The spoken parts were re-recorded using halfway-decent microphones in early September, 2013, and some material was added (including all of part 2; the former part 2 is now part 3).

Details

  • /notes: includes the words, and details about the samples used
  • Part One is set on 9/11/01, though the time scale kind of moves forward rapidly (hours, possibly days) as the questions and answers progress.
  • Part Two is set on board the USS Abraham Lincoln at the time of Bush's infamous "mission accomplished" speech.
  • Part Three is set on 9/11/07 (the original recording was done on 9/9/07). This part is perhaps a bit harsher on Dubya, but hey – he has really earned it, and I don't mind letting him have a little of my spleen to go along with the civil rights.

Explanation

This is a "break-in" record (à la Mr. Jaws) where all the "responses" are from songs by They Might Be Giants. I tried to strike a good balance between humor and making serious points about the issues surrounding 9/11, with the serious points taking a slight backseat... but I think I managed to get some good ones in nonetheless. (What do you think?)
