00 – Welcome to 1415! I’m wishwashy apparently but now named The Note Keeper!
It looks like the character Jimmy was looking for is the Keeper of the Sacred Scrolls.
05 – Mad Dog Russo vs Alf. http://thesportshernia.typepad.com/blog/2008/04/page/4/
Jimmy does his Mad Dog impression. Jimmy rattles off the history of Planet of the Apes franchise as Mad Dog. Heston is as angry as he should be.
10 – Jimmy as Mad Dog tries to guess the actor Matt was thinking of, who is not a Carradine.
The actor Jimmy was thinking of was Wentworth Miller. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0589505/?ref_=tt_cl_t2
Peter Green is indeed the original guitarist of Fleetwood Mac. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleetwood_Mac

Jimmy’s back! So long Mad Dog.
