   4 September 2007 - Tim Gunn, Kevin Brenn

   From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu   
      
   Tim Gunn:   
   	- He's famous for giving fashion advice and for being Captain Picard's   
   science officer.  Duchovny is morphing into a woman.   
   	   
   	- Conan's style is okay, but does Gunn ever have to correct his friends?   He   
   may ask if friends trust their decision-making process.  But if you have the   
   right attitude, ski boots and a World War I helmet work.   
   	   
   	- Conan has long legs.  Solutions?  Gunn claims most people want longer   
   legs.  Supermodels do, for example.  Gunn wonders about the high-hoisted   
   pants, but feels the jacket mitigates things.   
   	   
   	- Duchovny feels the waist above the belly button is too high.   
   	   
   	- Undergarments are important!  But he doesn't like boxers as they feel like   
   diapers to him.  Conan doesn't walk around thinking he looks like he's in   
   diapers.  Duchovny prefers no underwear.  Duchovny remembers the jock strap   
   over the sweat pants,    
   which Gunn finds unfathomable.   
   	   
   	- He likes underwear one's natural skin color; for Conan this implies white   
   freckled underwear with little blue veins.  For women it's better as they   
   often have translucent or showy clothes.  Plus skin-color underwear allow you   
   to fake people into    
   thinking you're nude.   
   	   
   	+ Nice level of interaction between Duchovny and Gunn.  The show is always   
   stronger when the guests get into talking together; they should encourage more   
   of that.   
      
      
   Kevin Brennan:   
   	- He's from da streets of Connecticut, but New York City is crazy!  This is   
   where I stopped believing he'd be novel.   
   	   
   	- French restaurants have big bills and little portions!   
   	   
   	- He found things unpleasant about life in high school.   
   	   
   	- But sex now is good.   
   	   
   	- Beer commercials are not perfectly realistic.   
   	   
   	- Prescription drug commercials are stupid.  But what if marijuana was   
   legal?  You could have commercials of middle easterners not blowing themselves   
   up!   
   	   
   	- Airline pilots get busted for drinking, like fifteen years ago.   
   	   
   	+ I was right.  He's the Stand-Up Comic #3 Value Meal.
