TBTL: Too Beautiful To Live

Jen reports in from a divey trailer park near Yosemite, Luke has a new favorite crazy person to follow on twitter, plus! Sage advice on not being a sweaty pig (from Luke, who's often called 'a sweaty pig' by other people).

HUNGRY FOR THE CHICKEN!! KFC's free grilled chicken promo reminds Vanessa of the worst date Luke ever took her on, someone's poisoning the coffee at Harvard (that's why you went to community college thank you very much) and Luke's had enough of the ironic embrace of zombie culture.

Luke's world is rocked when a fellow Naked Coffee-Maker is charged with indecent exposure, Pagota the cat shows herself to be a major Attention Ho as she interrupts the show multiple times, and audio tape of a CNN anchor committing the most racist-seeming gaff ever during an interview w/ Jesse Jackson.

Vanessa barely survives her run in with a (probably) Mass Murderer Raccoon @ Burbank Studios, Maddy Brand of NPR fame sits in on Awesome/ Not/Awesome and the secret sadness of being Kenny Rogers.

Technical issues and the delay of an interview send Luke's insecurities bubbling to the surface. Meanwhile, Sean tries to use the power of Hip Hop to convince Luke of Steely Dan's awesomeness.

Luke debuts a new audio disclaimer for when things get racy, Vanessa subsequently gets racy with a story about her youth and a creepo in a Datsun, plus Ben Hoffman, Pro Triathlete talks about The Iron Man World Championship, which he just finished.

Now In High Fidelity! Jen discusses the dream vacation she's about to take, Obama get the Nobel Prize, and Luke finally has enough money for shoes. Clearly it's really working out for everybody.

WTF's Marc Maron on why trying to get hired at E! felt like the bowels of hell. Plus, the story of his big TV commercial break (which ended in a small child from Texas weeping uncontrollably).

Tracy Morgan, please start tweeting (maybe), sure-fire hangover cure from a listener, and Michael W. Smith!

David Letterman exposed as a robot? Law & Order takes on the 'hipster grifter? Hot dogs down hallways? All will be revealed on today's TBTL.

Anthony Bourdain talks about his crack smoking days and why everyone in the city Baltimore hates him, Luke apologizes for his Friday Night Antics @ the listener party, and Josh Sacco, the cutest little Kurt Russell-impersonator ever.

Gay Talese on Sinatra, Journalism and how the NYT used to be staffed by total drunks, Vanessa abandons Luke at when he gets into it with a neighbor, and Randy Quaid's wife takes the express train to crazytown.

Luke doesn't care about your imaginary facebook mafia war or petting zoo, Vanessa thinks Luke is a bad person for not eating fruit.

Survivor's Jeff Probst on Trump's hair, being pals with Ryan Seacrest, and what he doesn't love about Survivor. Also, Marina Zenovich talks about Roman Polanski and her film 'Roman Polanski, Wanted and Desired'. Plus! A small child plays Johnny Cash and hearts melt.

Michael Ian Black breaks his silence on his wife's Lobster Hands, a TBTL PSA on what not to tell Oprah about the time you and your dad had sex, and did Jenny Slate have the worst SNL debut ever?

Pomplamoose! In (maybe) some kind of World Exclusive Thingy! Chatting and playing a tune for us live from their studio in Northern Cal via Skype Video. Plus, we debut a new segment ('Drag Me To Freaking Hell'), and Jen learns the hard truth about the mysterious Burt Wurley.

Glenn Beck boils a frog on live TV (and wins our first ever 'Waste of Skin' award), Mike Pesca counsels Luke on how to stop obsessing over TBTL's iTunes ranking, and Eli Sanders from The Stranger tells a story of a murder that didn't have to happen.

The New York Times' Rob Walker talks about making crap into valuable crap by just adding words, Vanessa busts Luke on his deep-seated need for approval, and TBTL Call-Makers: What Up with so many Vampires?

Luke's shameful spandex problem, Hot Greg goes on a mission to seduce the guy from 'Twilight', and Will Ferrell does the unthinkable...

Our first show from Luke's house! Adam Carolla makes an appearance and sends Jen into fits. Plus, Kanye Kanye Kanye Kanye. Seriously dude, not cool.

Final radio show - Hour 2

What can we say? It was our last radio show, which naturally meant drinking, crying, karaoke, and a host in his skivvies on the web cam.
