Glad to hear KATG week went well, though. Can't wait for the next episode!

I couldn't make it through either, just a little too weird for me. I'm happy they found eachother though and make eachother happy.

What a weird fuckin' episode. I liked every minute of it, though. Where else are you gonna hear this crazy shit? Thought Chemda and Keith did a great job w/ the questions on this one. Seriously, what other podcast, radio show, TV SHOW, etc...could possibly handle this subject matter? I've heard some shit over the years on KatG, but this one was a precedent in WTF-kind of odd. I didn't even know thinking you're a dog...was even a...thing. Awesome. God, Buddha, and maybe even Mohammed bless 'em.
Also, I think Keith claiming his skill level at the beginning of show was spot on. As I went through last week, a broken KatG fan - not in NYC for KatG week. Not enjoying the festivities, I listened to Keith's album: 'Sue Everyone.' The intro is by comedian Jesse Joyce. Joyce brings Keith onto the stage by saying, "Here comes Keith, I don't know why he's so popular/ famous, nor do I even know how he can do stand-up as he IS NOT one. Hell fuck yeah, Keith should own his comedic skill. I can't wait to hear the album. He really is gifted. Those of you who collect comedy albums and listen to other podcasts know what I'm talking about.
Like this wasn't long enough: I think Chemda is amazing to produce all the KatG Week craziness every year. Hope she makes it happen in 2013...

I guess growing up in the SF bay area and understanding the Mission District for what it is you get jaded.

This is the first show ever i could not finish.
If there are people out there that make the world a better place.
I guess there has to be people that do the opposite.
I just don't know why KATG had to interview them!

While I get that we might be "gross" or "disgusting" how do we make the world worse?

How do they make the world a worse place? Not sure why people had to turn it off either. There are people out there fucking real animals....TJ & Ben's lifestyle seems mostly based on role play. What is the big deal?

These haters make me sad. I'll admit, I didn't really know how to respond when I found out Ben was one of the partners in the dog couple when we met this weekend but he turned out to be one of the most awesome people I met. I'm glad to call him a new friend. I honestly think it is people like Ben who do make this world a better place. I wish them tons of happiness.

I certainly don't share your "preferences," but I agree with Punk'n: Do you.

I mean, really, throw these guys a bone!

I don't think anyone's hating anyone here. Or, I hope that's not the case. They seem like a couple of total sweethearts. It's just this whole dog thing is a big pill to swallow. I get annoyed when 8-year-olds act like puppies, so when I hear about a grown man still acting like a dog, it's even worse for me. Mega-annoying and highly disturbing. But to each his or her own, and I think it's so awesome, and so sweet that there is so much love and acceptance and non-judgment in their relationship. I just couldn't listen this time around.
