As a regular listener, sometimes I listen just for that first 15min if I don't care about the guest...

As someone who doesn't understand podcasts, could I interest you in a holiday meal with my family?

We have a ton of elderly folk and they will all be thrilled to tell you about all of their recent medical procedures. Colonoscopies are the tip of the iceberg!

I should tell them to start a podcast, apparently this is good material

This is kind of dark, but his life updates/intros after the death of Lynn Shelton was some of the most captivating podcasting I’ve ever heard. I love it when he gets vulnerable.

Me, too. Mark’s journey has been inspirational for me. I love to see how much he’s grown. He’s a cranky Buddha now.

Going through his grief cycle with him over the last 2 years really helped me with the loss of someone this last year.

That first episode he did after Lynn passed was so incredibly heartbreaking and emotional

Did you know he used to be an alcoholic that partied with Sam Kinison? Or that he was interviewed by Lorne Michaels to maybe replace Norm McDonald?

Because if you don’t know, he will tell you over and over and over.

Same, those Openers with Professor Doomburger helped with a lot with validations regarding my thoughts over 2020/2021.
