Katie Couric
The Tubes' "Prime Time"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCp6Tc1Ph0w
REASON: She is a TV host, thus a song about being on TV, so the chorus would be cool.




Patton Oswalt
The Punk Group's "Big Ass Sandwiches"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEfThXdHPz8
REASON: As you know, Oswalt is a foodie. When he is in Portland, the guys at the Big Ass Sandwiches food cart asked if he could show up when he landed. He did:

Because of this, they made a sandwich in his honor, called the "Oz-Bie Space-Pat Waste-Walt":

While The Punk Group has since split up, it would be cool if the song was done. Plus, it would mention one of my favorite food carts in Portland, as Brian and Lisa are cool people. If you need to contact the guys of The Punk Group, here is/was their Facebook page. I could probably locate one of the guys more directly if need be:

But yes, I want to honor Oswalt with the "Big Ass Sandwiches" theme song.
