BIG SHOW DAY! UNCLE BERTIE IS HERE!! The Mysterious Secrets Of Uncle Bertie's Botanarium is an epic, richly sound-designed comedy adventure, created by a truly unique trio of writer/director Duncan Sarkies, musician Lawrence Arabia, and artist Stephen Templer. This Howl Original 12-part mini-series stars Jemaine Clement (Flight Of The Conchords) and an ensemble of creative friends from Wellington, New Zealand. Travel back to 1768, when the Fortitude sailed from the famous port of Damprot, the Jewel of the Gravy Isles. The ship, commandeered by Lord Joseph Banks--nephew of the infamous botanist Bertie Banks--was on a mission to find a plant known to be the very source of pleasure in the world: Heaven's Clover. This is the tale of that fateful journey. And in case you missed it, there is now a Howl forum right here on The Earwolf Forums! Post and Comment away!

Matt Besser and Matt Walsh grill an audience member on his Great Gatsby shirt. Later, they’ll quiz the crowd on which classic books they’ve all read, what celebrity they’d like to receive fellatio from, and what “on fleek” actually means Here on Howl

We probably will in the future! I was asked to make a poll so I did, but now there are second thoughts on polls. I know Amy likes y'alls long answers a lot, so there probably won't be a poll like this next week. Just the many paragraphs of opinions. Thanks for your patience with the switch to Earwolf, I'll get the hang of it. Sorry.

I WAS AT THIS ONE! I WAS AT THIS ONE! it was truly magical.

Official poll is up guys: http://forum.earwolf.com/topic/31435-poll-should-antichrist-be-in-the-canon/ Sorry for the delay! We've got Devin and Amy accounts for the forums and we will work out a system going forward for the poll to post earlier. Thanks for sticking through the changes everyone!

Phil Rosenthal, creator of “Everybody Loves Raymond” and the new PBS series “I’ll Have What Phil’s Having” joins Leonard this week to discuss Woody Allen’s Broadway Danny Rose: a hilarious film that showcases the low end of New York show business.

We will eventually have the back catalog hosted here on Earwolf and in the Howl app, but it may take a few more weeks.

Devin & Amy open up a box of questionable chocolate and see what's really inside the landmark film Forrest Gump. Do the revolutionary computer effects automatically enter the film into the canon? Does director Robert Zemeckis hate humans? Is this the Buzzfeed of 1994? Tune in for the battle -- and head to the forums on Wolfpop to cast the deciding vote!

oh sweet lord... that movie is very important for many reasons. That scene where he's running with the horses at the fancy party? get out of here

Fixed.

We are going to do everything we can to get the old forums here. But since they are on completely different operating systems, it may be extremely difficult, and possibly impossible. But they are trying really hard. But The Canon definitely lives on Earwolf from now on and the forums do too. So please feel free to start any new discussion threads that you want!

Here's a tiny trip behind the scenes at Earwolf, courtesy of my phone...

To celebrate, Nate does what the show set out to do: read aloud. First, from Robert Evans' memoir "The Kid Stays in the Picture".

Be sure to pick up Ernest Hemingway's "A Farewell to Arms", and join us for the next book club!

The final chapter in the Spielberg Saga is here as Sean Frye joins Matt to talk about playing Steve, Elliot's older brother's friend in E.T. The Extra Terrestrial. Sean shares some great insight on all of the scenes from the film as well as what it was like working with Henry Thomas, E.T. himself, and going over to Harrison Ford's house. Plus, Matt gets a little crabby as he counts down his Top 10 List of Things That Happen in Movies That Never Happen in Real Life.

1 phone call. 1 hour. No names. No holds barred.

Every week, Chris opens the phone line to one anonymous caller—and he can’t hang up first, no matter what. From shocking confessions and family secrets to philosophical discussions and shameless self-promotion, anything can and will happen!
