Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone
Join Paula Poundstone, co-host Adam Felber and a long list of characters, real and imaginary, on Nobody Listens To Paula Poundstone, a podcast taking the fun of a late-night show, the wit of a public radio show, and the knowledge of a guest expert while setting the volume to the max. Acerbic yet infectiously funny, Nobody Listens To Paula Poundstone invites listeners into the audience of this absolutely ludicrous variety show, if they can follow along…or not.

Our favorite guest returns, this time to fill us in on which big cats will kill you outright, which will drag you up a tree, and which you can possibly walk on a leash down Hollywood Boulevard (note: don’t do that!). And then we set sail for more parts unknown- it’s the return of “Land Ho! with Toni Anita Hull.”

Shannah Game returns, and she’s here to help us improve our relationship with money.
