The marquee one works the best because it'd make you look like the most insane person.

Howard Kremer had a funny story on Two Charted about a party at Sarah Silverman's house this month. It wasn't just comedians but huge a-list actors/directors, so she put up a sign on the front door that said: NO PODCAST GUEST SOLICITATIONS.

For whatever reason, this thread insists on telling me there is one new post in it, despite that never being the case. Anyway, can you guys believe Hayes doesn't know what an Overall Deal is, its so friggin embarrassing

PFT ON I4H IS HERE

Edit: I feel really bad for Hayes. He's so out of his depth on HH sometimes. He just doesn't know this industry we call showbiz like Sean does.

Yeah somebody at the party (I think Hardwick) instagrammed a picture of the sign.

This whole fascination with lineage and genealogy sounds like entitled Americans really wishing they had thousand year old families like Europeans, but without having to deal with being European.

Hi everyone - I wanted to stop by and say thank you for everything. Over the past few years I've been able to come here and read how people really feel about what we do - what you like and don't like - and have been able to participate and engage when it made sense. You made me feel welcome and I appreciate that very much.

I'm really excited for Earwolf's future, there is a ton of new stuff being worked on right now, and I'm sure I'll check back in later to see how you all feel about things.

In the meantime, enjoy HH and I4H, go easy on Fogelnest and prepare for some changes. Adam and the rest of the team are hard at work right now to keep pushing the envelope on things.

And in case anyone is wondering, I'm already bored as hell.

Best,
Jeff

Hi everybody,

Just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself. I've been the COO of Midroll/Earwolf for nearly a year and more recently I've been handed the CEO baton by Jeff. You may have heard/read a bit about me if you're following Earwolf news.

Jeff and Scott have built an amazing company and I feel very fortunate to be a part of it. I can't tell you all how much it means to read posts saying that Earwolf brings joy to people's lives. For us, that's what it's really all about. That's what gets us excited to come to work everyday. I don't take that lightly and I've made it my mission to continue, and hopefully even expand upon that mission that Jeff and Scott created and followed. We do have a lot of exciting projects in the pipeline and our standards for quality are unwavering.

The frank discussion that exists on this forum is valuable to me and the rest of the management team. I'll be sure to check in frequently to make sure that we're doing enough to continue bringing you the joy and laughs you've come to expect.

And in the meantime, please feel free to reach me via email at adam [at] midroll [dot] com. I'd love to hear from you. Thanks so much for listening.

Best,
Adam

hey Yakety, just an idea but have you thought of doing what I'll call "reverse monetization", whereby you pay listeners to download and listen to Earwolf shows? It's probably prohibitively expensive for you guys to do it for everyone so you can just start with me. I'll PM you my paypal

I'm not a fan of HH but I respect that there are some out there who seem to like it so keep it going.
