Mark must think his listeners are really stupid.

At least he isn’t fabricating a GIRLFRIEND!

SAD

Why, he sounds so happy and… :)

Think Mark might have Dissociative Personality Disorder?

Mark Limbaugh?

The Twin Cities used to have an evening radio talk-show host named Steve Cannon who had an entire repertoire of alternative-voice characters, Ma Linger, Backlash Larue and Morgan Mundane. He’d switch between his voice and whichever character he was “talking with” so fast some listeners actually thought he had someone else in the booth wit him.

At least Phil Hendrie uses a phone!

I suspect Mark has been working, and living, alone a bit to long.

Current U S situation proves many will beleive a lot more outlandish.

If this were an old movie, Mark’s bf would become a big hit with his listeners. His ratings would go up. People would demand to meet Mark and Neil in person. Then Mark would have to go out and find a real person to play the role of his perfect bf. Sort of ike “Meet John Doe” only without Gary Cooper.

Picky picky picky

I get it. If you’re going to fabricate your dream partner, go big. But was all that seriously on your “list”? I mean…whittle that sucker down a little and you might find the real thing.

Reminds of a BBC radio comedy sketch about hypothetical partners. Two Scottish government security minders are talking about their secrets.

“Would you tell your wife?

“Haven’t got a wife.”

“Hypothetically. Surely, you’d tell you lovely wife.”

“My wife isn’t lovely.”

“Your hypothetical wife isn’t lovely? That’s the most Scottish thing I’ve ever heard.”

No writer/artist hits the ball out of the park every time…

You guys need to listen to the spitballers podcast! It’s so funny!
