He's a sanitation worker which in some places isn't a bad living at all. His dad also apparently gives him money all the time.

I know he makes good money as a sanitation worker, but he makes it sound like his dad is fairly wealthy. Does anyone know how he earned his wealth?

That conversation was maddening. It really made me upset with them spouting all of that non-scientific bullshit. Then an actual nuclear scientist came on to dispute them and no one in the studio gave him the time of day.

I expect this craziness from Robin, but from Howard too...it really put me in a foul mood.

Does anyone else get annoyed when Howard asks guests how much money they make? This is a go-to question in literally every interview. This coming from a guy who adamantly refuses to discuss his own finances, ever?

Why doesn't a guest ever throw the question right back at him?

Because sometimes they answer honestly and it's interesting. Case in point, Bradley Cooper saying how much he made for his latest movie. Just like Stuttering John, I love finding out how much someone makes.

Probably because guests are intimidated or they know he won't answer.

While we are on the subject tho. It really seems The BTLS ship is starting to go down. The radioIO stuff is a complete mess, they have staff quitting and are trying to run a new venture that is entirely dependent on having a qualified IT security team. They tried to do this on the cheap and its coming back to haunt them.

I know I have personally sent Spice and Brent emails explaining how because they use Icecast the paid services will never be secured and anyone who has the streaming link can play it.
Kinda bums me out because they all seem like good dudes who just want to put on a good radio show.

Yeah, I'm a fan but it's hard to listen to RadioIO. Tons of ads that are the scammiest of the scams.

Yes, Howard. Louis CK and Ricky Gervais are not nearly as funny as Chris Rock.

How much do you want to bed that Howard has never seen a Louis CK standup or heard of anything that Gervais has done?

Frankly, I think Louis CK is the best standup out there right now. Much better than Chris Rock at this point.

I completely agree, and hasn't Louis written for both Chris Rock and Ricky Gervais? To me he's easily the freshest and funniest stand up out there.

Edit: Nevermind - the show is just starting 20 minutes late, according to the online stream at least!

Okay, it looks like the online stream is not working. Anyone else having problems? It picks up on yesterday's replay, when Hanzi is on the phone. It cuts out to the John the Stutter song that was in today's intro, then it cuts out with the "Data stream has been lost" message. When it picks back up, it is at the exact same spot - when Hanzi is yelling at Nick DiPaolo. This has happened four or five times in a row.

Yup this happened to me as well. I'll chalk it up to the channel updates, but still, was very annoying. I had to switch to the online player which is literally the worst interface I've ever used on a computer. Ever.

I didn't listen to that yet, but a lot of times people will misrepresent their IQ. Usually the only valid IQ test you have to pay money for and be administered by a clinical psychologist. Any other "IQ Test" such as online or elsewhere is usually bullshit.

It's gotta be the people they have working on it. I mean, look at Pandora, Grooveshark, Slacker, rdio, etc. They all seem to get it right. They probably have a handful of people working on it making peanuts compared to what they should be making and thus they churn out poo poo like this:
