Remember Going to Restaurants with your Family? (with Caren Beilin)
This week on the podcast, we are joined by writer, author and professor Caren Beilin! We get into all types of topics on this one, especially our fascination with Caren's Internet detox which lead her to purchasing a TV that plays "Frasier" on loop and a landline that's connected to her phone via Bluetooth. (You can't get much more nostalgic than that.) We also talk to Caren about growing up in Philadelphia and recently moving to our magical homeland of Cleveland and her favorite spots in The Land. Then we get into our topic of going to restaurants with your family as a kid! From fancy seeming spots to the eternity of waiting for your entree and sitting in the dreaded smoking section, we cover all the excitement and disappointment of dining out back when every new eatery didn't look like a Blue Bottle Coffee outpost. Finally in a round of YESTAGLIA OR NO-STALGIA we discuss the return of McDonald's fried apple pie, the upcoming Blair Witch movie reboot and should Pringles really be bringing back Miller Lite-flavored chips and for whom? Be sure to check out Caren's latest novel "Sea, Poision" and maybe you will catch her at Jonah and Vanessa's live podcast at the Cleveland House of Blues on 9/25!

RE-AIR: Remember I Love That For You (with Jenifer Lewis)
On today's episode Jonah and Vanessa are thrilled to welcome the one and only Jenifer Lewis! They reminisce about the first time they met when Vanessa was trying to get Jenifer to be on "I Love That For You" and Jenifer subsequently announcing to the press that she would be on the show... without a single mention of Vanessa. Plus you may know that Jenifer is the Mother of Black Hollywood, but did you know she does a killer Vanessa impression? And Vanessa's Jenifer impression is pretty good as well? Plus the two talk about their instant connection and all the fun they had filming together, so much so, that Jenifer still refers to Vanessa (and Jonah!) as a glass of milk with eyes. We also get into Jenifer's terrifying accident in Africa and the resilience that got her where she is today. Plus, in a hilarious game of CHANGE.DORK, the trio discuss whether Jenifer should host Wheel of Fortune, If Spongebob should have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, (plus Jenifer's own Hall of Fame ceremony and some incredible celebrity stories) and if "I Love That For You" should be renewed for Season 2 (duh).

Remember Blowing on Nintendo Cartridges? (with Jim Ward of Sparta and At The Drive-In)
This week, the Bayers are joined by post-hardcore loyalty in the form of Sparta and At The Drive-In guitarist and vocalist, Jim Ward! We discuss Jim's childhood growing up in El Paso, punishing bands at local venues and eventually becoming a musician himself.
