We couldn\u2019t do it without our talented, hard-working crew \u2013 all working for peanuts. Literally, peanuts. That\u2019s all we can afford since we have no paying sponsors. (You can Venmo us a donation, if you like. For whatever amount you\u2019d like. One dollar. Two. FIVE bucks? More? It\u2019s totally up to you, but if you Venmo it to me, Marc Hershon, @Hershco \u2013 h-e-r-s-h-c-o \u2013 it will be used for offsetting our production and hosting costs. I can also kick Tyson a few bucks. So we won\u2019t say no to Venmo!) I mentioned Tyson Saner and if you happened to miss last week\u2019s Epi333, he was in rare form. Fresh off some well-earned vacation time over Thanksgiving, he served up a quartet of clips from such shows as Tough Drafts; The Crazy Life; Barnes, Brenner & Fitzgerald, and The Bitter Sound with old pal of the show Davian Dent. You can still grab yourself a big handful of Succotash Episode 333 wherever finer soundcasts are streamed and\/or downloaded, including Apple & Google Podcasts, Spotify, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Audible, iHeart Radio, YouTube, Amazon Music, PodBay, Podchaser, and at our SuccotashShow.com homesite, where we have that episodes and all of the other ones dating back almost 12 year in the Succotash archives. As for this week, my \u201cSeason\u2019s Clippings!\u201d episode, I\u2019m featuring a fivesome of fine feathered clips from the soundcasts Hey, Riddle, Riddle; Jordan Klepper Fingers the Conspiracy, Man Thinkers, our old friends over at The Salty Language Podcast AND an old friend with a new show, Fandom! The Podcast! In addition, we\u2019re putting aside those freebie spots from Henderson\u2019s Pants this week, to bring you word about something truly new, unique, and wonderful. It\u2019s our own Bill Heywatt offering his master class\u2026on running master classes. CLIPS Fandom! The PodcastI had pretty much pulled all the clips together for this episode and was getting ready to record when I happened to have a text exchange with a couple of old friends of mine from my sketch comedy days in North Hollywood with a group called Fries On The Side. Kenny Stevenson and Dorien Davies have been special guests on Succotash WAY back in Episode 20(!) Anyway, we were texting about something or another and Kenny mentioned that he and another old chum, Alex Enriquez, had just started a new soundcast. Kenny used to co-host a sports soundcast called Knuckle Sanwich \u2013 great title \u2013 but that had been down for a while. So he and Alex have started a new show \u2013 right up my alley as they cover a lot of super-nerdy pop culture territory \u2013 and I just got this clip in under the wire for this episode. Their show is called Fandom! The Podcast, from the Fan Controlled Network, and their most recent episode talks a lot about the new Willow streaming show on Disney+. Jordan Klepper Fingers the ConspiracyOne of the best forces for pseudo-journalism goodness has got to be Jordan Klepper, who\u2019s been a fixture on Comedy Central\u2019s The Daily Show for years. He\u2019s got a six-episode limited-run soundcast under the Comedy Central banner called Jordan Klepper Fingers The Conspiracy, where he digs deep into some of the wildest MAGA theories he\u2019s heard and, according to the show\u2019s description, \u201ctraces their origins with journalists, experts, and anyone who might have a lead on when JFK Jr. is coming back. The soundcast offers an opportunity to better understand some of the most extravagant stories Americans tell themselves.\u201d In Epi5 of the series, Jordan wades deep into the history and mystery that is \u201cHunter Biden\u2019s Laptop.\u201d We have a sample\u2026 Hey Riddle RiddleI\u2019ll be the first to admit this, but some soundcasts get past me. Maybe I\u2019m not paying attention or maybe it\u2019s because there are a couple hundred THOUSAND of them out there now. But I\u2019m really ashamed to \u2018fess up to missing Hey Riddle Riddle, mainly because it\u2019s hosted by a trio of improv and sketch performers and those are MY people. Adal Rifai, Erin Keif, and John Patrick Coan are Chicago-based and they\u2019ve been doing Hey Riddle Riddle for at least 4 years now. Out of the Headgum Studios, their homesite only has shows through their 4th anniversary show, which dropped this past August 27th. But there are still fresh installments coming out, available on Apple Podcasts, etc. What is Hey Riddle Riddle, for those of you who are like me and in the dark? Their show\u2019s description on Apple Podcasts reads, \u201cRiddles! Puzzles! WhoDunnits! Adal Rifai, Erin Keif and John Patrick Coan, three of Chicago's most overrated improvisers, are on the case to solve every riddle, puzzle, brainteaser, and head-scratcher known to humanity. Some riddles are almost impossible, some are absolutely improbable, and some simply have not aged well. And if you don't like riddles, don't worry! This podcast is barely about them!\u201d I bring you a pull from their 4th season finale episode where they get into guessing movie title mashups. The Salty Language PodcastIf you\u2019ve been a listener to this soundcast for any appreciable length of time, you know that both Tyson and I do have our favorites out there in Soundcastland. So we occasionally show them a bit more love than some of the other shows we feature. Tyson just played a bit last episode from our chum Davian Dent from England. I often talk with Jabs AKA Jason McNamara in Australia. And other folks like Hunter Block from Anti Social Show, Ethan Dettenmeier of Combat Radio, Ed Wallick from the hiatus\u2019ed Don\u2019t Quit Your Daycast, and Travis Clark from, originally, Tiny Odd Conversations. A few shows retweet OUR tweets religiously \u2013 like The Jock Doc Podcast and I Shake My Head with Lisa and Sam. So I want to do them a solid and recognize their place in our Soundcast Society, too, which is why we\u2019re featuring a clip from a recent installment of The Salty Language Podcast. Hosted by Tony and Bryan, this show has been around probably as long as Succotash. Sluggin\u2019 out the episodes one after the other. The show\u2019s simple description on their homesite reads, \u201cA soundcast about pop culture, living life, and anything else in our tiny brains.\u201d This clip is about one of the guys having made it to his first in-person medical checkup since COVID started. Man ThinkersIt\u2019s hard to tell if the attitude of the hardcore male chauvinist is on the run or just biding its time. I\u2019d like to think that kind of backwards attitude that men have towards women is being eclipsed by something more forward-thinking. Whatever the case, it\u2019s a way of thinking that soundcasters are having fun ripping on in a variety of ways. One of those is an iHeart Radio production, a show called Man Thinkers, featuring George Collins and Dan Finklestein. Here is how the show is described over on Apple Podcasts: \u201cMan Thinkers is a podcast where the facts...are up for debate. For decades, the lamestream media has prevented real men from sharing their knowledge. On Man Thinkers, there are no degrees and no rules. The hosts aren't impressed by run-of-the-mill \u2018experts.\u2019 Man Thinkers is a new space populated by iconoclastic thinkers, academic renegades, and media personalities that sound unlike anything else. Cable news is for the old and social media has become too toxic to trust. George and Dan courageously have the tough conversations that mainstream media won\u2019t touch. Man Thinkers is a safe space from safe spaces, nothing is off limits.\u201d In a recent episode that dropped back on November 24th of this year, George and Dan had two women on the show: Liz Plank and Monica Padman. Lis is a Canadian journalist, author, and soundcast host. Monica is an actor, podcast producer and co-host \u2013 you\u2019ve heard her on here before when we\u2019ve clipped Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard. The Man Thinkers had them on to talk about women freezing their eggs. Here\u2019s how part of the conversation went\u2026 That's it for the clips this week. If you've got a comedy soundcast and you'd like us to feature a clip, you don\u2019t have to wait for us to wade through those hundreds of thousands of shows to find you \u2013 you can make your own 3-5 minute clip and upload it directly to us at http:\/\/hightail.com\/u\/Succotash! That\u2019s gonna do it for Epi334 but if you want to hear what\u2019s coming up next, just hang arounds this feed until next week when Tyson Saner shows up with Episode 335 and lays it on you. Tyson\u2019s next episode is our Christmas present to you, as a matter of fact. And MY next show will be that after-Christmas great buy you get immediately after. Have yourself a fantastic holiday season. And remember, if som jolly fat guy in a red suit with white trim should happen to pop up next to your bed one night soon and whisper into your ear, \u201cHave you heard anything good lately?\u201d, it just might be Santa Claus wanting to find something decent to listen to on his way back to the North Pole, so won\u2019t you please pass him some milk, cookies, and Succotash? \u2014 Marc Hershon ","author_name":"Succotash","author_url":"http:\/\/succotashshow.com","html":"
