Jordan, Jesse GO!
What is the dumbest show you can imagine? This award-winning show may be dumber. It has no content. No format. Yet it's going on ten years of delighting hundreds of thousands of people. It's been an iTunes editors choice, and Rolling Stone picked it as one of the world's best comedy podcasts. It's light in the dark, comfort in the cold and a penguin in the pants (long story). Join hosts Jesse Thorn (NPR's Bullseye) and Jordan Morris (Comedy Central's @Midnight) and a celebrity guest on a raucous, vulgar and warm-hearted romp that will probably leave you a better person. And will certainly make you dumber.

Comedian and filmmaker Hari Kondabolu is our guest on the program this week and they get into Jesse's journey on the road to loving mangoes, the power of Hari's Twitter feed to make history, and Jordan's involvement in a playlist battle between a Weezer fan and a Dave Matthews Band fan. Plus, Hari talks about his new Netflix special, Warn Your Relatives and his very public struggle with The Simpsons.

Alison Rosen joins Jordan and Jesse as they "candy up" and get into a discussion of Alison's son's media diet, the similarities of Jesse's baby Curtis to an afro-haitian dancer, and how the title of Alison's new book (Tropical Attire Encouraged (and Other Phrases That Scare Me)) was inspired by a party thrown by Maria Menounos. Plus, Jordan has both a new dresser and a pet dilemma and a momentous occasion call helps remind everyone that there is still some magic in the world.

Bill Corbett joins the guys as Jordan recovers from shrimp overload after eating a delicious and giant shrimp po' boy sandwich for lunch and they get into the positive effect of Guy Fieri, the non-Halloween recreational usage of dry ice, and a Jesse explains how his family is handling "holiday monsters" like the Tooth Fairy and Santa.  Plus, everyone goes deep on a shrimp hypothetical and Dr. Anus comes around to put a camera up everyone's butt.
