In this week's podcast, Stephen, Kelly and Lindsey from Urlesque welcome special guest Brad O'Farrell to discuss our new favorite web goody: Play Him Off, Keyboard Cat. Upon discovering the hilarious original mash-up and resulting versions, we had to get to the bottom of this meme. So we tracked down O'Farrell, who created and uploaded the first mash-up iteration, and had him in to chat with us about the video.
In addition, we talk shop about memes -- what are they, examples, selling out your meme and when are they "forced"? The Urlbots also reveal their own meme creations... some secret, some not.
