Customer Reviews
It's a miracle!
When I first started listening to You Look Nice Today, I was completely bald.
After several applications of this "product" I can now say with confidence that I have a full head of hair. It's a miracle and I'm so grateful!
I just wish my back hair would stop growing now.
Seriously, I can braid that stuff now. It's like an Amazonian forest now.
It's really gross.
Who do I see about that?

Where it all began
After these many years its fun to look back at the classic episode 2 where all the habits started: the origin of the reference to "Prince Harry," the two obscure "C's" per show (ep2: callipygian + cravat), bringing Canada into discussion somehow, the ominous foreshadowing, and the sandwich crevices. No wonder that the 3nerdschatting.com fan club was born soon after.
It is cool to hear the nervous pauses between them in places, as clearly they were feeling each other during this early period. What I find amazing is the connection between the Cosby dream and what actually happens to scottsimpson in season 2 episode 143. Uncanny. This show is like a fine piece of cheese. "Why can I picture the Queen so easily?" Indeed.
