Holy cow, that Gallagher episode get's spirited right off the bat. "Where's MY reality show?". I kind of wonder the same thing; Gallagher and reality TV seems like a natural pairing.
No discussion of the PFT episode??? Shocking! I loved it. I've heard Sir Tompkins on many a podcast, and he's a fairly open book on a lot of them (C&EE, especially) but I found this one particularly enlightening and endearing for my own reasons.

And Howard was completely unavoidable for everyone in the NYC radio market when he was breaking out.I would always check him out if I could - does anyone remember his silly show on WOR?

Has anyone listened to the Kathleen Madigan episode? I'm checking it out now. She is one of my absolute favorites - she is incredibly funny and has been around since forever. Also want to listen to the Krassner ep ... I am over scheduled so I can't listen to 9/10 of the podcasts I have on my ipod.

I am over scheduled so I can't listen to 9/10 of the podcasts I have on my ipod.The Krassner episode was one of my least favorites. I still enjoyed it, but I guess I'm just not as interested in hearing stories about Lenny Bruce (whose comedy still doesn't make me laugh, no matter how important or subvervise he was), which is a big part of the conversation.I'm not at all familiar with Madigan's comedy, but I liked her episode.
Man, that Dino Stamatopolous episode couldn't end fast enough.
