The Vander Jam

Goooooooooooood morning! No way in hell am I leaving that much time between episodes again. Partly because it's too damn fun to talk to you folks, and today I'm with longtime friend, supporter and just the sweetest peach of a man, @nertlightened! He's married! He's back in America! And he's charming as ever! Come along on a magical journey as we talk about the self-consciousness of pulp literature, European power conversion, and why you can appreciate nude bodies on an aesthetic level without being gay or lesbian or whatever.Major thanks to @nertlightened, then now and always@[email protected]

Goooooooooooood morning gang! Jeez, where did the last two months go? Beats me, but I decided to make up for lost time with friend, 'caster and overall man of culture @edwardodell, who dropped by for a chat. Come along on a magical journey as we talk about the end of an epoch (dead queen), the joy of convincing physicians that you're not crazy and a whole whack of other things. And yes, to properly pay our respects I busted out the sampler AND the FM unit.Major thanks to @edwardodell, be sure to listen to the Nice Pilled Podcast, wherever fine audio is distributed.@[email protected]

Gooooooooooooood morning and holy shit did a lot go down in the world this week. Don't worry, it wasn't all bad! Like how I got to sit down with probably my most esteemed mutual, journo extraordinaire @LauraJedeed to diagnose the last couple years in this nation, and to predict how it's all gonna shake out over the next few. And above all, Laura helps us all remember that there's a lot of current issues that can't be flattened into a character limit without losing a few of the details. Come along on a magical journey as we talk Civil War parallels, maintaining sanity amidst national chaos, and why it's reasonable to conclude that some folks have gotta be losing on purpose.Enormous and eternal thanks to @laurajedeed, realest of real oneswww.laurajedeed.com@vander_iam

Gooooooooooooooooooooood morning, and it's almost time to put the ol' girl in storage for the winter. But we're not quite there yet, we still have one more interview to get through. And who better to have than longtime friend, longtime collaborator and longtime source of deep concern Billy (@your_pal_billy)! And in true Billy fashion, we very quickly lose track of what's a bit and what isn't, but we roll with it anyway. Come along on a magical journey as we talk about respectful sex positions for vocal male feminists, the lost films of Stanley Kubrick, several reversals of fortune, and how to suss out the one true host of the Vander Jam.Many thanks to @your_pal_billy, many more thanks to @vander_iamI love you all more than you realize.

Goooooooooooooood morning! Okay, I lied, most of them haven't been lately. Weird time in the world, but usually those are the moments where making time for others matters most. And who better to make time for than series artist, podcaster and all around wunderkind Li'l Josh (@j0shberrill)! Come along on a magical journey as we talk thumb ratings vs numerical ratings, Eminem in a parking lot, and the art of selecting the perfect title. It was about midnight when we recorded this and there was truly magic in the air.Major thanks to Josh, then now and always - and listen to Reasonable Doubt on Google Podcasts.@[email protected]

Goooooooooooood morning, you beautiful bastards. Mayor remains in a chipper mood, sometimes it's just a matter of finding the RIGHT Paul Schraeder movie to fixate on - and the right guest to spend your time with! Today I'm joined by the amazing and mysterious Edward (@edwardodell), longtime pal and host of the wonderful Nicepilled Podcast, who freed up an evening to spitball with the mayor. Come along on a magical journey as we talk about further developments in the clout economy, the archaeology of shitposting, and above all, the absolute necessity to be authentic in one's dealings. Enormous thanks to @Edwardodell, make sure you tune in to NicepilledAnd enormous thanks to The Brain Company (@wholesaletruth) for the outtro!@vander_iamiamhowardvander @ gmail.com

Goooooooooooooooooooooood morning and goddammit I wish I could do more for the world. I can't, but I can do the things I can do, hence this new episode. And WHAT an episode it is! Making Jam history as I'm joined for my first ever dual interview with longtime friends and faves @nosleeptilltaco and @austinrocksface. Come along on a magical journey as we discuss strange doctors, buffet etiquette (or conversely, 'buffetiquette'), the extended Ambulance cinematic universe, and we play a game to discern whether true love is real. We also have killer show music from @wholesaletruth and The Brain Company that's well worth sticking around for.Enormous thanks to @nosleeptilltaco, @austinrocksface and @wholesaletruth@[email protected]

Gooooooooooooooooooooood emergency evening broadcast everyone, can't do much but I can lighten the mood, maybe, probably not, I'm trying anyway. And a task this herculean is too much for one mayor to bear, so I brought along my beloved moot @MercurialNotion to have a spot o' conversation. It was a good idea. Come along on a magical journey as we talk Goodman fashion, apocalyptic relatively, and the wrong way to be a vocal male feminist on the internet.Enormous thanks to @MercurialNotion@[email protected]

Goooooooooooooooood morning, but as they say in the biz, it's Monday night somewhere. It's the Vander Jam, and it's a special episode, because I'm sitting here live in studio with the real American Dream, one third of the team behind the 20 Years of Nitro podcast - the incredible Tim (@20yearsofnitro), proving once again that for a non-wrestling podcast, we sure talk about wrestling a lot.Come along on a magical journey as we discuss the how-tos of bedroom broadcasting, the unsung insights of Andy Kaufman, time and its penchant for getting away from us, and how to tell when a venture is doomed to fail.An overflowing amount of thanks to @20yearsofnitro, smash the follow and go listen to his show instead.@[email protected]

Goooooooooooooooooood....well, afternoon now. Guess who's back and brought some company along? I did. Me. The Mayor. And I'm joined live in studio (at the time of recording) by long-time pal and first time guest The Gigconomist (@thegigconomist) for a chat. Come along on a magical journey as we discuss neighborhood haunts, tourists and their insipid questions, and how the hustle mindset can easily result in chronic lumbar pain.Major thanks to @thegigconomist, major thanks to the Jam Nation.@[email protected]
