¡Disculpe!
The Diner is open.
Went all the way to Mexico last week just to watch a man die. -
You Are Now Free to Move About the Diner
We're getting ready for a road trip and you know it's not best to travel on an empty stomach. So sidle to the long counter and get something in you before we take off.
James will return in two weeks. See you then. -
The Wreck of the Tighty Whitey
In which the SS Tighty Whitey becomes a wreck and strands Gilligan and company on an island with a lot of vines and bamboo. Meanwhile in the news.... one of these days, Alice... to the moon! (Or at least to The Diner.)

Customer Reviews
Great stuff, James!
Nostalgia, common-sense talk, humor and more!
A show about nothing…
But it’s more than a tad fun. I guess I love “The Diner” - this is a nice ball of yarn too…and NO Mungo Jerry!

James’ mellifluous voice and extraordinary wit come together for an enjoyable thematic audio romp that echo’s Ken Nardine’s Word Jazz of many years ago. The tease is that there are so few of these.
