  • Just Inside Baseball Enough to Score

    You don’t have to live or work in Hollywood for this to be wildly entertaining, but it doesn’t hurt. And it reminds me not to be so pleased with myself when I come up with a good story idea, because the guest contestants create nine decent movie pitches off the top of their heads every week.

  • Loved Wild, why are they reusing the feed

    I loved Wild, but why did they put Nobody Knows Anything in this feed? It’s a completely unrelated podcast, not remotely similar, so it’s not like you could imagine someone who enjoyed Wild would also enjoy a game show about celebrities (????). I will be unsubscribing, I left it subscribed in the hopes that more Wild would eventually be made.
