This week Silvija Ozols joins Adam and Ramsey to talk about FISH! There's an awful lot of talk about different ways to prepare fish, and also some racist comments are made about the species. If you are offended, we apologize, but mostly we are interested in determining how you, as a fish, learned how to listen to a podcast. (sorry)

Okay, so if you're a fan of "Wonderful, Thanks" you're going to like this show because it is an episode of that. However, if you don't like "Wonderful, Thanks," then you are in luck, because this episode is different from any other one we've done. This week, Mike Sacks, author of "And Here's the Kicker," "Your Wildest Dreams, Within Reason," and co-author of "Sex: Our Bodies, Our Junk," joins Adam and Ramsey to talk about AUTHORITY. But instead of that, you get to hear all about Mike's very long and very storied career and you get introduced to a new game! Come solve some of Hollywood's greatest mysteries with us on this exciting new episode!

This week, Adam and Ramsey give big ups to their guest D'Arcy Carden! Together, the three of them discuss all that glitters that is gold! Plus, we play an all new game, never to be repeated, and we give tips on picking out an engagement ring for your significant other. You couldn't buy a better episode, unless this is the future and we're charging for our podcast, in which case you can buy it, and it is this show. I just genuinely confused myself.

This week, "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" writer Justin Shanes joins Adam and Ramsey to talk about coffee: a drink that none of the panelists particularly enjoy. Listen as they make connections to the gross liquid, pretend like they know the answers to a variety of questions and impersonate all of your favorite stars of public radio. You'll love it!

Today we have the super talented and crazy funny Brandon Scott Jones on the podcast to talk about the word "fire!" If you're an enemy of our guest, this would be a great episode to start with in order to find about the things he's frightened of as well as a variety of other topics, until ultimately, you're charmed by him and you forget why you were enemies in the first place. It's a Win/Win, like in that movie, "50/50!"
