Now I really want to watch "Turtles go West." Also, I will pay good money for a picture of Walter Cronkite in a chicken hat.

I have no idea if you're serious or not, Teebeeohh, but if so it sounds like you and Cokeordie have some things to talk about to solve this problem.teebeeohh said:
Just an update on the cleaning-lady-who-stole-a-train story. It turns that she didn't steal the train, during the investigation it was found that there were some serious lack of security (such as a broken dead man's switch) that caused the train to go of the tracks and into the house.
I feel like there's an episode of QI where they talked about how it was impossible to tell the sex of a lobster. But it might have been age. Or maybe something else dammit I forget. Anyways great episode, great outro Graham.
I love how you went from adorable, Disney-esque anthropomorphic animals, then cut straight to "Heads. HUMAN HEADS."
Graham, I'm not sure why, but your "serious news" voice gave me a Friendly Giant flashback. As in that really old kids' show on CBC. You should do that voice again next week, find a giraffe hat, and say something like "Well, I've got to go let the drawbridge down, so until next week remember: there may be better sources for news, but they don't have this hat."
It would have been funny in the end if Graham does that whole serious ending with hat, pauses for a sec, and then eats a triscuit. I was waiting for him to do that because they referenced them throughout the show.
As someone who works in the lobster industry, I'd like to explain the tail notch. Its not that its illegal to take female lobsters, in fact my company has customers who will only ordered females but it is illegal to take eggers (female lobsters who are ready to lay eggs, which you can tell because the underside of the tail will be covered with eggs). When a fisherman catches an egger, their suppose to cut a notch in the shape of a V in the tail and throw it back. The notch tells anyone else who catches that lobster, that she's a breeder and that she gets a free pass until she molts.Graham_LRR said:
Of course there are those, when they catch eggers, scrap the eggs off with a brush, which is illegal and makes them scumbags.
That cleaning lady now got a job as a traindriver at SJ, they are very happy.
