Ok, I loved the show this week! I don\'t always agree with you guys but I very much like hearing honest opinions about the show. Like other people have said, I always look forward to listening to the Podcast after the show. Thanks for the great commentary!

Miner is going to duke it out with Michael - or at least physically remove him, himself? I have to remind myself to forget all the behavior in the office that would normally get people fired - and just laugh at the absurdity of the situations. Sometimes the laughs are easy. Sometimes you have to work at it a bit. .

I\'m back online (finally!) and happy to be posting about the podcast. I loved the episode too. I absolutely LOVED Michael crawling across the floor and eventually grabbing Phyllis\' chair. Hysterical. As for the podcast, thanks for the musical interludes -- I loved them. Ha ha! I was dying when \"Take this job and shove it\" started playing. (That song goes through my head a lot lately . . .) Also, Matt, have fun on your vacation!! I\'m totally jealous.

I doubt Miner\'s personnel shake-up was simple ineptitude. Pam\'s restlessness tells us everything we need to know about how useless the receptionist job is (remember the cold open a few weeks ago; the company was installing a phone feature that--by Pam\'s own admission--would accomplish 95% of her job). Kevin\'s already shown himself to Miner to be a buffoon so how much more harm can he do? I think Miner\'s promotion of Stanley was racially-motivated (his camaraderie with Hank is what tipped me to that). To chalk up the Stanley thing especially as being out-of-touch is too simplistic. Even if Miner missed how much of a rising, charismatic star Jim Halpert is, there\'s no way he could have missed Stanley\'s laziness. Stanley was actually doing his crossword games as Miner promoted him! I think I\'m on to something here.

LOL... I love Stanley! And how great for Leslie David Baker as an actor to have the crosswords with him all the time... he can always hide a page from his script there is he needed to. (And yes, I learned that from when Peter played Benedict Arnold in the school play on the Brady Bunch.) Although it\'s not like Stanley ever has that many lines... it\'s either \"No I do not\" or \"Have you lost your damn mind?\"

Great episode, as always. But how do you spend two minutes explaining Netflix WITHOUT playing the Kelly Kapoor scene from \"Safety Training\"? Ah, they lob the ball up there, and you took the pitch. :-) Seriously, though... I look forward to the improvements on the show once the new income arrives. This is by far the best Office-related podcast, and you guys deserve technical quality that is commensurate with the content\'s quality.

Thanks Kevin and Matt for another fun podcast, a bunch of laughs, and the best part of my work week! I\'m always excited for a new episode of The Office, and I\'m equally thrilled to have your podcast to listen to a few days later. You guys are the yummy dessert to my delicious Office dinner!

Brian, I think Pam has a low-risk opportunity to jump from receptionist to salesman by going with Michael. If the company takes off, she looks like a genius. If it crashes, she still has Jim\'s salary to fall back on. It\'s not like the old days when she would only see Jim at the office...
