Fit yourself with your best hot breath voice and say it: Body. It's fun, if not a bit creepy. That sums up this week's episode pretty well, come to think of it.

Hey Kelly, Molly, and Jason,

There is no better “jingle” for Tool Time than the iPhone song (you know, the one played every commercial). This is the most obvious and only logical choice :-) .

Love the show!

Hey gadgettes,

I just finished listening to Episode 85. I doubt this would be possible, but I would be completely willing to pay extra for an uncensored version of the podcast each week. Seriously, that would be the greatest thing on the virtual air, and CNET would be foolish to ignore this potential revenue stream.

If there’s a petition I need to sign to get the MF’n ball rollin’ on this MF’er, won’t you be so kind as to let a MF’er know. That would be MF’n sweet, ‘nah mean?

--Eric (from Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada)


Hey guys!
Great job getting a sponsor! Keep up the awesome work!

--Armand from Ireland

Am I the only one that thinks of the sit-com "Home Improvement" when they do the segment "Tool Time"? On the TV show that was the name of the show within the show that Tim hosted.
