Joe and the Guy with the Hat#1 Paranoiac Critical Solitude - Long Time Penis, First Time CallerChay and Joe are back from their year away! And with a new show: Paranoiac Critical Solitude!
We give a history of the show so far and get so many calls and play such great music. Best of all we figure out how to take on-air calls!
Callers include Sky (the future lawyer) who argues that it is because Chay and Joe are men that they like to hear themselves speak, Amanda and her shoes, and Ethan who shares a story about his encounter with Tony Bennet in a men's room.
