Wes Anderson is one Sly Fox

It's hard to meet a more agreeable director. He seems to be a man who is always two steps ahead of his time. I'd say way ahead of his time except that usually entails a man whose films are appreciated AFTER his death while he for some reason seems to release films right at the perfect profit point. Hmmmm What direction are you taking us in now Mr. Wes?

Do you completely understand the whole recession situation?

Do you barely understand what mortgage-backed securities are? Do you have no idea what the F%!K sub-prime loans are? Me too, until I listened to probably the best podcast team ever. Chuck and Josh are a funny, entertaining perfect way to start your morning. Click subscribe on your itunes and listen to their 15 minute podcasts on everything from what a body farm is to how the CIA almost completely created the LSD drug culture (seriously its absurd the facts they find).

Don't worry, crazed theorists their not, these boys do some serious investigating and have wrote articles on everything you did, and didn't, want to know. I have a rough, if any, idea on what the hell happened to the economy and within 15 minutes I feel like a pro. I know this sounds like an advertisement but i'm such a loyal fan I can't help it. It's 15 minutes of unusual in what can sometimes be a very typical day.
