Synopsis

Being Jim Davis is the world's premiere daily Garfield chrono-cast. Our mission is to review and discuss each and every strip of the long-running syndicated comic series before eventually dying of old age. We hope you'll come along with us on this journey, and share in the laughter as we catalogue the daily adventures of everyone's favorite indolent feline through a lens of history, humor, and heuristics.Each episode will be a thorough examination of a single strip. We'll place it in its historical context, then attempt to unravel the morals and meanings hidden under the surface. Finally, we'll consider the question of whether the strip stands the test of time. Above all, we promise to always present you with our sincere, personal, reaction to each Garfield comic strip.Our only thought is to entertain you.

    In today's episode of Being Jim Davis, my (Chris') audio is all fucked up. Special guest host Sen Cantor alerted me to the fact and I was going to restart my computer but then Jon was all like "Naw, dude. Our listeners won't even notice. They'll be too busy drunkenly masturbating." That's the contempt in which he holds you, out valued listeners.

    ATTENTION LISTENER: If you feel that the audio on today's episode is a bit off, blame Jon's friend Andy, who called in to the program but hadn't sent me his audio by the time I started editing. So I had to use the Zoom audio, which, whatever, it's fine. It's fine. Today's strip:

    In today's episode of Being Jim Davis, Chris forgets to edit and upload Tuesday's episode until late Monday night.

    AFTER experience had taught me that the common occurrences of ordinary life are vain and futile, and I saw that all the objects of my desire and fear were in themselves nothing good nor bad, save in so far as the mind was affected by them; I at length determined to search out whether there were not something truly good and communicable to Garfield. ars PARADOXICA, a better podcast than this one. @manieldanning, an astronomically better Twitter account than ours Today's strip
