I know. The first podcast that mk participated in I put a Beatles song in the background as he was introduced. It was completely unintentional but he quickly called me on it :)

I still can't figure out how you can love XTC and loathe the Beatles, but he manages.

Text surrounded by asterisks (*) is italicized.

Text surrounded by plus signs (+) is bolded.

Text surrounded by tildes (~) is blocked out.

Symbols such as *, +, |, and ~ can be used literally by placed a \ in front of the text.

A user's name surrounded by at signs (@) links to their profile, and the user is notified that you mentioned them.

A word surrounded by hash signs (#) becomes a tag and links to posts with that tag.

Text after a blank line that is indented by two or more spaces is reproduced verbatim in a different font.

URLs become links. However, new users cannot post links in comments.

Hubski URLS become embedded cards, displaying information about the post or comment.

Text can link to URLs by using the following format: [linked text](http://theurl.com)

I'm literally grinning ear to ear that you intro'ed him with the Beatles. Good point about XTC!
