If you aren't already subscribed to the podcast for RiffTrax writer
Conor Lastowka's funny side project "[Citation Needed]," you probably
should be, since his riffing mates Mike, Kevin and Bill are frequenly
featured. He just released episode 4 and it features Mike in a sketch
(as Hitler!) and a phone conversation with Kevin in which they discuss
the "Owner of a Lonely Heart" host segment in episode 1008- FINAL
JUSTICE.

Josh (who was in Minneapolis this weekend doing standup) was a guest on
a Twin Cities radio show, "Weekends with Mike and Natalie," and Joel
called in from his birdsong-filled back yard.
Click on "Hour 2." Josh's interview starts about halfway through.

Jeff McGinnis of the Toledo Blade interviewed us for his podcast, "Pop
Goes the Podcast." Our interview starts at about the 52 minute mark.
There's probably nothing in the interview that regulars here don't
already know, but we had fun doing it. The sound quality is a bit low,
and most of the time Jeff didn't really call on us when he asked a
questions, so there are a couple of odd pauses as both Brian and I
waited for each other to start talking, but other than that I think it
went pretty well.
Kevin is interviewed by the awesome James Lileks.
