“Shame is embarrassment on Ritalin.”

Rick Moody and Michael Hearst admit to slacking by doing only ten episodes in about three years, which might explain why the newest episode of their  18:59 podcast is titled, “Shame”.  On this episode,  they talk to psychologist Tara Goodrich, and funny guy Eugene Mirman all in just under 19 minutes.  On a personal note, I personally feel a hint of shame for not mentioning the podcast when I interviewed Hearst a few weeks.

• Freakanomics talk about fear of death, NASCAR, and Glenn Beck; I swear it isn’t as bad as it sounds.

• Throbbing Gristle, Tuxedomoon, Sun City Girls, and Soft Circle all make appearances on the latest Bim Bam Boom.
