Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend

Jeff Fox joins us and then Daniel leaves us. But he comes back! I tried to take advantage of Burbank's robust vintage clothing options and it did not go well. Also I need to give an update on the estate sale/auction situation. We take some listener calls and I read some iTunes Comments of the Week. And we revisit our signature segment that we can never remember the name of.

Revisiting a very early episode this week! Original description: On the fourth episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend, actress, comedian, member of funny musical duo Garfunkel and Oates and fellow podcast host Riki Lindhome joins the show to talk about relationships, Valentine’s Day, the Nuvaring, the way you have to do fun stuff like go on trips and eat at nice restaurants even if you’re single, workaholism, setting boundaries, therapy, whether relationships make you less productive and the way Kinko’s doesn’t suck, which is nuts since everyone knows Kinko’s sucks. In fact as I sit here writing this I’m still baffled at the way an otherwise intelligent woman such as Riki Lindhome can insist Kinko’s is a pleasant place to go when it’s pretty much the opposite of a pleasant place to go. Have I mentioned I hate Kinko’s? God, I hate it. But Riki doesn’t.

Taylor Williamson and his chick magnet Betty are here and Betty hobnobbed with some famous celebs at a party recently. We all have a lot of HGFYs to share and Jeff Fox and I recall the whole Kevin Smith/Adam Carolla incident. Specifically we recall Smith's use of a certain word but we each interpret it differently. Daniel and I went to the Jackalope Art Fair over the weekend and I meant some miners. Taylor has A LOT to say about something that happened before the show and we did a round of Podcast Pals Product Picks.

Daniel has already watched his whole life come and go based on a theory I can barely follow. I need to issue a pet update and also explain how it is a tiny turtle has come into our life.
