Drew loves Ambien and Kristin Chenoweth’s Twitter! And poorly groomed teenage girls from Jersey! He loves closeted teachers and camping trips and skinning bears. He and Christen love prom dresses and teeth whitener and illiterate spoiled mothers. Those two and Carrie love auditions and cocaine and being ultra judgmental! All three of them love Target and drag queens and the Moonies. But Drew does not love popcorn and fish.

Is there anyone more delightful than Dave “Country” Koechner? A master storyteller, Dave brings magic to Who Charted? this week as he recounts remembrances of Bill Hicks, waxes poetic about his love for his wife, and discusses some of his favorite concert experiences. The music for the week is surprisingly good, as Kulap and Howard count down iTunes alternative songs. Chart Roulette is back, and the summer brings in some fresh films for our movie chart. Grab a piece of your Summah Gum and chew down on Who Charted?!

Sometimes the smallest creatures can teach us the biggest lessons. Today on Affirmation Nation we learn a bit about the feeding rituals of insects and hopefully about ourselves as well.

This week on Professor Blastoff we discuss…..woah…..okay, this is weird. I feel like I’ve written this before!?! About the possible causes of deja vu and how it relates to epilepsy and dementia. Am I alone? They discussed the double perception theory and the history of pie charts. I can’t be the only one who remembers this! You were wearing a cowboy hat! Well, I’m going to head to the neurologist, so while I’m there listen to this episode of Professor Blastoff (if you haven’t already).

Wayne’s World was a successful sketch-turned-movie that satirized the music and mentality of the time with absolute precision. Austin Powers hit the cultural zeitgeist so hard that the quotes and characters remain in public consciousness. The Love Guru is, uh…well, it’s a movie, that’s for sure. Matt Walsh, director of the upcoming film High Road, joins the How Did This Get Made crew (including an internet connected Jason) to discuss how this pro-enlightenment, over-written piece of garbage got made. He even brings our attention to some of the more bizarre reviews the movie received. If you’re curious about the odd casting choices and borderline animal cruelty from this Mike Meyers flop, tune in. Maybe, just maybe, you’ll hear one of your suggested character names!

There are few things in this world more refreshing than Affirmation Nation. One of those things is Coconut Water.

Operator, could you help us place this call? Seriously, it’s 1943 and we can barely comprehend all this newfangled technology! The Apple Sisters are here this week to discuss operation, both of the telephone variety and the way we operate in our daily lives. We’ve got an extra special guest with Tippity Tappity the Tapeworm who teaches us about the digestive system and gives the girls a spectacular song idea. Thanks so much for listening, and tune in your radios to Facebook so you can be part of the weekly Mail Room!

Comedy Bang Bang welcomes back an old friend this week with Rob Corddry. With him comes his beautiful and hilarious Childrens Hospital co-star Erinn Hayes who has a kind word for everyone in the room. Even the despicable and disgusting Dov Charney of American Apparel is subject to Erinn’s kindess, despite his repeated attempts to violate her in the most sustainable, organic way possible. With the return of Mr. Corddry, we also see the return of past features What Am I Thinking? and Jukebox Jury. If you’re curious about future episodes of Childrens Hospital (how can you not be?) or want to hear about Scott’s past experience as an American Apparel model (I mean, come on now!), tune on in to Comedy Bang Bang!

This week’s guest is one of the most talented actors, hilarious storytellers, and impressive clairvoyants we’ve ever had on the calming shores. Stephen Tobolowsky of Groundhog Day fame gives the Henderson Nation insight into his semi-sports related infirmity (by name only), and work-out advice courtesy of his father. Keeping in the theme of remarkable talents, we close the show up with new wave legend R.O. Manse and his attempt at a stadium rock hit. Stir it all up with some biting-and-punching news from the world of sports and you’ve got yourself a great Sklarbro Country!

Our primary job with The Wolf Den is to inform our listeners about who we are. So who better to have as a guest than one of our smart, funny listeners? Natan is a graduate student at DePaul University and when he asked for help with a project we gave him one condition: We tape it and send it out! Hear what Jeff thinks of our listeners, competition, and brand as he is interviewed by a genuine fan.

Have you ever been afraid to say what’s on your mind? Like if a woman at your church is being a total bitch or if a house guest is breaking the most important rule of your home? Just say it! Don’t be ashamed to say Lady Gaga makes no sense! Have no fear asking random strangers for (a)sexual favors! If you have your own web show, do whatever the hell you want on it! Just follow the lead of Drew, Jessica, and Meghan and have a sense of humor about whatever you do and say. Basically, don’t be Angelyne.

Expensive Pillow is one of Bob’s most beloved poems. Enjoy this poem as you start your day, and again as you climb into bed and hug your own expensive pillow.

Eardrop is the 100-calorie pack of Earwolf. It’s just as deliciously hilarious as our other shows, but in a convenient travel size!
June 7, 2011
You knew it wouldn’t be long ’til we tackled this next film. Racially insensitive and poorly constructed, The Love Guru is everything we want in a How Did This Get Made movie. Your assignment for this week: Watch the movie and make up your own offensive and unfunny character names a la Tugginmypudha and Jacques Grande. See you then!

EP. 6 — DNA
Guest Dr. Alex Platt
What makes you who you are? The simple answer: DNA. This week we invite Dr. Alex Platt to the hatch to discuss deoxyribonucleic acid and what it means for our species. Alex uses his scientific expertise to explain the birds and the bees (and the sluts) and judge David’s impression of Pee Wee Herman. Learn why cloning doesn’t work quite like we’d want it to, and why the fastest sperm might not be the best sperm, this week on Professor Blastoff.

Perhaps the greatest love a person can find is the love of a furry friend. But as Bob’s friend Ms. Hartar learned, you have to be careful with these four-legged companions.
