This is not a regular episode of The Towel.
Spencer (Episode 4!) and I sit down and talk a lot of nonsense.
You're probably better off not listening.
But I've been told our conversations are good background noise when you're trying to sleep.

Dan is a great interviewer. He brings out the introspective, honest part of a person and makes it seem effortless. It’s a nice change of pace if you’re tired of shlock comedy podcasts where the host yuks it up to no end. Dan allows his guests to open up with surprising depth and grace.
I'm glad this podcast exists. Funny and insightful and entertaining all at once.
Highly enjoyable.
I think this is a fantastic pod. Depression warmed in the microwave for all. Highly entertaining stuff. I mean, if you think your day is bad, just listen to this and immedaitely feel better.
Yes, I was on the show but I'm telling you he's a fantastic interviewer. I'm probably a bad guest but he made the experience great. Cannot recommend highly enough.
I know what you're thinking...A podcast about a towel? Why would I listen to a podcast about a towel? Well don't worry. This podcast isn't really about a towel. It's about giving up on your dreams and who doesn't love an underdog story? Excellent Podcast.
Don’t throw in the towel on this show! These tales of failure help me feel better about myself and that’s the point…I think. Either way, the chats are lovely and engaging.
This is inspirational, thought provoking and at times, really freaking funny. I had no idea what I was getting into and ended up truly enjoying it. Great job!
I just spent my entire workout listening to this incredible podcast by Dan Hamamura and I didn't even get on the elyptical once because i was too busy laughing... and thinking. Value yourself and your decisions. And while you do that, listen to THE TOWEL.
