Descend on chaos and uncertainty. Wonderful. Terrible. Irreverent. Irrelevant. Whatever it turns into, it’ll turn into something. This Is Going Well, I Think.
The show oscillates between frenzied comedy and confession-booth sincerity, blurring the lines between his personal relationships and on-air ones in a way both intimate and (arguably) intrusive. Think Car Talk, but not helpful at all.
New episodes five days a week. No promises. This show is a nightmare.

There are still normal people in the US

Always refreshing to listen to this. Restores the faith a little bit that there are still normal people who are not afraid to talk about things. Guess all the people in the US who are not afraid of swear words and naked feet are imports.
Cheers David ;)

This is not a podcast

It is a live streamed radio show that is converted to a podcast through the magic of science. It is very good and you can even buy a motorcycle from listening to the show.
