This episode was initially distributed with the title Inspiration is a Poster. However, less than two hours after the initial release the title was changed to Chigger Bites on the Bus Driver. Listeners who downloaded the episode before the title change will see the initial title, but all subsequent downloads displayed the updated title.
When Chigger Bites on the Bus Driver was released, Merlin announced the availability on twitter, where he said that it contained the "best 38m[inutes] of B2W so far," from 00:40:44 to the end of the episode.
All I can do is say the truest thing I know about most people which is that when they stop worrying about what other people are giving them and they start worrying about what they are able to produce for themselves, your vision changes so completely that you're gonna hear the words of the Dan Benjamin Character and you're not gonna believe those words ever came out of your mouth.
