It is time for yet another minisode. Are you ready to learn what your movie assignment for the week is? Well this week's movie is, drum roll please...........you didn't think I'd just TELL you, did you?

Guess what time of year it is? We're only a few mere weeks away from SUMMAH! Prepare yourself with Howard's Summah Thoughts that range from introspective to instructional as you prepare for the finest season of all! Kulap is bringing back the Wie-k in Re-Ku with a heck of a spiritual encounter. Please, be careful with your tweeting!

The Apple Sisters are back from break and promoting their new record '1943'. It's a masterpiece you aren't going to want to miss, but in the mean time, the Apple Sister's have a special April Fool's program for you!

If there's something strange in your neighborhood, who you gonna call? Professor Blastoff! Tig, Kyle and David welcome Mike Wiebe from The Riverboat Gamblers to talk about g-g-g-ghosts and the otherwise occult. Ouija boards are discussed, as are UFOs, John Edward and hot dogs. Even seemingly sane people have seen and experienced ghosts so don't be too scared to listen. Keep your ears open for the crying of ghost babies and the jingling of ghost cheeses.

What would you do if I sang out of tune? I'd tell you to shut up because we have actor and director Fred Savage on the show and he's giving us secrets and scoops from the set of The Wonder Years as well as NBC's Best Friends Forever, which he directed. We've also invited a couple of Fred's fans to join us, Pam and Len Bicell, who treat us to some sensual fan-fiction and an equally sensual round of Would You Rather?! Now make like Fred Savage and vote for Comedy Bang Bang in The Comedy Awards!

Jon Daly is back with a vengeance! Rafflecast is back and is bringing you more sketches, impressions, songs, and celebrity guests like Rob Huebel! Wake up from your NPR induced nap, tell those shock jocks to shut the fuck up, and spend an hour with the greatest innovator in the history of spoken word entertainment, Jon Daly!

Are you prepared for the healing power of improv? This week's bonus cut features Katie Dippold, Chris Kula, and Billy Merritt experiencing life-and-death miracles of pale skin and evil breath.

Given Howard's affinity for reds, we were more than happy to have Julie Klausner bring her New York hipness and Jewish nerdyness to Who Charted? for a look at the Billboard Heatseekers Chart and Movie Chart. We know she doesn't care about your band, but what are her thoughts on Steven Seagal movies, Julia Roberts career resurgence, and Mindy Cohn's fighting ability? Julie also treats us to a round of Chart Darts with bonus insight into her auburn brethren. We'll see all you Bridgetown Chartists in Portland this Saturday at 3 PM at the Bagdad Theater!

It's been quite a while since we've checked in with our friend Natasha Leggero. We were thrilled to have her back on the show this week to learn about J-Pop sensation Nicki Minaj in the Music Chart, get a sight-unseen review of Chimpanzee in the Movie Chart, and play a round of N.L.-themed Chart Piñata. Natasha dishes dirt on David Bowie and we get a peek into the Kremer family history and possibly the greatest candy innovation known to man. Until next time, keep thumbping!

Bootcut, flare, acid wash, we're talking about them all today! GENES! Dr. Alex Platt is back once more and explaining how we as individuals came to be, why we came out the way we did, and what was up with Mendel's pea plants. Invite your dominant AND recessive genes to listen!

Put on your coochie cutters and take out your contacts because it's time for TWO CHARTED! Kulap is back once more with her amazingly titled Wie-k in Re-Ku and what a week it was! Howard also had a pretty great week that you'll learn about with his Hanging with Stand-Ups chart. Get up close and personal with your favorite hosts optometrist-style this week on Two Charted!

You know how much we love lady energy here on the calming shores! We've got one of the best this week with stand-up comedian and Parks and Recreation writer Chelsea Peretti. She talks of maggots and Fleas and tells us how she learned to love the NBA. We're also getting Gumble-y this week with yet another call from Bryant Gumble (in addition to a creepy voicemail from NPR's Robert Siegel). Plus, get to know animator John Mathot who designed our beautiful new Sklarbro Country t-shirts. Pick up a shirt and punch a waterfall!

From the war on women to the Toni Basil vs. Kreayshawn, you're in for a real battle here on Two Charted! In one corner, Howard with his Fan Interactions of the Week. His challenger? Kulap Vilaysack with her pun-tastic Week in Wie-Ku. Rocky makes a new friend, Howard gets high and does stand-up, Sloppy Timmy makes his triumphant return, and most importantly, you get more charts in your life! Yippie!

We all know Rob Delaney as the Public Enemy of Twitter. Today you'll meet the man behind the offensive speedo profile picture, from his love of pregnant women to his relationship with Jared Leto. The Music Chart introduces us to his unfortunate photography story, and the Movie Chart offers up some more "Sight Unseen" movie reviews. I know for sure that Rob has found a new fan in Hermes the Chart Goose. Listen in, we promise it isn't just Rob reading tweets for an hour!

Put down that Cookie Crisp and listen to improv4humans! While we couldn't afford to get Lindsay Lohan on the show, we were able to track down Sean Clements, Dominic Dierkes, and Horatio Sanz who join Matt Besser for a game of college basketball, a trip to a parent-teacher conference, and a snack at the most passive-aggressive restaurant you've ever been to. Be sure to pick up an improv4humans shirt from the Earwolf Store and follow @MattBesser on Twitter to send in your improv suggestions. Music by Bobby Matthews and Dragoon.

This week's Comedy Bang Bang is perfect for all our ambitious listeners looking to make their dreams come true. Hear how director Ruben Fleischer created a career in comedy which has afforded him the chance to meet his idols. Be inspired by Ultimate Frisbee Advocate Sam Darling who has never let his dreams of playing the game fall to the wayside. Not every story has a happy ending though, like the infamous story of David Cross trying to play basketball with Bob Odenkirk. However, if you have dreamed of an episode with Would You Rather?, Hollywood Facts, AND a plane break, I think you'll feel satisfied once all is said and done.

Did you think that we were done discussing perception? You must have perceived wrong! Myq Kaplan is sticking around for more discussion on religious extremism, the power of mushrooms, and seeing the world through a child's eyes. Plus, we have Kyle's mother on the phone! Or DO we? Is it just an illusion? I suppose we'll never know.

We got the real WTF treatment this week. Ronna and Bev got to visit Marc Maron in the cat ranch and turn the tables on the popular podcast host. The ladies came just in the nick of time to help Marc out with his relationship woes.

This week on Who Charted? Bob Ducca leaves his hemorrhoid pillow and we get to meet the man behind the ex-stepfather, Seth Morris. Seth is the ultimate sport as we check out The Ultimate Chart for music, quizzes, and sexy rodents. We get into the Movie Chart, but more importantly, we see a glimpse into Howard's teenage years before launching into a game of Chart Piñata celebrating the Top Hollywood Projects (no, MANswers didn't make the cut). You can hear all of this, AND a movie pitch that will send 21 Jump Street home crying, on Who Charted?!

Why go to a boring dunk contest or drive through a lame game reserve when you can listen to improv? This week's guests on improv4humans are the hilarious and talented Chad Carter, Lennon Parham, and Tim Meadows. It is more fun than summer camp, more fulfilling than a high-five, and more sexually rewarding than 1,003 kisses. Be sure to pick up an improv4humans shirt from the Earwolf Store and follow @MattBesser on Twitter to send in your improv suggestions. Music by Bobby Matthews and Dragoon.

Just because Paul is hard at work down in New Orleans doesn't mean we can't make time to watch a shitty movie. And trust us, this week's movie is one of the shittiest. We're finally tackling one of our most highly requested movies, so prepare yourself and we'll see you next week!

If you were googling and thought you'd found a podcast with golfer John Daly, you're in for a surprise. A great one, because you're getting Cracked Out's own Jon Daly, the comedian and rapper whose characters you love! Jon gets honest with us about anti-depressants and plastic surgery, as well as his death defying college indiscretions. He will make you see Garden State and Lance Armstrong in a whole new light. Enjoy!

Andy Kindler and charts: Does a finer duo exist? The fabulous Mr. Kindler returns to once again delve into the world of movies and pop music (courtesy of iTunes US Singles). We get Andy's thoughts on Gaga and puns on The Debt before rolling into a game of Chart Roulette. Try to navigate the line between sincerity and hilarity as Andy excitedly dances and sings his way through the chart theme songs, movie trailers, and more. Plus, we announce the winner of the Heal With My Steel video contest! Listen in, pick up a Who Charted? tee shirt from the Earwolf store, and "if you wanna groove, groove."

Most Earwolf listeners know that Jason Mantzoukas loves bad movies. Did you know that he also loves Math Rock, studied ethnomusicology abroad, and can be killed by an omelette? America’s favorite minority actor joins us this week on Who Charted? for a look at the iTunes Hip Hop Singles Chart, the Movie Chart, and a rousing round of Chart Darts. Not often do we discuss both dog rescue and nuclear holocaust preparedness in one podcast, but we cover both with plenty of time for Jason to pitch a perfect historical fiction film for Howard. Keep tuning in as Who Charted? becomes bi-weekly and listen in for exclusive details on Who Charted? LIVE in Vancouver!

The guys from Sentimental Lady were so phenomenal on the podcast, we didn't have time to include all the great stuff they did. So here we are once again with an improv4humans bonus cut featuring Mel Cowan, Alex Fernie, and Johnny Meeks. What exactly is a construction consultant? Who knows?!
