Dear Elephants Larry

The Elephants Larry have a new podcast, and when the fourth episode was released last week, I noticed a trend in the length of the podcast. I decided to go all "Nate Silver" on them and make some predictions based on the data at hand.

As you can see in the graph above, the length of each episode has increased, compared to the one before. When this trend continues, after just 38 weeks of podcasting, their show will be 5 hours long. This will be a big commitment for the guys, I'm sure, but it's nothing compared to the commitment 27.5 years from now when they'll have to start recording their entire lives for one week in order to post that week-long episode at the end of the week. They'll also have to start recording the next week's podcast BEFORE they finish the previous one, since that next week's episode will last longer than the week between episodes. Whoa. I just blew your mind.

In case you haven't seen it yet, you should also check out their pilot "The WOW" in which I play not one but two small roles! One where I have a line and one where I am blindfolded. See for yourself! (Note: Contains swears.)
