Ranjit and Cody are joined by Bruce Jarchow (Second City, 'Ghost') and Mark Belden (Second City) to discuss the curmudgeonly genius of Charles Bukowski and his collection of short stories 'The Most Beautiful Woman in Town and Other Stories'. More specifically, we're talking about "The Most Beautiful Woman in Town", "Six Inches" (which made Cody VERY uncomfortable), "The Gut-Wringing Machine", and "The Beginner". Stick around after the closing song for a special Bukowski Bukowstreat (Cody apologizes for the pun).

FINALLY! Our One-Year Anniversary LIVE episode is here! Live from Stage 773 in Chicago, Illinois, Ranjit and Cody are joined by comedians Sherman Edwards, Nick Johne, Katie McVay, & Rebecca O'Neal to talk about all things Dr. Seuss (specifically There's a Wocket in My Pocket, Green Eggs and Ham, Fox in Socks, and One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish). The audio isn't our normal quality on this one, but it turned out a lot better than expected. ENJOY!

WE'RE LIVE at The Out of Bounds Comedy Festival in Austin, TX with Los Angeles's Brandie Posey and Austin's own Justin Davis to discuss David Foster Wallace (DFW)'s short story 'Lyndon' based loosely (but, how loosely?) on President Lyndon B. Johnson. Oh, I'm sure the Austinites'll love this.

But, more specifically, they talk about partial taxidermy, feminism, and American history. You can find 'Principles 101' at ManhoodAcademy.com, however, beware... it's a really awful website.

Cody and Ranjit are overjoyed to be joined by the talented, worldly, intelligent, and oh-so-charming personalities of Michael Gellman and Tim Kazurinsky. They discuss the chilling, haunting, and just super weird tale of 'The Last Feast of Harlequin' by terror-master Thomas Ligotti. Listeners beware, you're in for a scare (and sexy voice contest)! The story can be found online, at the library, on Amazon, and in the shadows lurking just outside of your house.

Cody and Ranjit have friend, comedian, latter day Funmaker, and musician extraordinaire, Casey Brown over to discuss the creepy Campbell novella which inspired several movies including John Carpenter's 'The Thing'.

Cody and Ranjit are pleased to be joined by writer, improviser, actor, sketch comedian, and lady of the stage, Mary Jo Bolduc to discuss the foreshadowy nature of Flannery O'Connor.

Cody and Ranjit are pleased as Wendigo punch to have comedian Dave Stinton pop in to gab about 'The Wendigo' by Algernon Blackwood in what is, quite possibly, the silliest episode of the show to date. The book is available on Amazon Kindle and also on YouTube as a sort of visual audiobook thing.
