Completely Conspicuous Episode 27: Spreading the Disease

Check it: I actually recorded another episode of CC before another three weeks went by. It was only eight days between shows this time. I tried something different this time around, essentially working without a script. Just took me too long to actually write the whole thing out. It wasn't a total train wreck, IMHO. I'll get better at this, honest. You can download it here (right click and "save as").

Topics:
- The threat of infectious disease
- Campaign theme songs
- Doc Martens commissions a lame ad campaign
- The scourge of American Idol
