We're fired!

C&HiTunesMar27

... up the proper iTunes charts! Today, at 11.37am, Thursday March 27, 2008, our the Collings & Herrin Podcast sits at number 23 in the actual, all-round podcast charts - our highest placing ever. Look who we are two places ahead of, with their 30-45-second videos of uncomfortable looking girls in their underwear by a window. We are better than that. Our next one will be available tomorrow afternoon, thanks to the hosting skills of The British Sitcom Guide. We promise not to hold up a Page 3 girl in this week's picture. (It's very difficult to ridicule and condemn sexism without accidentally bringing attention to it.)

Unfortunately, you're still one place behind a podcast hosted by 'Plankton Productions'!

Well done. I look forward to Poddie number 6. Unfortunately last night I missed "The Apprentice" so am unable to comment on your other blog, but thanks for the update.

Congratulations, but no big surprise as it is very, very funny.

Blimey, we've slipped out of the Top 25 already! Victory is brief. I'm just glad I took a picture of it for posterity.

We're 21st now. I actually missed it cos I was looking lower down. Not that I am spending every waking second checking our chart position.
And what's this "we" promise not to hold up any page 3 girl pictures? That was all your idea. I would never do such a thing

That, Richard Herring, is because you dare not touch a printed picture of a nude lady for fear of becoming aroused by it, even though you are only actually touching some newsprint.

I'm not going to check the charts ever again, for fear of coming across as obsessed. You'll have to tell me how we're doing.

Two things :

1. The podcast is too long. It only takes me twenty minutes to walk home in the evening, therefore it takes three days to listen to the entire podcast.

2. Morley freely admits to spending far too long each day looking at his sales rankings on Amazon. It's perfectly natural, we all want to feel that we're loved.

Sorry, Bill. We'll make today's podcast 20 minutes long.

Morley should avoid looking at his sales rankings on Amazon - it's a mug's game. That's Me In The Corner is currently gasping for air at the giddy heights of 73,662. Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now is at 115,530. Morley's Joy Division book is faring better at 21,144, but then it is only a few months old. His masterpiece, Nothing, is winning at 17,716. See? No good can come of it.

You're currently just about in the top 25, at number 24, but you'll be pleased to know you're still one place above your friends at the Nutscast
