I heard this on the way to school this morning! I was so surprised. I thought it did a fair shake of covering the historical, musical and comedic aspects of the tuba in a brief crash course format.

When I saw the picture on his website, my first thoughts were "how does he keep track of all of these tubas?". My wife's reaction was "who dusts those things?"

You know the story:
One day he was late for work, forgot to lock the door, and left his tuba out.
When he returned, sure enough, the whole house was filled with tubas...
