I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

It’s a great one, but Lydia lunch is annoying. Kind of wish he just hung out with John Lurie for the entire episode
Oh yeah she was awful. But the way he kept asking if it had all been worth it just gutted me. And the John Lurie interview was great.

I watched the New Jersey episode recently. As much as i don’t like any time I’ve spent in that state, that episode is one of my favorites.

That's actually one of my favorite episodes, but admittedly I feel that way solely for the montage of Lanegan tunes and interview at the end of the episode. The live rendition of Strange Religion was especially amazing.
