Chris Muldoon just happens to be Tim's cousin. He also recently returned to America after working as a medic at the South Pole. So, you know. He has stories. We got him to tell some of them — including why the South Pole has so much glitter — and no one was punched in the throat.

The host of KERA 90.1's "Think" talks about the statewide expansion of her interview show, her dyscalculia, and the one time she kinda sorta swore on the air. After you've listened to this podcast and come to realize that it is the best podcast you've ever heard, consider throwing EarBurner some stars on iTunes. 

Regina Merson founded the Reina Rebelde makeup line. Before she got into makeup, Merson was a bankruptcy attorney in Dallas. Before that, she was escaping kidnappers in Bangkok. Before THAT, she was developing her obsession with the power of beauty while watching her mom get dressed for the disco. We talked with Merson about her taste for tequila, heading into the jungles of Mexico for eyeliner inspiration, and how to know when the time is right for a new Plan A, no matter what your friends say.

Predictably, Facebook decided she was a bad mom. We talked with Holland about that experience, about developing a writer's thick skin, and about her breast milk consulting firm.

The founder of publishing house Deep Vellum and partner in Cinestate stops by the Old Monk to talk about why Dallas is so much better than Austin, what it's like to manage a metal band on the road, making movies, and his mustache.

The convicted felon and National Magazine Award winner (who also happens to be currently in the employ of D Magazine) talks about what a fun day in prison is like. He also gives us a preview of the memoir/manifesto he's under contract to write for Farrar, Straus and Giroux.
