Movies:

I can't play movies for you over the radio, but if you want I can read the script in a monotone voice and butcher every joke.

Television:

those Vh1 countdown shows, and the ones about the decades

Books:

Can radio shows read books? Only books on tape.

Heroes:

John Lennon. He made tiny glasses look cool.
