actually help make people’s days even a little bit better is both flattering and fulfilling.
Thanks everyone for the comments, emails, tweets, texts, vms, and facebook shout-outs. They mean a TON, and really are the fuel that makes the show get better & better.
THANK YOU.
