That shit makes me angry and paranoid and motivated. Hope it spurs me into some kind of action.

Catching up on this. It's cracking so far.

This was good, but to be honest I was way more interested in the episodes involving politics than I was the mob stuff.

My backlog of podcast episodes is getting unwieldy. I am trying to listen to every episode of Spontaneanation before the final episode airs in 10 weeks--I have around 30 left, and a new one comes out every week, so really it's 40. In the meantime I'm weeks behind on Serial, Magic Tavern, Adventure Zone, and everything else current. I have huge backlogs for TAL and Lore, too. And Star Wars Minute kicked back off with a new season today. I feel like I need a longer commute.

This Ong’s Hat episode of Decoder Ring is interesting AF. Why would it piss you off, Joe?

^That’s a silly question. I think I know the answer, but I just want to keep the convo going.

This is easily one of the best podcasts I've ever heard.

It has been pretty good. Well researched and some of the content, like getting his bi curious high school qb on the record, has been impressive. Really wished they could have gotten phone conversations post conviction though. The stuff from the jail is interesting but he's still putting on a front.

That Decoder Ring episode was kind of annoying. The presentation and construction was lacking. Also, I agree with Joey - that guy is an asshol, and what he did to people is fucked up and cruel.

In other news, I’m really enjoying The Sex Ed.

I really like Revisionist History & have been a fan of Gladwell’s appearances on Simmons’ show in the past, but god damn. Malcolm made himself sound like a fucking fool on the BS podcast today. Ugh.

I know some of you guys are huge comic book fans but you gotta hear Kevin Smiths tribute to the late great Stan Lee. Fantastic stories and really touching memories of Stan from both himself and members of the audience
Here’s a link.

There’s a fun interview with Mike D and Adrock out there. Now I really want to read that Beasties book.

Very surprised by the Kenneth Lonnergan WTF. I liked him a lot more than I expected to.

Oh, and I enjoyed the first episode of Conan O’Brien Needs Friends. Lightweight, but I laughed a lot.
