The meaning behind Cindy’s name, the real-life trip and fall that inspired Mike’s stumble at work, and the origin of The Loneliest Locker. Our guest, Rich Dahm (The Colbert Report), shares these behind the scenes stories... and more! The man came prepared. A writer of some of your favorite episodes, Rich joins us to recap episode 603, “Major Anxiety.” Plus, we listen to an adorable voicemail from a pair of siblings who can’t get enough of The Middle.
