Title: I did an epic 45 min interview with Tom on my podcast Cosmic Castoff!
Post by: Cosmic Castoff on December 29, 2014, 02:57:02 PM: Hello everyone! First of all, thank you for checking this out if you are so inclined.

I did an epic interview with Tom on the latest episode of my podcast.. Not trying to spam anyone! I just am really proud of this interview and I think fans of Tom and The Best Show will really enjoy it. Having listened to all of his other podcast appearances (which were great, I discovered a LOT of new great podcasts) I can assure this one is unique among them, and full of hilarious Tom moments. It was so amazing to interview the guy who inspired me to even do my podcast, and I hope you all like it!

Heads up: the show is a comedy disguised as a paranormal talk show, taking place in a largely fictional world so don't take it seriously or try to make toooo much sense out of it!

Colin engages with Tom while still doling out important return-of-Best-Show info, and still does HIS show. I'd like to see more interviews like this where, yes the Best Show is back and there may be some people who can't find it/there are new listeners potentially jumping on board, but if you don't play a little topic T-ball with Tom you're wasting your time man. Tom sounds relaxed during the interview and Colin represents well as a FOT. Great Job!

Its also fun to have "Ride My See Saw" as bed music and then hear Tom. I wonder if Art Bell would ever call The Best Show?

Also, who is Jane?

"Did you say Bolstered?"

Post by: Kal_El on January 06, 2015, 10:09:22 AM: Yeah, I probably won't continue listening just because I have no interest in the paranormal but it was honestly a good interview.

Granted, along with Marc Maron and David Sedaris, Tom is one of a handful of people who has never given a bad interview but...

You should totally be proud. I enjoyed that interview!

Post by: Cosmic Castoff on January 06, 2015, 11:56:57 AM: Hey guys! Thanks for the feedback and thank you for listening! This was a great experience and I am so happy fellow FoT's are into it.

I wanted to note: the way we handle the paranormal on this episode is the way we ALWAYS handle it.. It's just an excuse for silliness, it's totally 100% a comedy show, NOT a real paranormal show. I don't even believe in the paranormal hahah.
