The unbelievably talented Maria Bamford is a hero to both of us, so we were all atwitter when we successfully blackmailed her into coming on the show. Listen in as we talk with Maria about new memoirs, small dogs, the ever-present allure of a career in library science, and turning suffering into art (and vice versa).
You may think you know Nina Hartley intimately, but did she come to your house and drink tea and talk about her childhood dreams? Not likely, suckah!

After a mortifying phone call during which Jillian confused Julien Nitzberg with her therapist (also named Julien), Jillian had to make fast friends with this punker-than-fuck writer and filmmaker, if only so he wouldn't reveal all her secrets.

The glamorous and hilarious Selene Luna came by to drink kombucha brewed by Jillian’s neighbor. I think it got us a little drunk because we definitely talked mad shit.

Patty Schemel, drummer of the band Hole and subject of the new documentary Hit So Hard, came by the studio last week and blew us away by being so funny, honest and just plain f-ing rock.

For our first episode, Thomas Jane showed up at my house with no shoes on and a sexy, surly attitude. We all got jacked-up on green tea lattes and spent a fascinating hour talking about comics, astronomy and Thomas’s early career as a Bollywood heartthrob, among other things.
