How Did This Get Made? has been on a roll lately. They’ve had guests like Lexi Alexander, director of Punisher: War Zone, Greg Sestero from The Room, and just performed a live show at Largo with Damon Lindelof and Superman’s Jack O’Halloran. As we approach the one year anniversary of HDTGM? we have Paul Scheer on the show to talk about his podcast, Eardrop, and how he balances a busy career in television and film and an active online presence. Please do check out Eardrop and tell us what you think in the forum!

Let us all give thanks for another episode of Glitter in the Garbage! For trashy Christian rockers and people who are terrible at their jobs. For sad loners joining together during the holidays. For handbags. Mostly for handbags. I’m thankful for Drew, Tom, Chase, and George, and I’m thankful that Jenna Elfman doesn’t listen to this podcast!

DJ Robbi Scrab in the house! What what?!?! You might know him as Rob Schrab, the powerhouse behind Scud: The Disposable Assassin, Channel 101, and The Sarah Silverman Program, but this week you’ll get to know him as a prison fearing, swear word moderating, quiz playing master of the charts. The Billboard Heatseekers chart brings about another round of the LMFAO quiz, and I think you’ll be happy to know that the Movie Chart also features a familiar quiz. Top the whole thing off with a visit from Hermes the Chart Goose and you’ve got yourself a podcast to remember! Remember, it’s not too late to pick up Who Charted? LIVE from Seattle with special guest Sir Mix-A-Lot!

With 100 episodes now under his belt, I think we can all agree that Bob Ducca is qualified to give advice to the listeners. Best of luck, Bill!

We’re very fortunate to have two experts this week joining us to discuss The Room. First off we have Steve Heisler from The AV Club who has made it his journalistic duty to learn everything he can about this disaster. Also joining us is Mark (Oh, hi Mark!), aka Greg Sestero who also worked behind-the-scenes as a producer. Tuxedo football, outdoor green screens, unnecessary double casting, Mark knows how it all came to be and he’s here to share it all with us. Enjoy!

Whether or not you believe in God, you’d better believe that we have a brand new Professor Blastoff for you! And even if you don’t think Jesus was the son of God, you can know for sure that Marty Yu is our guest this week! Learn the difference between agnosticism and atheism, why critical thinking matters, and how morality impacts our society regardless of your own theological state.

It’s sure been a while since Jason Mantzoukas popped in for an episode of Comedy Bang Bang. And I don’t know about you, but I could really use a good interruption from a total stranger! We get the best of both worlds this week as Scott and Jason are joined by Chip Gardner, former television personality and (hopefully) future Honorary Mayor of Hollywood. Enjoy, and if Chip’s spiritual wellness inspires you to give, consider buying The Complete Comedy Bang Bang Christmas Collection. All proceeds go to the LA Regional Food Bank.

I think we’ve all gone through the sorrow of losing a loved one too soon. Even worse is the pain of the passing of a furry friend. Please take this time to think of your own late companions and pet your living friends extra hard. Thanks Bill!

The President is coming! The President is coming! We have so much to do before he gets here! We have to choose topics to discuss with him, catch up on our American history, and we must get Gobbly ready for our big performance! If you want to help us out, you can donate to The Apple Sisters PledgeMusic account and come see us TONIGHT in Los Angeles at the Elephant Lab! Gobble gobble!

Beverly revisits her Halloween harassment by disgruntled neighborhood children. Ronna & Bev talk to Jimmy Pardo about opening for Conan, his own very successful podcast, and mistaking the sex of his baby.

Thirsty from an exhausting Scrabble tournament? Back a little sore from a rough encounter at Shea? Eagerly anticipating the new Magic Johnson musical? Drink up, stretch out, and calm down because Will Forte awaits you on the calming shores of Sklarbro Country. His Saturday Night Live resume is hilarious, his athlete run-ins are captivating, and his Raiders fandom is inspiring. Less inspiring but equally intriguing is Owen Wilson who makes his long awaited return to clue us in on his NBA lockout plans. This is a great episode so don’t pull a Dykstra and miss it!

We’ve got celebrity on the brain this week on Totally Laime! Maybe it’s because our guest is Keith Powell from the coolest show on television, 30 Rock! Keith tells us about his run-ins with Sidney Poitier and Meryl Streep, his recent baller car purchase, and the tricky world of dealing with fans. Keith doesn’t disappoint as he kills it at The Oprah Game and Lame or Totally Rapid Fire! We had a blast, so we hope you enjoy!

Bob Ducca has tried his hand at scream therapy, art therapy, and even more experimental forms of self-help like gourd therapy. This week he takes it old school with an attempt at music therapy.

The political climate is red hot right now, but it seems as though no one is talking about the important issues! From the unfair business practices of Tim Gunn to the cruel world of Hollywood catering, the voices of the people are not being heard! The raspy voices of smoking college students, the carefree voices of disenfranchised language arts teachers! The voices of Drew Droege, Patrick Bristow, and David Jahn! Make your voices heard, and listen to Glitter in the Garbage!

The Chris Gethard Show is just the latest crazy, hilarious, original project from Chris Gethard. Chris has spent the last few years dreaming up some of the coolest comedy projects to come out of New York City. He’s used his brilliance to bring Diddy to the UCB, treat a depressed comedy nerd to the time of his life, travel cross country using only Twitter as a map, and is now broadcasting weekly out of Manhattan Neighborhood Network every Wednesday. Learn more about Chris and how his work ethic propels him this week on The Wolf Den.

Okay, it’s quiz time: Who has made it big on Parks and Recreation, written movie scripts for major studios, won an Emmy for writing the Oscars, and had a starring role in a movie? That’s right, the answer is Ben Schwartz who joins us this week for a detailed discussion of UK iTunes Singles and a tricky game of Chart Roulette. This is a guy who can kill at Howard’s quizzes, offer up legitimate showbiz knowledge in the Movie Chart, and summon his very own dolphin when the roulette wheel started acting up! Get to know the un-douchy, Lego-loving, gypsy-seducing side of Jean Ralphio this week on Who Charted?! Be sure to visit the Earwolf store to pick up a copy of Who Charted?

Paul F. Tompkins is remarkably dapper, hilarious, and creative. If you’d like to be more like him you can buy a nice suit and write some good jokes, but can you teach yourself how to be creative? Today on Professor Blastoff we discuss the neurological phenomenon of creativity and how it controls us (as well as how we can control it). I’m sorry this description wasn’t more creative. I really dropped the thematic ball this time.

Oh, hi there! One of the most requested, most beloved, and most revolutionary bad movies of our time has to be The Room. We’ve finally decided to tackle it and we’re going to do it right! The Room will be the latest How Did This Get Made? Director’s Edition as we bring in Greg Sestero, aka Mark, to talk to us about the production of this “black comedy.” Your assignment for this week is simple: WATCH THIS MOVIE!

Patrick Warburton: Actor, known for his work on Rules of Engagement, Family Guy, The Venture Brothers, and more!

This is not a prank! We really do have Jenny Slate from SNL and Elizabeth Laime from the Totally Laime Podcast on the show! Joining them is legendary actor Fagin Platt, son of Oliver Platt (the Canadian-American actor currently starring in the Showtime original series, The Big C with Laura Linney). If you listen carefully you might hear a surprise cameo from a legendary basketball player and prankster. Be sure to check out the new Earwolf Youtube channel for clips, videos, and exclusive content like a sneak peek at next week’s episode on Wednesday. Lastly, if you’re looking to make some purchases on Amazon, please do so through our affiliate link and a portion of the money will go to Earwolf.

There’s no reason for you to suffer-gette, because we’ve got a brand new episode of The Apple Sisters for you! Our fellow Americans, if you want more calypso music, silly turkeys, and mail rooms in podcasting, vote for The Apple Sisters! And if you’re a woman who can’t vote, just give it a listen. That should suffice.

If Vitali Klitschko thinks he can be the President of Ukraine, I believe we should nominate Maria Bamford for President of Sklarbro Country. She will rule the country with a sober fist, she will reform the laws regarding Monopoly, she’s both a diplomat AND a cheerleader, and she’s not afraid to ask for coaching when she needs it. Do all you BamFans agree? She’d make Sklarbro Country a welcome place where Bruce Jenner could come to forget about Kim’s failed marriage and Cristiano Ronaldo could reset his email settings. Bamford 2012!

In a perfect world, everyone would get to attend a weekend retreat with the beautiful, talented, charming, and hilarious Grey DeLisle. She’s an incredible voice over actress, one of the funniest twitterers (@StephanieClient) and much to our delight, an Oprah fan! This week she grants us access to her amazing voice and talks to us about dick sizes and butt sex (what else?)! Enjoy!

After the outrageous success of the last tone poem, Bob has once again put quill to scroll. Turn off your anxious thoughts, tell your worries to come back later, and let your brain soak in the nectar of Rattle Crackle Crunch Tang.

According to Ben Gigli of 5 Second Films, making friends with your fellow content providers is imperative to having success online. We took that advice before he even gave it and had him on The Wolf Den to discuss Youtube monetization, understanding content platforms, and the impossible task of predicting merchandise success. Joining him is Dave Mancherje, our financial guru, who helps us understand Amazon Affiliates, AdSense, and everything else intimidating to industry newcomers.

Let’s all sell out, shall we? Let’s all go on television sets and get pushed around for a paycheck. Let’s give up on our life goals and resign to babysitting rich assholes. Let’s plan a totally self-centered “charity” show. Let’s skip out on jury duty, check into a cheap motel, and OD on Ibuprofen 800. Lord knows Drew, Sam, and Beth are going to!
