## Quotes and Taglines:

* \* "It's the respite. We're here at 6 a.m. for our respite and you guys are too, apparently. I wonder how many of those people on the head count are awake right now? I'm guessing not a whole lot. …
* "We (also) want to raise money for your local food bank, so that opening segment notwithstanding, if you enjoy the show and you have the means, you can support your local food bank, local food pantry, FeedingAmerica.org. Even if you don't like the show, even if you watched that opening segment and you were like, 'What the ever-living F is wrong with Josh?'"
* Conversation:
	+ **Josh (to Mary):** Oh, hi.
	+ **Mary (extending mug toward screen):** Aw, I'm a little late on the coffee, but hi guys, I brought you coffee. It's just plain coffee, but it's still pretty good.
* Conversation:
	+ **Mary:** Hey Josh, I have a couple of questions that I kind of feel strangely obligated to ask you. First question is do you want help with the show this morning? Do you want me to stay or…
	+ **Josh:** Umm, sure, yeah. You're always welcome to stick around. If you want to 'produce,' you can do that, I guess.
	+ **Mary:** Got it. Next question: Are we taking requests today?
	+ **Josh:** I haven't thought that far ahead. I mean, I guess if you see any good ones…
	+ **Mary:** Oh wait, I have another question: By 'good ones' do you mean 'not bad ones,' which is three words long?
	+ **Josh:** Yeah, that's exactly what I mean.
	+ **Mary:** Boom!
	+ **Josh:** I feel like we've been doing this show together for so long, you know my shorthand. Like, you can almost read my thoughts.
	+ **Mary:** One more question: Is this a 30-minute show?
	+ **Josh (pause):** Well, of course it is. It's always a 30-minute show.
	+ **Mary:** Got it, thanks.
	+ **Josh:** But you asked that as if you knew that I was literally just about to say it…
	+ **Mary:** I kind of have a vision, like a déja vu maybe kind of thing, (of) what was going to happen.
	+ **Josh:** But like before it happens?
	+ **Mary:** Before it happened, like I thought it was gonna happen.
* Conversation:
	+ **Josh:** Thirty-minute show…
	+ **Mary:** Thirty-minute show…candle, heart, we love you.
	+ **Josh:** Oh right, I gotta say the things.
* Conversation:
	+ **Josh:** Mary, um, did you hit the stop button?
	+ **Mary:** No!
	+ **Josh:** You didn't?
	+ **Mary:** That's so fun, Josh! That's so fun.
	+ **Josh:** You realize the show is still going. The 30-minute show is still going and it's 6:31…
	+ **Mary:** And who's still here? Ooh, 43 people are still here. Guys, it's our show. It's our show; we can do anything we want with it.
	+ **Josh:** Wait, are you saying it's not a 30-minute show?
	+ **Mary:** I don't think it has to be a 30-minute show.
	+ **Josh:** Are you saying after 10 and a half months of doing this show and committing every single episode to it strictly being a 30-minute show, that it…
	+ **Mary:** That's right, and it's on the Web site that (it) says it's a 30-minute show. it was like our commitment at the beginning of like, when we negotiated what we were gonna do, we just said, 'OK, we're gonna do this if it's a 30-minute show.' But Josh, I don't think time gets to control us like that; I think we get to make the decision.
* "I'm still kind of stunned by this whole, like, 'We can do what we want' thing. Like maybe this should be a six-hour show regularly from now on. We start it at 6 a.m., we go till noon, then we time travel back an hour so that you can go to Fenway and do your walk. And then we do a six-hour show tomorrow, but we don't start at 6 a.m. because it's Sunday and I get to sleep in. … And then the next day we do a six-hour show. And the next day we do…eh, six-ish. Maybe anywhere from five-and-a-half to six-and-a-half, basically, at that point…"
* "Oh, the things you didn't miss!" (to very late-arriving viewer)
