Katie Balloons, America's Favorite Balloon Girl, stops by the show to tell us about her passion and sing her theme song. Amazing.

Anupama Pillalamarri is not the tallest person.

Good show.

Daniel Knox opens and closes the show. If you've ever listened, you know he's my favorite. If you haven't, welcome. Daniel Knox is my favorite songwriter.

Chris MacDonald from IndieFeed is a swell guy.

Michael Foody is my favorite D.C. stand up comic.

Judson Claiborne is a fantastic Americana (I hope they don't mind that tag) band

Bee or cat?

Amanda Hess writes about sex and is about to say goodbye to DC. Kinda find out why.

Sarah thinks I could be a rapist.

The Sweater Set does a lot with a little. I am a big fan.

Marshall's used to have lay-away.

Chris Neary works on the super awesome podcast Freakonomics Radio and is an all-around good guy.

Jena Friedman knows how to appeal to the crowd. She's also really funny and you should see her whenever possible.

I am now a big fan of Lawrence and Leigh. You can and should download their EP from the link in the last sentence.

Fun times in Williamsburg.

Wyatt Cenac from "The Daily Show" has a new stand up special premiering on Comedy Central on May 14. You should watch it.

C.J. Toledano now writes for "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon." Rather than perform stand up, Wyatt joined us for a heart to heart. We all like "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air."

I attended the Family Values tour. I am not proud of this.

James VanOsdol is my favorite radio DJ and I think he had a good time. Success!

Chuck Sudo, editor in chief of Chicagoist, brought home made Grog on the show. We drank Grog. It was strong.

Dan Ronan is really funny and you should see him live.

Good Evening plays beautiful music. Good for intimate settings.

Trevor McSpadden from The Hoyle Brothers plays music throughout the show. I love Trevor and his band. See them every Friday at the Empty Bottle.

Fun show.

I was hung on a cross.

Amy Phillips is a very nice woman and the News Editor for Pitchfork. Music talk!

Prescott Tolk is headed to Los Angeles soon. See him in Chicago while you can.

Post Honeymoon is a great, loud two-piece. Listen to them be great and loud.
