Jarret: Hey dudes, youre logging on for the first time. My names Jarret, Ive been a junior here for the past two years at Hampshire College, or as I like to call it, Hempshire College. I live on the third floor at Lima Hall on a schweet three man overlooking the quad, and I do this webcast 24-7, 365. The only time you dont get to see me is when I come out of the shower, and the other day when I saw the movie Stepmom and started to cry. My first guest today is my good bud. I met him four years ago when he was a sophomore, and hes still a sophomore. I think hes like 35 or something. Please welcome, my roommate and my homie, Gobi.
[Gobi enters, wearing a ‘Funkin Gonuts’ t-shirt]
Gobi: Attention Earthlings! Take me to your dealer! [laughing] Wassup bro-bro! Hey Jarret man, is it true? Did Phish break up?
Jarret: Dude, youve asked me that question every day for the past month. I told you theyre just not gonna tour for a while.
Gobi: Oh, man, I cant believe it. Hey man, check out my new t-shirt! Funkin Gonuts! [laughs] You get it?
Jarret: Yeah, I get it.
Gobi: Naw, I dont think you get it. Funkin Go Nuts!
Jarret: Yeah, yeah, Dunkin Donuts, Funkin Gonuts, I get it.
Gobi: [amazed] Dunkin Donuts [laughs] That works on two levels!
[Jarret brings out a bandana and a package of M&Ms]
Jarret: Anyway, Gobis here to teach us how to make a hacky sack out of a bandanna and some M&Ms. [pause] Dude, are you burnt right now?
Gobi: No yes. [laughs and starts eating the M&Ms]
Jarret: Youre totally burnt! You havent left your room in a week! Youre not gonna show us how to make a hacky sack, huh?
Gobi: No! Dude, can I crash here?
Jarret: Yeah, go ahead, I dont care.
Gobi: [sits down] Oh, man, Imma lay down. [singing] Its time to go on with the show!
Jarret: Anyway, that was my roommate, Gobi. Now is the time for my favorite part of the show, its what I like to call What Jarrets Into This Week This week Im all about the Midnight Tokers, theyre this Steve Miller cover band. Last week Gobi and I camped out for tickets. Check out these pictures, dudes. [types on keyboard]

Jarret: Anyway, it was corduroy. My next guest was my RA last year. Shes my girl this year. She busted me for cooking Triscuit pizzas on my halogen lamp. She was kind of mad at first, but then we spent a romantic evening together, watching Deuce Bigalow and doing a shot of beer every minute for a hundred minutes. After that, we totally hooked up, and then we vomited, and then we hooked up again, and then we vomited. Please welcome my girl, Jenna.
