Broadcasting this week from the Burj Dubai Hotel - the world's tallest free standing building. It wasn't cheap booking a room this high but definitely worth it. Here is a peak out Jesse's room window I took before we headed out for a night on the town.


Before we did the set up for the podcast our producer Tim Boyke (Boyky) and I took a walk around the city and of course he had to be 'that guy' that does the funny perspective shots. I wasn't too keen on wasting valuable blog space for the sake of his sense of humour, but I made a promised this would go up.
This week we talk about global warming and Jesse's recent offer to become the Commonwealth ombudsman, succeeding John McMillan. Of course, should he take such a role, he will have to relinquish his panelist position in TWiU - an important decision and I for one am happy to not be in his shoes.

As per popular request, here is the first of many in our new Bloopers! & Extras series... At this stage it's only a streaming audio. If you would like to have the entire Bloopers! & Extras series, it will be availible this June on the TWiU DVD and DVD collector's edition box set as an easter egg. Keep your eye on the blog for clues on accessing more clips.

Are you really suggesting The Unemployment Line just copied your podcast? Yea, you'd be right, if those guys hadn't been doing their show since the start of 2005.

I like your blog and show but I can never tell when you are telling the truth and when you are lying.

I read on NPR that the unemployment line had to pay a legal settlement to TWiU for breaching copyright and copying its format and content... can someone confirm if they already did this?
