A long time ago, a movie came out called The Blair Witch Project. That's not totally relevant, except for the fact that it made hundreds of millions off a small budget. There's a new movie out called Obsession and it's shaping up to be the latest low budget horror movie to make bank. I guess after years of movies with budgets to rival the GDP of a large city, audiences are looking for something different.

Remember Ed Sullivan? Statistically, you probably don't. The man has been dead for 50 years. But you've heard of him. That used to be the power of talk shows. If we're still talking about any of the current hosts fifty years from now, I'll be shocked. You know what we'll definitely be talking about? Hangnails. They're the human condition. Topics: Ed Sullivan Local media is dying Jesse and Johnny Tormented genius Aimee Bock sentenced Bemidji Cuticle clippers

The Moderate Majority party is back and they need signatures. If you're interested, they'll tell you what they're about and what the signatures are for. If you're not, you can still hear us talk about celebrities overdosing, or people getting CTE. There's something for everyone. Topics: Mark Fuhrman dies CTE "Michael" on track to make a billion dollars Celebrities dying young Street drugs are bad Moderate Majority party Minnesota's poor governance Kids being taught to be victims

Prebiotic soda. It's all the rage. Even Pepsi has one. And as gross as it sounds, apparently it's pretty good. So from our perspective, there are two primary ways to make a lot of money: sell prebiotic soda, or join congress. How hard could it be? Topics: True Don Bleu Forgetting interviews James Bond coming back Celebrities being approached on the street Pelosi tracker Presidential net worths Ethan got sick again Coyotes Prebiotic soda

The beginning of the show is a bit of a mess. That's what happens when the producer is stuck in traffic for an hour and a half. There's a silver lining, though. They say that no matter how long you live, you always want more time. But if you sit in stop and go traffic, time will stretch out for eons. Maybe the secret to eternal life is just making it feel like an eternity. Topics: Traffic on highway 12 Devil Wears Prada 2 blew out Mortal Kombat 2 In The Grey Tim saw Marty, Life is Short Lo...

All good things must come to an end, and Journey has been going since the 70s. That's not to say Jonathan is done working: he's got a solo career as a Christian artist and, apparently, plans on becoming a minister. He's also concerned about the future of war robots, so he may have a career as a John Connor type as well. Who knows what the future might hold?

Conan O'Brien is back to host the Oscars in 2027, which reminds us: talk shows kind of suck. Petco's customer service could also use a bit of tweaking. But you know what doesn't suck? Podcasting. We do it. Jake Hudson does it. Who's Jake Hudson, you ask? You'll find out today.

Anyone who's ever been anything approaching famous will tell you - sometimes fame isn't great. People will approach you during dinner, chase you down into an elevator, and other fun ways to interrupt your day. You also, inevitably, end up getting a cult of lunatics who want you dead. Why? It's the human condition, I guess.

Kevin Hart got roasted. Apparently it was pretty cutthroat. That's not our thing, but roasts have been around for long enough that clearly they have an audience. Let's ask Randy Lubas, hosting Loons on the Lake at Crooners for the fourth year. He's a comedian, therefore he is a comedy expert. By the way, he's giving away tickets. Listen to the show to find out how to get 'em. Topics: Kevin Hart roast Person sucked into jet engine CBS News Radio shutting down The AI Bubble Loons on the Lake...

There's a hot new sport sweeping the nation, and once again it's named after a food. It's banana ball, and it's basically baseball but weird. Kind of like how pickleball is tennis but weird. You know what's not weird? Sequels to ancient franchises. Devil Wears Prada 2 and Mortal Kombat 2 are making waves at the box office. There's never been a better time to be over the age of 30. In some cases, well over. Topics: Tom's teeth Banana ball Harlem Globetrotters Disney Cruise CSAM sting Devil ...

Rats. They've got a terrible reputation. Maybe they deserve it. Between eating your pizza and giving you Hantavirus, they're real troublemakers. And speaking of troublemakers, Myq and Tiffany are both doing shows, but they're not at the same time so there's no bad blood. Topics: Hantavirus cruise getting worse Rats Gas prices Presidential assassination attempts Tom's dentist Bobcat Goldthwaite Comedy's broad audience

Cynthia Schumacher is 97 years old and has been writing poetry since high school. For those less math-minded among you, that adds up to a very long time. She's still at it, too, having just put out a book of short stories called Prose Pizza. Where's Tom, you ask? Probably performing amateur dentistry on himself.

The Met Gala happened again, and apparently it was a less ostentatious affair this year. That doesn't mean it was free of dumb stuff. Far from it. It does mean that we spend more time talking about festering skin lesions than what the celebrities were wearing. But who doesn't, really? Topics: Movie production coming back to America Met Gala Capitol Records days Dr. Pimple Popper 3000th episode party Bob/Tom interview

Spoiler alert if you care about Song Sung Blue. If not, perhaps you care about Michael? A lot of people seem to. Personally I think it sounds like a bit of a downer. And speaking of downers, have you ever had a BAC in the upper teens and still managed to walk around? That can't be easy. Topics: Glyphosate in wheat Tom and Kathryn saw Song Sung Blue and Michael Kristyn in Salt Lake City for Dancing With the Stars Spirit Airlines defunct Britney Spears DUI Monkey outbreak in Fort Lauderdale...

Kristyn's talking about it. Tim's talking about it. Even Craig Gass is interested once he learned who's in it. We're talking about Devil Wears Prada 2, a movie about how magazines and newspapers are floundering. And also fashion, probably.

Our 3000th episode is a celebration not just of the show, but the people who've been part of it. Whether they were only there for a while or have been here the whole time, we've got more people on the show today than we could possibly fit into the studio at any given time. We still remember when we made a big deal about 500. I wonder how far we can take this thing? Guest list: Kristyn Burtt Melissa Barnard Mike Gelfand Mike Rasmussen Mike Molina (yes, we had three mikes on in a row) Don S...

After nearly 14 years as a podcast regular, Kristyn finally meets us in person for the first time. She'll be there for episode 3000 as well, but it felt kind of dumb to have her fly all the way here for a 20 minute segment on a special, so she gets a bonus episode. She's here for the whole time, too. Also with us are Ralph, all the way from LA, and Dave. We're certainly not having any shortage of well-wishes today.

The internet is back! Kind of! We might not have five nines uptime, but we do have the ability to hold an only slightly disastrous conversation about these politicians. You know the ones.

The internet went down just before showtime, so instead we did what we could with what we had. The result? Pretty similar, but certainly different. This is just the most recent bad thing that's happened over the past few days. Topics: Correspondents' dinner shooting Ethan gets sick Pinning All this hatred

There are certain movies they really shouldn't show on a plane. Nudity is, you'd think, a given. Marley and Me is also a given, but for a very different reason. Nobody wants a stuffy nose while at 10,000 feet. How about Michael? A little child abuse and psychological torment won't cause any problems for the audience. Topics: Song Sung Blue was sad Smoking is coming back Michael is polarizing I Swear is also polarizing

Tom and Kathryn are gone. That means today's show is just Andy and Kristyn, right? Nope, Kristyn is gone too. Good thing she's got a husband who's no stranger to a microphone. It's also a good thing that Bob and Mike Bryant were there, because Raphael is a sports oddsmaker - among other things. Have you ever bet on how many people John Wick would kill? You might have used his odds. Topics: Nostalgia in entertainment Running Point renewed Darrell Sheets apparent suicide Bill as Ricky Ricardo...

What's it like to be a celebrity? Lots of money. Not a lot of peace. Everyone knowing you can be, ironically, very isolating. But one thing unites us all: we all get old. We also all pay lots of money for our license tabs. Except for Jesse. He gets two years' worth for $200. Topics: Dave Mason dies Michael Jackson The isolation of fame Netflix might be buying Radford Studios Aging fast vs slow SPLC indictment Tribalism Ethan's car adventure

Concert prices are through the roof. DoorDash commands outrageous prices. Netflix is raising their rates. And all of this is happening while nobody has any money, apparently. How is this possible? We don't know. What we do know is that car repairs suck. Topics: Michael documentary Ticketmaster monopoly Food delivery service fees Alan Osmond died Ilhan Omar's accounting error UK cigarette ban Tom's car repair bill

Patrick Muldoon and Bob from Bob and Tom are dead. Madonna doesn't even get applause anymore. Is the old world fading away? It seems so. That's why we name drop people like Errol Flynn and Andre the Giant. You'll never have an excuse for not knowing old names if you listen to this show.
