Hyper Nonsense: More Morris; too much Harry

Hyper Nonsense PodcastHyper Nonsense, Episode 78

Date: July 20, 2007.

Full episode: HN 078 — Pleased and appreciated

Summary: Harry Potter’s just about everywhere this week. Do we need Harry Potter at the grocery store?

I walk into Albertsons to buy a package of chicken breasts, and a wizard hands me a cheap green photocopied flier promoting the new Harry Potter book.

As I move through the aisles, squeezing cherries, thumping cantaloupes, tearing open bags of cookies and kneading mounds of raw hamburger, a woman’s voice hustles the new Harry Potter book over the store intercom.

Harry Potter and the Deadly Cupcakes

“Be here at 12:01 a.m. to get the new Harry Potter book,” she exhorts in a tone more suited to seafood specials and two-for-one cupcakes. “It’s the laaay-est one! Don’t be the laaay-est person to get the laaay-est Harry Potter book!”

Moaning Myrtle

Myrtle

Similarly, Hyper Nonsense co-host (with husband Shawno) Jen works herself into a nearly hysterical Potter-esque fit as she previews the whiny Moaning Myrtle character she will be required to portray, promptly at 12:01 a.m., at her work. Jen works at a bookstore.

“And no one’s here to see Myrtle! It’s all for Henry!” Jen moans.

I know, Jen. I know, overenthusiastic intercom lady at the Albertsons. Jobs are hard to come by these days, and few of us can afford to defy the boss — let alone Harry Potter mania.

Hyper Nonsense closes with my popular song, The Ballad Of Morris The Cat.

Be good to your cats, your baby seals and your polar bears  (0:40).

    Jen says:

    I’m sick of people looking at it all as “me and mine” and not as “us and we,” ’cause we’re all one. Ya know?

    A spirited discussion ensues at .

    We’re still the Podcast Roundup Whores, Ken.

    Hells, yeah. (Even though I think you’ve written about other podcasts way more than us by now.)
