One year ago today, Luke, Andrew, Sean and Firebird Jimmy recorded an episode of TBTL talking about their New Year’s Resolutions, we think. We were going to listen and use their hopes and dreams as a punching bag for an hour, but instead we all went out to do stuff. So, here’s that TBTL. We’re pretty sure it was a good one. Happy New Year! ( TBTL #1765: What Will We Do Yesterday Night? originally...

While Mike, Christy, Meredith and Bobby wait in line to return that XXL slim fit top from Gary’s mom, enjoy this favorite from our archives featuring the premiere of our awesome intro music courtesy of The Smittens: F’ing podcasts, how do they work?

Looking for something to soothe the holiday pain until the egg nog kicks in? Enjoy this apropos look back at an LRB Classic™ featuring Andrew “Hot Dog Story” Walsh, the oft-forgotten elf who was terrible at making toys, but dreamed of sidekicking on a moderately successful podcast. Mike and Christy interview Andrew about his history with TBTL, and then share his favorite clip, “Why it Matters: Chr...

Joyce -- what’s that podcast? Bobby, Christy and Meredith talk huggable Garys, cheese monger-dudes, Neil Diamond-heads, a shared frustration of Christmastime birthdays, a revolving door of cats and much, much more in your latest TBTL Week in Review.

After 72 episodes it was bound to happen, we had some audio issues with our guests recording and had to scrap the interview show this week, but fear not loyal listeners! Christy and Jeremy stop by for a brief explanation of what happened, we have a plan to tide you over till our next episode, and is Jeremy an 11 or a 10? You can find Bobby and Frizzell's Star Wars episode of Nerd Out Loud over at...

Just in time for the holidays! Brooklyn Ten Stephanie Lee doesn't let being Jewish stand in the way of her favorite Christmas traditions. She joins Christy and Bobby for a look back at a TBTL holiday classic featuring Luke, Jen and Sean's Top Five contemporary Christmas carols in one legendary mash-up. TBTL Episode #978: Modern Day Christmas Songs  originally aired on December 21, 2011.

Bobby, Christy, Meredith and Mike look back at a week of TBTL chock full o’ wind, hot dogs, celery, health code violations and poor financial management. Isn’t it obvious? TBTL doesn’t want you here anymore. Go back from where you came from. Go on now, git! Also, if you lost a wallet in Tukwila in the late ‘90s with $436 in cash and no credit cards or ID in it, email TBTLmessups@gmail.com .

Just hours before TBTL’s 2000th Episode, Chicago Ten Mike McCawley joins Bobby and Christy in the elegantly appointed Studio 208 at Hotel Deca. We were supposed to talk about a Jen Andrews segment from a 2011 Chicago live show, but Mike spends most of the interview on Brian Bosworth’s 1988 memoir “The Boz: Confessions of a Modern Anti-Hero,” which he “borrowed” from the hotel library. Catch Mike's...

Christy and Bobby check in from the hotel across from the venue for TBTL's 2000th Episode while Mike and Meredith prepare for a listener meet-up in Dallas. What this episode lacks in thorough recapping of the last week of TBTL it makes up for with stories of the LRB meet-up at the Mandarin Gate.

Grab a cranberry stick drink, heap your plate with Toasted Cheese Dressing, and join Bobby, Christy, Meredith and Mike for a celebration of a plentiful pod-harvest on this special edition of LRB. We give thanks for a year of blessings (from TBTL and the real world), talk through some of our least favorite holiday traditions, and reprise Luke’s conversation with his brothers and Addie about Burbank...

Suck in your gut, grab all your gold, and head down to the musty basement where Christy, Meredith, and Mike fire up the Andyman Grill to roast last week's TBTL Please bring an armload of towels and wear a tuxedo. Even though it's obvious to everyone you do not want to wear a tuxedo.

Bobby & Christy call the future to talk to listener Joe-Joe from Tokyo to discuss baseball, karaoke, and talk about the time TBTL presented a love letter to Japan. 

The LRB Family takes a break from Rod Arquette Live & Local to slip into some Tonight JNCOs and wrist bling for your latest TBTL Week in Review. When you order your episode, please keep in mind that caramel is 30 cents a pump, and having your assistant catch your empty Diet Coke can is more than you will ever be able to afford. Also, if you hear that dog barking, that is not our dog. Subscribe...

Mike and Christy welcome MinnesoTen Natalie Sinkler to talk about the time Jen came clean on ditching her birthday party and all of her friends to chase after a charismatic, and very volatile, young hockey player. Luckily for Jen, it doesn't work out.

Christy, Mike and Bobby take a break from their putter porn to stock up on shrimp pizza, butterhorns and conductors’ caps in your latest citrus-flavored TBTL Week in Review, all in an effort to ease the pain of an unheard Andrew Walsh poem that never was.

Christy and Mike are back together to welcome MichiTen Christy Landefeld and bring back TBTL's Bad Babysitter segment. After hearing disturbing stories from Luke and Jen, as well as the listeners, Christy L tells on herself and we vow never to let Bobby or Meredith babysit this show again.

Bobby, Christy, Meredith and Mike party hard in a rival show’s bar, head to Lowe’s for some inflatable Christmas crap, run off yesterday’s strudel, book tickets on an adults-only airline, and batten down the pod-hatches for an intensely boring and frustratingly self-aware windstorm hot dog story. All this plus an unnecessarily involved breakdown of candy bars by make and model in your latest TBTL...

Mike and Bobby welcome Ithaca Ten Sheila Reakes for a look back at a Cooking with Sean DeTore fan-favorite, Tons of Effing Risotto. Plus, punny T-shirts, smiling Red Robin burgers, and more bad babysitter talk from the LRB Follow-up File. This episode pairs perfectly with a reasonably priced bottle of Chateau Ste. Michelle Gewürztraminer.

It’s a full house this week as Bobby, Meredith, Christy and Mike try on their new pumpkin shirts, sort other people’s recycling, and think no one notices when they recline their seats during take-off.

Buckle up wagoneers, it's the first ever LRB ladies night!

Bobby, Christy and Mike polish off their midnight steaks and dessert sandwiches, and dive into an expensive in-ground liability pool for your latest TBTL Week in Review.
