  • Hilarious- great entertainment

    These are hilarious people. Start with a Ike Barenholtz episode- you won’t be sorry. Note: skip Jessica Saint-James to start with (a lot of screaming).

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Perfect Stranger LIVE! (Classic)
Q: When did Halle Berry's character's mother and the child dig the deep grave in the backyard?
The hosts point out that digging a deep grave in winter would be difficult and joke that the movie never credibly explains how a mother and young child managed it.
Perfect Stranger LIVE! (Classic)
Q: Why does Grace's comment trigger Halle Berry's character to murder her?
The hosts reason that Grace knew about the childhood murder of Halle Berry's father and may have been using that secret to pressure her, though they question whether the film establishes a clear threat.
The Devil's Advocate LIVE! w/ Julie Klausner (Re-Release)
Q: Does Al Pacino have Keanu Reeves in some kind of crazy loop until he makes the Antichrist for him?
The hosts agree that the reporter's appearance as Milton suggests the devil may keep testing Kevin in an internal loop until he gives in.
The Devil's Advocate LIVE! w/ Julie Klausner (Re-Release)
Q: They set Al Pacino up as being so wealthy. I think we see him with his own town car. Why is he always on the subway?
The hosts offer competing explanations: one says Milton wants to be underground because that is where hell is, while another recalls that Milton calls the subway the fastest way to get around New York.
Last Looks: The Lair of the White Worm
Q: The flute that June mentions, it's actually called a pungy. But the thing is that redders are deaf to airbone instruments. So music shouldn't be affecting her ladyship at all.
Paul Scheer confirms that snakes cannot hear music played by a snake charmer and explains that they track the instrument visually and sense ground vibrations.
