Part 1

Part 2

It took me about 20 minutes to watch the 5 minute Crackle video update from Penn, the player took forever to load and then kept stopping...it took a lot of patience, but I really wanted to hear what he had to say. :-)

Edit: Oooh, oooh! Penn's little Crackle clip, "We're Still Right About Circumcision" is on YouTube.Com now!

And it says the circumcision rates are falling, uh, in the 1960's, uh uh it was almost 90% in the 1960's and less than 60% in 2004 and now down to maybe uh 50%.

uh, and the two rates are uh uh it reduces herpes and what is that the S uh the H uh

It is not an extra episode. It was a short reply to some letters. It seems they do that from time to time. The link may not work outside the US sorry.
