Lucian
The gorilla commercial was played in the US during the Superbowl. I haven’t seen it since though.
Love your show.
Lucian, per your recommendations in the show I attempted to change my subscription in iTunes. I deleted the old subscription and then created a new subscription to planettvshow.com/mov iTunes promptly found the new link and (helpfully?) then updated it to feeds.feedburner.com/dailyplanettv for me automagically. I agree that feedburner does occasionally go down, but unless you actually host the files from your own servers, it isn’t going to do us any good to update our iTunes client, because it is too busy protecting us from ourselves to actually save our settings as we enter them. Your show is great! Keep finding the good stuff.
