Nardwuar is so unconventional as an interviewer that I’m not sure he’d fit, but I would absolutely love to hear about his process and approach in depth.

While I hate having to delay our regular schedule, the studio break-in a few weeks back combined with a perfect storm of other problems made it rather unavoidable. Rest assured, though, you will not be disappointed! Keep an ear out for it Thursday, June 5, and then our season finale on June 19!

Eager to hear a new Did I Do That? Unfortunately, you'll have to wait a little longer—our next episode will be dropping Thursday, June 5. Sorry about that!

Apologies! This week's episode is on backorder. Due in part to the studio burglary a few weeks ago, we'll be pushing this week's regularly scheduled episode back a week to Thursday, June 5. The good news: It's a great ep, so keep your eyes peeled for it NEXT THURSDAY! Thank you for your patience while we restock our season 6 inventory!

The bright side: I had already recorded two more episodes, which will keep us publishing for at least the next month. After that, though, there might be a short break in our otherwise steady schedule while I iron out details about how to move forward.

This past weekend, we suffered a break-in at PSU, which included the Rat's Nest, the show's recording studio. I'm safe and sound, but the damage included equipment pretty vital for recording the show—namely, the stuff that actually does the recording. You definitely need that, it turns out.

Cursed comps from our Ben Barry have just hatched!

Find it at dididothat.design & other pod places!

Three birds and their weedeater sibling hatch out of the nasty edible easter grass that looks like weedeater thread

A guillotine (cutter) for sale on Facebook Marketplace that will almost certainly get 30 separate accidental "Hi, is this available?" messages before one real buyer emerges.

Fun fact: Frasier actually wasn't intending to go to Chicago; SFO was just so foggy that they had to reroute to O'Hare
