As Jordan and Naomi sip tropical drinks in their tree house from deep in the jungles of Costa Rica we bring you this very special edition of The Sunday Morning Experience. This week is the first part of a special two part interview with CBS Sunday Morning producer, Jon Carras. Jon has been a friend of our podcast since the early days and was kind enough to talk us through some of our favorite pieces he has produced.

Outro Music-Talkie, Costa Rica

A theme develops this week as we learn about a concept known as the "culture of character" as Faith Salie reports about personality types. Steve Hartman brings us a story about high school student Gerald Hodges, who lays down some serious wisdom. Lee Cowan has a segment about Louie Anderson where we get to see his transformation into Christine Baskets. Anthony Mason shows us what a good guy Dave Grohl is and we are impressed with his mom, Virginia, for letting her kid spread his wings and soar. There are such great people in this world!

Naomi makes a startling confession this week about her motives and Jordan goes on an unlikely emotional journey this week. Where was Carl Hiaasen in the 1990s and why are people so damn humorless.

Naomi and Jordan are still walking on sunshine after last week's 100th episode celebration. They discuss technical difficulties, high emotions, and relief that they pulled it off. Naomi and Jordan wonder if we all can be late bloomers like Tony nominated actress, Lauren Ridloff and we delight in the story of grown men trying to give each other heart attacks.

Join Naomi and Jordan and their friends, their friends' kids, and Victor The Pug for a special edition of The Sunday Morning Experience from the Broadview Taphouse. We celebrate 100 episodes with cake, mimosas, and special hand-forged origami.

Additionally, listen in on a new interview with Steve "The Tearjerker" Hartman and his cameraman, Bob, from Naomi and Jordan's basement.

AND, in what has to be the most meta part of our 100th episode a CBS Sunday Morning crew surprised us by showing up to tape the whole dang thing.

Jordan is relieved to have Naomi back at his side this week as they prepare for their 100th Episode celebration next week. They delight in a segment about two of the amigos from their favorite 1980s problematic comedy. Naomi likes the look of the bougie music festival where the highlight more on food and wine and less on Metallica. Jordan remembers his own prom and it doesn't look as fun as the one Steve Hartman showed this week. Also, Fred Rogers is the only man we have put on a pedestal who deserves it.
