The phrase "I'm from Missouri on that" is derived from a speech given by Representative Willard Vandiver, in which he claims "I'm from Missouri; you have got to show me." implying that Missourians at the time had a reputation for being skeptical in the face of "frothy eloquence." Missouri still claims "The Show-Me State" as its nickname.

Episode 148 - Vampire's Kiss: LIVE!
EvanCarroll replied to JulyDiaz's topic in How Did This Get Made?
As mentioned by my friend Chris, whose sleepy response was cut from the recording, one could see this as a modern interpretation of the story of Renfield, a clinically insane character from Bram Stoker's Dracula. Renfield's story is told from the point of view of a psychologist at an asylum. He is utterly loyal to Dracula and, although he never becomes a vampire himself, he obsessively tabulates the number of organisms (mostly bugs) he consumes to know the life-force he believes he absorbs. At one point he also drinks blood spilled on the floor when he cuts Dr. Seward's arm. -
Episode 315 - Live from Houston @ Rec Room
EvanCarroll replied to JulyDiaz's topic in Sklarbro Country
Am I late to an inside joke or has Sklarbro Country been misspelled as "Sklarbro County" so many times that that is the joke? -
Episode 884 - From the DNC to Jennifer Murphy's Ninja song
EvanCarroll replied to JulyDiaz's topic in Yo, Is This Racist?
Amazing guest. It's so refreshing to listen to someone walk the "love will conquer all" walk. Sheaun should have his own podcast. -
Episode 1 - Sen. Al Franken: Inside Washington
EvanCarroll replied to JulyDiaz's topic in Katie Couric
Not off-putting, but as Brian said, there's really nothing surprising here; it didn't convince me that this is something I'll want to listen to weekly. And closing with a joke about ashtrays? What is this, the 90's? You get one more try, Ms. Couric. -
Episode 88 - Matt Gourley: Stockholm Syndrome with Dennis Palp
EvanCarroll replied to JulyDiaz's topic in With Special Guest Lauren Lapkus
The previous episode is currently being displayed on the homepage alternating marquee. -
Episode 110 - Eric Nuzum, Audible VP of Original Content
EvanCarroll replied to JulyDiaz's topic in The Wolf Den
That's some prophetic stuff from Nuzum regarding the separation of open spaces. -
Episode 883 - Current Trends Including Pokemon Go
EvanCarroll replied to JulyDiaz's topic in Yo, Is This Racist?
You can't close with "That shit [The Troubles in Ireland] would've been relevant 100 years ago." then immediately say "stop being ignorant." And the organizers of that white meetup with those footnotes are not woke! haha Altogether good ep, though; I hadn't considered the inherent risks involved with encouraging black people to walk around after hours. Thanks for bringing me some daily perspective (weekly now?) and I much prefer this new long format.- 1 reply

I assume Matt Gourley is the source PFT is looking for from Mr. Morris during the conversation about the adaptation by cats to sound like human babies. Mr. Gourley speaks to his cat, Margeaux the Fat Guy, about it in a special end-segment, I Was There Mew, on episode 13 of I Was There Too.

If that is what everyone really wants to go back to, then either a significant segment of the shows currently produced by Earwolf should be dropped or Wolfpop has to be resurrected to curate non-comedy shows like "The Wolf Den," "I Was There Too," "Question of the Day" etc.

It is likely true that very few current Earwolf listeners want this, but I assume that Earwolf sees this as a big, shiny lure for a more aged demographic and even people who don't currently listen to podcasts. I don't expect it to be anything that will outdo Radiolab, TAL, or Snap, but I'll give it a shot before I pass judgement.
