I've enjoyed his podcast so far. Of course, it helps when he has iron chefs on as guests. I never thought I'd learn about owning race horses from Bobby Flay on a podcast.

The episode on southern cooking, and biscuits in particular, had me awash in waves of nostalgia. My grandma made the best biscuits I ever ate, and that's not just nepotism. We would go down there on holidays and strangers [often, to me] and family members would drop in at the crack of dawn, some just happened to be around [and she lived in rural, RURAL, LA] some were on a road trip and swung by. Everyone made a concerted effort to get there when her biscuits would be coming out of the oven. Made about 3-4 dozen every morning. Nothing to document the process but her hands and her brain. Honey, real butter, Johnny's Sorghum, Paw-paw [southern tree fruit that had the consistency of a real big raisin or a mango, looked like a brown lemon with a tangerine-like skin, you can pick them green or assorted shades of yellow but brown is the best, and a flavor somewhere between apple butter and spiced bourbon] jelly.

WTF?!?!? Dana Gould divorced Sue Naegle?

Leaving the BILLIONAIRE Entertainment Demi-Goddess who gave the Emmy Award Winning Comic leeway to generate humor and raise a loving family because he wasn't 'growing' at a proper rate?

Hollywood IS filled with weirdos.

ACS: Carolla and Mohr with Mohr playing 'Big Mama,' waaaayy funnier than Jo Koy's obstructionist PF Chang's Maitre d'. [Though it was HILARIOUS to hear Pardo mock Jo Koy's bit premises on Todd Glass Show].

Casey Wilson, as the group discusses Hollywood problems like they were legitimate complaints.

BTW - has anyone checked out 'Getting Doug with High' Basically Doug Benson bringing in celebs to smoke up and chat for a bit while altered on the internet. Haven't seen it yet, but thinking about it.

New Hardcore History just came out! Looks like a new series on WW1.

Late to the party, but Welcome to Night Vale is AWESOME.

Described as 'A Prairie Home Companion' as written by Stephen King, it's a fake newscast covering local events, that skew to dark humor and dark horror at a moment's notice. Riffs on every imaginable conspiracy theory. A little Art Bell, a little X-files, a little Affirmation Nation with Bob Ducca.

Don't believe me, check the reviews in itunes.

If you don't have time for the entire podcast [episodes are only about 20min each], rummage through Night Vale Weather;

their weekly music selection. Some of the most consistently excellent obscure or minor label music around.

Adomian is back on The Todd Glass Show, and it is GLORIOUS.

Absolutely no structure, just Todd goading him into a mess of bits, riffing on ridiculous songs [Sinatra's Bim Bam Baby, Clarence Carter's Strokin,' a couple of songs that are hilarious in their own right], shuffling through his characters.

I'm in tears from laughing at 'Merrill Schindler' singing to The Charleston.

I like the Nerdist podcast and Alton Brown's.
[Reply]

Alton Brown's was more interesting at the beginning. The interview-only format got a little boring because I don't watch Top Chef.

I've been catching up on Nerdists so I'm behind on AB. Explain please.
