Episode twelve of Couch Surfing brings you mostly bad news,
unfortunately. First off, John and Scott are without new iTunes
reviews or e-mail. Secondly, they both lost two and a half hours of
their lives, thanks to Richard Kelly's Southland Tales. If that's
not enough, the dreaded Knight Rider revamp has been picked up for
a series. In lighter news, Scott finds Horton Hears A Who to be
quite endearing, and he's oddly excited about the new X-Files
movie. John rediscovers the rewarding value of patience after
watching Wristcutters: A Love Story, but warns listeners to proceed
with caution when considering the very well made, but dark and
disturbing Gregg Araki film, Mysterious Skin (Correction: The book
that inspired the movie was written by Scott Heim). Finally, the
guys contemplate a world without Superman. Scott decides to take an
indefinite break from Couch Surfing, to focus on his many other
projects. This leaves John without a co-host. If anyone wishes to
fill in as a temporary replacement, please send an e-mail.
