Shownotes:

What happens when you take cricket, Bollywood, Marlon Brando and combine them with a little Xtreeeme Knitting?  Listen to this episode of Purl Diving to find out.

Links:

The Kolkata Knight Riders video that inspired it all.

The anthem ("Korbo Lorbo Jeetbo" AKA "2 Hot 2 Cool") is on CD, and available at Nehaflix, fine purveyor of all that is Bollywood.

"The Detonator" is the name of this year's Sock Wars Pattern.  Go.  Knit.  Feel a frisson of glory.

John Meadows read the excerpt from the Reuters news article.   His excellent podcast, On the Log, is all about, as he says, "looking at the future through the rear-view mirror", and is one I eagerly await each Saturday morning.

Bruce Murray *will* return to The Zedcast (I've been lighting candles, it will happen), and if you've never listened, it's worth starting at number one and working your way through his wonderful stories.  And if you're a runner, you can find him on his weekly call-in running podcast, The Running Shoe.

The Tech Guy occasionally hangs out at his blog, Unconventional Wisdom.

Great show Katherine! Nice job rounding up the support team. I'm always taken with your choice of music too - always something I've never heard, but love immediately.

I think getting others to provide voices for me is the thing I like doing best -- I'd probably be happiest just being a podcast producer, putting other people together, rather than doing it myself.

Though I do like picking the music, glad you liked it, Dude.
