I had started listening to my ipod when I worked at a library in college, and I would listen while I was working because my job was really boring. At first, I listened exclusively to NPR and college classes that one of the California Universities was broadcasting at the time. But the brain can only take so much of that, so I just typed 'comedy' into the podcast directory and Keith and the Girl came up.
I had been seeing them on itunes for awhile, but I didn't like the name. I totally had the typical 'feminist' reaction that Chemda talks about on the show. I finally decided that since they seemed to be on every other podcast search I made, I'd give them a try. The first show I listened to, Keith said some really offensive things, but I was laughing the whole time.
My vegetarian, PC, feminist, liberal arts college mind was blown. It took at least 2 more episodes before I really knew I liked them, but this show was exactly what I needed from the get go.
