After a turkey/H1N1-enduced hiatus, Goodman and the gang return to discuss Tiger Woods and why you shouldn't sleep around with reality TV stars (and if you must, which ones are better than others), the latest dirt on the state of the Chronicle's second floor, the remarkeable similarities between Bill Walton and Santa Claus, and much more!
Nothing but shenanigans. We actually have listener submitted theme songs by the likes of Jason Snell and Rob from Palo Alto. Plus!!: Elvis Costello croons to Tim (by way of PPage, by way of a Question Boy impersonation). And much more...
When Question Boy and Benny are MIA for twenty minutes, Tim "Oh Great One" Goodman is left to chat with Durwood the intern about indie pop, the young demo's penchant for beards and all of QB's various shortcomings. Plus: Mrs. Question Boy calls to complain, Matt from Bethesda has a word or two and a discussion of Peggie Olson's real life romance.
Tim Goodman talks with Kurt Sutter the creator of "Sons of Anarchy," FX's groundbreaking drama about Northern California biker gangs. Though it includes lots of biker brawls and knife fights, a family drama runs right through the show's heart.
PPage and Jengo join Goodman et. al. for another lady-filled cast. Question Boy comes up with some new voices--Porno Arriana, Existential Dora, and more! There is much Mad Men pre-finale puffery.
Joined by very special guest question girls PPage and Jengo, Goodman and the gang pit V against Flashforward, bemoan the demise of SF's own Trauma, star in a scintillating listener's nighttime fantasy and eulogize the tragic retiremnt of the one and only Walton.
Goodman, Question Boy, Benny and Durwood discuss all sorts of high brow stuff, really share their favorite TV shows cancelled too soon, talk Aaron Sorkin's drug habits and receive a scintillating challenge from loyal listener Taldar.
Tim Goodman, joined by Question Boy, Benny and the rest, talks about old men playing soccer, French Existentialism and FX's The League. Plus, Daniel the Intern earns a new nickname from an annoyed caller and belittles Canadians!
Tim Goodman and the gang fill the podcave with talk of Jane Lynch as the vengeful cheerleading coach on Glee, the ongoing greatness of Mad Men, new shows like Flash Forward, as well as updates from frequent callers and commentators like Hanna from Sweden and Porno Nixon.
After two weeks of suspense, Goodman and the gang return triumphantly to the podcave for more antics from Walton, the Count, Porno Nixon and a new intern! Lots of good listener calls and talk about Jay Leno (Lame-no, as one listener suggests), the return of sitcoms and lots more.
