I already know my list is gonna change because there were just too damn many great episodes! But here's where I am at this moment in time: Ep #259 - Charlotte's Website (David Alan Grier, Lauren Lapkus & Joe Wengert) Lauren Lapkus is always fantastic but she really blew me away on this one. Add David Alan Grier and Joe W... it had to go on the list. Ep #262 - 2013 Holiday Spectacular (Nick Lowe, Jason Mantzoukas, Andy Daly, Paul F. Tompkins, James Adomian, Jon Daly, Neil Campbell, Paul Rust & Paul Scheer) So. much. Awesome. Ep #265 - LIVE from RIOT LA (Paul F. Tompkins, Lauren Lapkus & Harris Wittels) There's always something cool about the live shows. Audience response can rally add another element. This one was my favourite. Ep #267 - That Wasn't It (I'm Back) [Hee Hee] (Jerrod Carmichael, Neil Campbell & Mookie Blaiklock) Mookie's Micheal Jackson just cracks me up. Ep #274 - Oh, Golly! (Jason Mantzoukas, Andy Daly) Mantzoukas and Daley. Had to be on here. And I chose this particular one because Mantzoukas claiming it was already one of the worst after only minutes in is priceless on its own. Ep #280 - DuALity ("Weird Al" Yankovic, Paul F. Tompkins) Weird Al. Alan Thicke. As a Canadian and a Weird Al fan, I am legally obligated to love this one. I would even if that weren't the case though. Ep #289 - The Exorcism of Cake Boss (Paul F. Tompkins, Matt Gourley) Can you ever have enough PFT? The answer is NO. This added to the Cake Boss mythos. Ep #313 - Gumbo Challenge (Ben Schwartz, Horatio Sanz & Paul Banks) This one was so insane, I adore it! Ep #319 - Return to Suicide House Part Gore (Brett Gelman, Jon Daly, Allan McLeod, Nick Wiger & Caroline Anderson) Full disclosure: I'm not always a big Suicide House fan. But this year, it just clicked for me and everyone knocked it out of the park. Ep #321 - Big Fat Voice (Ana Gasteyer, Jon Gabrus & Mookie Blaiklock) A very recent episode to be sure. But I had to acknowledge the amazing Gino somewhere. Ana is such a fantastic performer. And how many podcasts have a live arrest happen during recording?

I admit it; I thought it was going to be a fart joke. Kudos for taking the high road, sir!

I put my norgflargs on one tentacle at a time.

Even the TRAILER sounds painful!

Only JUST finished this episode this morning! (Stupid working to earn a living getting int he way of my podcast listening!) Just so much great stuff in this one! Agree with everyone about how quick Gabrus is! Gino is a definite favourite character of mine! But there's lots to love in this one including the first on-air podcast arrest! And I love how Ana and Scott were just so genuinely having fun with it all. That's how I measure these things; if everyone is having fun and laughing, the odds are I am too.

We want you to come home. All is forgiven.

It's like you read my birthday card from back then!

because the sex change operation was a complete success!

It's more of a question isn't it: And...Drew?

Don't inhale.

I don't want to make a rash decision.

Because a leopard can't change its Spocks.

Now imagine how impressive it would be if I knew what card you picked!

And that's how I became a PBS funder.

The corporations or Bill Cosby.

In defence of Dreama, I understand her confusion. From what I understand, some of the tiny butts she shot were indeed bare.

I'll be honest; never been a Dane Cook fan. But I have to say, listening to him on this show made me at least appreciate the fact that he's committed to what he does, committed to evolving,and trying new directions. I may not like every comedian but I can still appreciate their passion for what they do. So good on ya, Dane Cook!

...unless you're a terrible speller.

After the sex change operation, it's MISTER Ellaneous, thank you very much.

the more difficult it is to buy clothes at a regular retail store.

Genius!

I love it! A fine choice!
