  • Blow your nose

    The host sniffs and swallows his snot into the mic rather than muting and blowing it. Very gross.

    The one star reviews without a written review are from Armenian hating Turks and Azeris. This is a good podcast from a bright and curious man. Thanks

  • Always A Great Adventure

    The Armenian really does have adventures. He doesn’t just sit around waiting for people to come to him. He goes to them and lives in their world. Not only do we get a great conversation but he brings all that he experiences in his travels to us. It’s like a movie for ears only

  • The Strange Death of Cinema

    FAA is like an evolution of the original Brett Easton Ellis podcast. It’s a love letter, and obituary to cinema. It’s almost a detective story an existential murder mystery an LA noir with the Armenian as our tragic detective. I cannot get enough!
