In my interview with@Aasif, I learn how the Senior Muslim Correspondent of The Daily Show feels about being typecast as a Native-American Lesbian nosy neighbor type in Hollywood.

He may be known for being a correspondent on The Daily Show or winning an Obie for his one man show or starring in the films, but once you heart our second interview you’ll know why @aasif is really a lady slayer.

My dog Lady Parts made her debut music video. In fairness, she scored the role due to her good looks and, of course, luck. But the director did say she also seemed beautiful on the inside. Obviously, she is the one lying down. Fozzie, a grey mutt, is more of a character actor and he is seated stage left. Oh and the sapien at the piano is Bobby Genalo.

It was such a delight to interview the incredible Sloane Crosley. If you have not read her books, including “I Was Told There’d Be Cake” and “How Did You Get This Number” and “Up the Down Volcano,” now is the perfect time. (It will be even better timing wise ,if you listen to our interview) EMPLOYEE of the MONTH is talk show about dreamy jobs. Every month CATIE LAZARUS hosts this podcast, which is recorded live at Upright Citizens Brigade Theater.
Come see why NPR’s Marketplace, Time Out New York, New York Magazine, The New York Post, New York Observer and, of course, a Brazilian newspaper O Globo have written about the show. Employee of the Month may inspire you to start a second career, finish that novel, or self-medicate.

What’s a work crush called? I have one for Paul Marcarelli, best known as the “Verizon Guy.” The crush (not the amazing job) could happen to you. I’ll wager the “unrelated charges” on our cell phone bills.

I am on NPR's Marketplace discussing The Employee of the Month Show. Full disclosure, I didn't receive a tote bag. Fuller disclosure, I would have taken it even if was a conflict of interest.

If you’re interested in journalism, child prodigies and geniuses, game shows, or just the history of advertising, Mike Wallace interviewing my Godfather Lenny Ross is sure to offer something for everyone. Fine, anyone who fits in exactly those four niche demos. Here is their interview at The Daily Beast.

Impossible not to miss Mitch Hedberg. Enjoyed hearing his radio spots for Jimmy John’s sandwich shops. Thought you might too. They get better and better, just like Hedberg.

Korean BBQ and artisanal ice cream trucks are so 2011, DNA testing vans are what’s hot in #Brooklyn now. “Does he really have his father’s eyes?”
