[Buttercup]

Ohhh! So Ian got to be the big man in charge, did he? This will be good...

[John]

Yep - be sure to listen all the way to the end for the opening outtake....

[Melanie]

Outtakes?

[Ian]

You know what's really funny about this? I actually used to do TV play-by-play and color commentary for sports waaaaaaaaaaaay back in my high school days, so it's not like I've never been in front of a mic. But for whatever reason, I was just awful doing this! I couldn't get a rhythm going, I was stumbling over my words ... HORRID!

I was so bad I was even laughing at myself!

So let the mocking begin ... I earned it. I can take it!

[Carol]

So let the mocking begin ...

Boom goes the dynamite!

Also, I'm hoping to get some support from the audience this time. I was mocked for Doctor Who by my cohosts because I bought Jammie Dodgers and a Fez. Oh the uninitiated fools.

[BriarRose0708]

Awesome PodCast again! Woo hoo, we have dates!!!!!!!!!

[buzznwoodysmom]

Awww, looks like we won't be able to LMNOP! My kids get a fall break, but it looks like their break will be Oct. 20th -23rd. Our plan is to go to WDW for MNSSHP and F&WF during their break next year. We were hoping to be there at the same time as LMNOP. We'll miss you guys by one week. Booo!

I can only assume your maiden name didn't end with a vowel.

LOL

No one here calls it gravy, and I grew up in a VERY Italian area. We were the only non-Italian for blocks.

The only ones around here who say gravy is Jersey people, we laugh at them.

Gravy is what you make from meat drippings with flour. Sauce is made with tomatoes.

Marinara Sauce
Arrabbiata Sauce (really spicey)
Bolognese Sauce (meat)
Vodka Sauce
Puttanesca sauce
Carbonara Sauce (which is not supposed to have cream in it)

[John]

Sorry Nanc :

Tartaglia is my mom's maiden name (you may know us from the Godfather) and it's always been called gravy. Just watch the Soprano's for validation - Tony calls it gravy there as well.

Gravy is also brown gravy - We use the term in both cases - and it can mean either.

Very italian family in Philly....

[Tink1]

We shall have to agree to disagree.

How about we all do an ABD to Italy and check this out?

Loved the Murray Head reference....

"Bangkok, Oriental setting
And the city don't know that the city is getting
The creme de la creme of the chess world in a
Show with everything but Yul Brynner"

Loved that tune when it was out...

[Ian]

In fairness to Nancy, I think it is an East Coast Italian thing, though.

In Italian, the word for "sauce" is "salsa" and the word for "gravy" is "sugo", so they definitely have distinctive words for each one and they mean different things.

[AgentC]

I am listening right now and really encourage everyone to go check out HotAladdin.com. Mel has good taste in sites.

Yay! We finally got someone who liked our Murray Head jokes.

[Buttercup]

I love Murray Head! My husband thinks I'm weird.

[MstngDrvnDsnyLvr]

So glad I wasn't the only one that got the Jammie Dodger/Fez reference.

Great Murray Head reference!

And as a southerner - Gravy can be brown, pepper, or red eyed. At no time does it involve tomatoes. That's Spaghetti Sauce.
