PODCAST: Do It Rockapella!: Gregg Gethard on "Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego?"

Just listened to the podcast on the way to work. Excellent work. I think you need to meet up with this guy and see where he is now.
I think I heard you were going to do that at some point. It would be classic. Because you know he's still a complete douche.

I imagine him working in finance in Manhattan. He lived in Hoboken for a few years with some of his fraternity brothers, but now his parents helped him finance a condo in Manhattan. He smokes cigars on Thursday nights with his buddies, enjoys wearing shirts with big collars and talks on his bluetooth on the treadmill. He has a fiance and a girlfriend, but always wondered what it would be like to be in the arms of Kevin, his RA from sophomore year.

Oh, and he LOVES the show Mad Men.

I've actually been in touch w/ him via FaceBook. He does some think tank type work in DC and is an expert on Middle East affairs.

He had a great sense of humor about the whole thing. He seems like a REALLY nice guy. Honestly.

Gregg,

Imagine if Harry Truman had facebook. He might have been sending flare to people in Nagasaki instead of doing what needed to be done. Then where would we be?

So get in your tank and think about that.

No mercy, Gregg. No mercy.

Dude, I found this video on Youtube while searching for Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego clips, and tracked back to the podcast through the link in the info section on Youtube.

This shit was absolutely hilarious. You've gotta make it easier for people to find! Right now the link on Youtube is to the comicvsaudience main page -- put a dedicated link directly to the podcast!

Awesome work.
