  1. Before we start this week's show, we have to let you know that it is a special summer compilation of all the most wonderful stuff that for time, space and legal reasons, we have not been able to fit into shows over the last few months. Hang on a second. We're releasing a whole show that was legally dubious. This is the end of no such thing as a fish. We're going to be sued by figs, the people who run the Fermilab, Russia. All of these things are mentioned in the show. My catchphrase this week is balls, balls, balls. Listen out for that.
