Fans of the show are well aware of the saga that played out with Chris Lingebach a few months ago (you can catch up with everything here). Well, comedian Brendan Cooney, a mutual friend, snuck Chris in studio for an attempt at on-air reconciliation. What follows is 90 minutes of […]
…in spirit! In studio in spirit. There, now that you’ve clicked AND I’m legally off the hook, I hope you enjoy the episode. Producer Pete revisits his bombshell revelation from last week’s episode (that Kevin Spacey hounded him for play for years. He actually did, this isn’t like the Louis […]
For as long as I’ve known Pete, he has sat on an incredibly cool morsel of news. It’s something I never pressed him to mention on-air because, frankly, it was his business. But, given what’s been one of the largest stories in the news this week, I thought it was […]
Netflix’s latest show (or close to it, they launch five of these damn things a minute), Mindhunter, is an exploration of the FBI’s first forays into investigating serial killers. It is incredibly well done, but, damn if some of the dialogue isn’t incredibly disgusting. I mean, couldn’t they have talked […]

To protest the decision, the clown-garbed listeners of this unapologetically […]
There isn’t a lot of food in this country you can’t go out and eat on a whim. Give me 15 minutes, I’ll give you a gyro stuffed inside a lobster served on a bed of basmati rice. So imagine the piquing my interest received when I learned of the […]
Much like 80% of the adult population, if Netflix has given me a show with which to escape the drudgery of my life via a binge-watch, I will hop on that faster that a cat on a laser pointer (hello, Narcos season three). So imagine my surprise when studio guest […]
We recorded this so long ago that I don’t remember its actual content. So, instead, as an SEO experiment, I’m titling the episode “Top Comedy Podcast.” So if someone looks for the “top comedy podcast,” they might find “Top Comedy Podcast.” And now you know that I have neither brains […]
