	All of my friends went to see Billy Joel at the Hollywood Bowl. They were all really excited about it. I know these are people who are smart enough to know that Billy Joel is not cool. They are also smart enough to say, “It’s cool that he’s not cool.” But ultimately all you are saying is "I like it." Do you know why? Because I know it. I grew up listening to it. This reminds me of a time I didn’t know it was bad or I didn’t care it wasn’t cool. I thought it was good. I didn’t know it was supposed to be bad. We all want things to be easier as we get older. I don’t have any problem with that. Billy Joel is not cool. Is it ok not to be cool? I guess. Is it ok to pretend you’re cool doing something you know is not cool? I don’t know, maybe. Maybe it’s better just to be honest and to say I’m tired. I don’t feel like finding out about what the Sleighbells are doing. I don’t like that band, Sleighbells. I saw them on Saturday Night Live. I didn’t care for them. I thought that girl was very pretty. I thought, ooh, I wish I could wear that! Sigh, Billy Joel, what a mess. What a messy man.

	Ryan 'Hotlips' Houlihan wants me to make sure you all know that he does not write Howwasyourwiki. He complained to me recently that a few people had approached him and complimented him on the writing of Howwasyourwiki and that is not what he does. Howwasyourwiki is a community created and maintained website. I have never written a thing on it. I don’t think Hotlips has either. It is maintained by the community who listens to this podcast including yourself. That has been established. While I’m ~~add~~ it why not go to Howwasyourwiki.com and add some things and make it a great place? It’s my favorite website. It really is.

	I got a kneeling chair for my back and neck. I’m meant to kneel in the front. I guess your knees are supposed to be lower than your hips. And there’s also a backrest on it. I’m getting older. Do you know what? There are worse things. What people mean by that when they say it is the alternative is worse, and what that means is I could be dead. To me, the alternative to getting older is staying the same or getting younger. Both of those things are so terrible. If I woke up and I was 23 again there is no amount of over eating I would be able to do to feel better. There isn’t. Don’t get me wrong, I would try.		I got a kneeling chair for my back and neck.

	But it’s worse! It’s R Kelly wearing a black doctor’s outfit. Gone are the days when (this is the ‘I love the 90s’ edition of this podcast) the 90s version of rock videos were let’s give John Flansburgh a chance to direct this one. Cool sounds fun. Who directed this one? It was going to be Matt Mahurin.		But it’s worse! It’s R Kelly wearing a black doctor’s outfit.

	So R Kelly is wearing a black doctor’s uniform. His mask has been bedazzled. Lady Gaga is under a white sheet. She’s in the nude. He’s about to put her under. He says, “It’ll take a minute for the medicine to start working. You’ll go under and when you wake up you are going to be pregnant.” It is the most horrible thing in the world. Why would they have ever? Huh? What were they thinking? My audition for the TMZ bullpen, I think went well, but I have not heard anything about a call back. What were they thinking right? I did that 4-5 times and then I left. I took a ~~Nutra~~-grain bar on the way out—apple cinnamon.		So R Kelly is wearing a black doctor’s uniform. His mask has been bedazzled.

	Ladies and gentlemen I am going to introduce the show so I can go grocery shopping. Maybe I’ll get a nice pineapple for the apartment. Maybe I’ll just do one of those things where I just walk around and don’t do anything else. Do you know why? I’m trying to take it easy before my shows. I’m trying to be a like a diva a little and also because I am unemployed. Therefore I am going to introduce the show so that I can get to doing nothing. We have a gems episode for you this week. We have three gems that are previously unreleased things from past episode that we have not published from guests that we love.

	The first gem is with the great Merrill Markoe. When we spoke a couple of months ago we discussed her writing process. I think she’s fabulous and it’s an interesting tidbit we didn’t have time for in the episode so enjoy this gem with Merrill Markoe.		The first gem is with the great Merrill Markoe.

Happy Pride!

This week's show is a HIDDEN GEMS medley of delights, featuring never-before-heard tidbit/morsels of chats with MERRILL MARKOE, ANDY KINDLER and BRIAN STACK!

Enjoy those gems, pals! And also, relish some brand new observations about why leather harnesses are the best possible things for society, the luxury of being an aging person over irony who just wants to listen to terrible music, a story about a wonderful insane older gal who screamed things about Bush and Cheney at my show, Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina Jolie's insane sex, and why David Bryne's hair just screams to have red wine spilled on it.
