    • 2006 October 8, Jackson Publick & Doc Hammer, “Showdown at Cremation Creek, Part 1” (16:48 from the start), in The Venture Bros.[1], season 2, episode 11, spoken by The Alchemist (Dana Snyder):
      “And then, like that wasn't enough, I ended up with a raging case of crotch crickets. And did I get an apology? Hell no! I got a, "I'll call you". Still waiting for that chestnut. Okay Byron, your turn, truth or dare?” “Oh, you are actually talking to me? Truth.” “Did you really think you could get a bunch of middle-aged men together to chase bad guys around and take it seriously?” “Well yes, I did, as a matter of fact. The Order of the Triad has potential.” “Potential? When JT was conscious he was throwing up artificial cherry flavored vomit. And I'm a little Buzzby Berkly myself.”
