Jay Weingarten and Matthew Goldin record episodes with characteristic zeal, releasing them every Wednesday exactly as planned. Their network of like-minded colleagues spans the reaches of comedy, music, and art. Peppering conversations with anecdotes and opinions to keep things engaging, Jay and Matthew offer an inside look into who it is that they actually are and what it is that they are all about. This pod is like if the Wright Brothers got too drunk and said “Screw planes. Let’s make a podcast.” “All right, I’m down.” Post-production brilliantly handled by @svengunderssen & @eckhart_lol
