That was indeed awesome, but the first time I heard it, I wasn't really watching the screen, and missed Joel and Crow just nudging each other and shaking their heads etc.
I saw Joel first, and overall prefer him to Mike. Maybe that's because most of the Mike episode's I've seen haven't had Trace Beaulieu's Crow, which I prefer greatly. Plus, as someone mentioned, Joel seemed to have a better dynamic with the bots, and I prefer a lot of the earlier episode's for the lack of sarcasm, and more of the bots imitating the characters.
