This is a beautiful tribute to one to the greatest radio producers of all time, and my mentor. As I listened to pieces of Larry’s stories, I felt a big sadness that public radio doesn’t play things like this anymore—stories full of people out there in America just getting through the day.

I *love* this podcast. Extremely funny stuff—Bashir Salahuddin is absolutely on fire—and the show plays with our expectations of what is possible to achieve in audio fiction production.

My latest entry into the Podcast Canon on @avclub.com has it all. An all-star cast! Written by an Oscar-nominated screenwriter! Amazing sound design and music! A spiritual link with the history of Black radio! Chicago!! Give it a read and a listen. Also…big news if you make it to the end!

“To think you can go to Stonewall and just take down the Pride flag — that is telling of the time we are living in,” Ms. Lentz said. “It is unbelievable. The flag is not just an abstract symbol; it tells L.G.B.T.Q. people, especially younger ones, that their history will not be sidelined again.”

O’Hara was incredible forever, on SCTV, the Christopher Guest movies, Beetlejuice, Home Alone, etc. But she didn’t become as famous as her talent warranted until her 60s. Suddenly it was like everyone caught up to her, and she could’ve worked forever. To have her taken away at this moment? No.

This is a white supremacist paramilitary operation. Their goal—their stated goal!—is to force America to submit to the President's racist domineering vision for the country. The sooner everybody starts confronting it on the terms that they themselves have stated, the better.

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

This is a great story, and yet another reminder that -- for something that felt like a fun goofy feature when it launched -- as we lose more and more actors, the AV Club's "Random Roles" has turned out to be an amazing oral history project.

The number of times I have said this exact line (including the Richard III reference, strangely) in the last year and a half is staggering. People’s whole demeanor changes when they know they’re being filmed! Video is not additive to the podcast experience. 100%. Full stop.

I’ve been waiting for this piece. As a Cubs fan living in Canada, this has been the entire season for me. Instead of any actual ads, every break in the broadcast features the same 4 or 5 clumsy in-house productions. The Mike Piazza one at the heart of this piece is really *shockingly* bad.
