Let's Talk Ten

Dan Fisher and his guests come up with Top Ten lists relating to pop culture --Movies/TV/Music/Etc. -- and then they compare notes.  "Winning" arguments over what's the "best" is never the point.  It's just people talking about the stuff they love and why they love it.  Sometimes the conversation is silly, sometimes it's deeply personal -- as long as it's entertaining, it goes where it goes.Each "Let's Talk Ten" will cover a fresh topic (horror movies, debut albums, TV kids' shows) with a different guest.  There are no scripts and lists are not shared beforehand.  Episodes will drop every two weeks, on Mondays.
