The Sink #81 - I Have a Feeling Liz Knows How to Handle Herself

Welcome to The Sink #81! We recorded a day earlier than we originally planned, so apologies to those of you who didn't get a chance to submit an email. (We're staring longingly through our telescope at you, Dr. Andrei!) We'll be recording our next episode some time over Labor Day weekend (if we can swing it, we'll be joined by special guests Jessifer and Patrick), so be sure to get your carefully crafted missives in by Friday, September 3.

There be SPOILERS for this week's "Project Runway" and le grande finale of "The Hills." Isn't this crazy how all this is happening while Lauren is gone?

Props! Eternal and continued thanks to Steven Gullett for the use of his beloved song, "Lovers and Clowns," which I like to think will one day appear on a compilation of his work as "Lovers and Clowns (Theme from The Sink)."

Don't miss! A musical shout-out to Jared before the outtakes at the tail end of the podcast.

Technical note: Although our volume levels are much more consistent this episode, there are some occasional issues with Carrie's microphone that we didn't really notice until we were editing. On the other hand, that very occasional crackling you hear is Jared's beard rubbing against his headset. We'll force him to shave before the next episode or something.
