The podcast that's 40 years in the making, because they're both procrastinators. Comedy writer Tom Saunders and political comedian Scott Blakeman help you navigate The New Normal, which is The Old Normal for them, since their comedy careers already require that they spend huge amounts of time at home. Their show peers back into the past, stares unflinchingly at the present, and imagines a more hopeful future, with flights of fancy and many tangents as well.

    episode 801

    A possibly historic SNAFU resulted in the 800th episode of GTT turning out to be episode 801! But if that weren't shocking enough, in an important and serious twist we imagine the world leaders gathering in Tom's Fiancee Sandy's 9 bedroom bed and breakfast in the Catskill Mountains and working out their differences over one historic weekend. But would Putin be happy with the "Gazebo Room?" or would he still complain? More questions than answers, but still lots of shocking answers.

    We're back! The historic four week long blackout of our podcast due to technical difficulties has finally ended. And in the returning episode we reveal the folly of lamenting something that never happened.

    episode 797

    Scott is back from Italy, and describes how he decided against doing the podcast entirely in Italian since he doesn't know more than a handful of Italian phrases. This turned into a spirited ongoing conversation about whether travel stories need to be primarily about travel mishaps and disasters, and if so, does jet lag count? Jet lag as an excuse for extreme or even criminal behavior is discussed, and as always our discussion results in a workable solution to a problem no one else is talking about for which we should receive a Nobel Prize.

    Tom made a visit to New York by his nephew, nieceand grand niece by describing cohost Scott as Italian royalty, even though he isn't Italian or royal.

    episode 795

    Scott is a modern day jet setter, suavely performing on a podcast by day, jetting off to Italy with his lady friend by night. Yet, weighing on him is the unfinished business of a storage unit in Brooklyn. Obviously this led to a time-travel enabled 1960s style movie half in color depicting Scott's swinging flight to Italy and the other half a black and white 1950s Italian neorelist movie grimly forcing us to look at the Scott's struggle to empty a bleak storage unit.

    episode 793

    A recent dinner results in no acts of heroism, which Scott recalls in an intro that explores acts of non-heroism. The intro is positive and pleasant that Tom imagines it could shock a huge auditorium of a well-dressed podcast audience into complete quietude. But what happens next will even warm the hearts of the congenitally cynical.

    episode 792

    Tom struggles with a new identity: hero. For driving his fiancee and friends to, around and back from the Catskills he is amply lauded by his grateful passengers . But will random strangers find out about his heroism and expect him to perform heroic acts at their beck and call and whim? "you'd be a REAL hero if you drove our toddler to school while my husband and I have breakfast in bed" Yikes!
