When you have your own talk show on IFC, you can get some pretty huge guests from the world of entertainment. This week Scott shows off his showbiz credentials with former Monk writer Tom Scharpling, gay marriage advocate Gary Marshall, and future “Best Book” nominee “Weird Al” Yankovic! If you want to know what it was like to write for Your Show of Shows, or how to behave during a Costco book signing, this is a show to which you should pay careful attention. Scott once again rolls out a new feature with “Who Said It?” but in proper tradition follows it up with a rather rousing round of “Would You Rather?” Like “Weird Al” always says: What’s Up Hot Dog!

The message of the week on Glitter in the Garbage is sisterhood, whether it’s between Oprah and Gail, Oprah and her half-sister, or Oprah and June Raphael. June, Casey Wilson and Matt McConkey join Drew to teach us all about womyn’s safety, and the fellowship of out-of-work actors. Remember folks, be careful when you’re straight cruising at gay bars, and don’t drink and drag!

When The Razzies, Rotten Tomatoes, IMDB, and 9 year-olds all agree a movie is bad, it’s time for us to dig in! The Last Airbender is the universally despised M.

Proficient comedian Matt Besser comes by to talk about exercise bicycles, making pizza, and CHARTS! The music for the week is rock, which goes over surprisingly well, and after the movie chart we see the return of Chart Roulette. Even the biggest comedy nerds might not know about Matt Besser’s comedy gene pool, and even the biggest chicken nerds probably have no idea what goes on at the Museum of Chicken Excellence. Be sure to check out Dragon Boy Suede’s Ho Cal from the Earwolf store, and once again, our sincerest apologies to Linkin Park and China.

We know that many of you are not ready to forgive Brett Gelman for the way he made a mockery of Comedy Bang Bang in 2010. However, we let him back this week solely to bring along Michael Gladis (aka Professor Kinsalot from Mad Men) and Maria Thayer from the upcoming Adult Swim show Eagleheart. The cast lets us in on the graphic beginnings of Eagleheart and try out our newest feature, Is This News Story True or False?! Scott scores the episode with songs off of Don’t Stop or We’ll Die’s new EP, and Brett helps lead the first-time guests through What am I Thinking?, Would You Rather?, and of course, plugs.

52 weeks. Holy Hell has it really been a year of podcasts? A YEAR!? Indeed it has. Happy Birthday to Us! To celebrate, we pulled off a miracle that we still don’t understand which is to say that we got PATTON (motherfuckin) OSWALT to come on our little show! He is even cooler than you already think he is and he even brought over a signed copy of his new book, Zombie Spaceship Wasteland. We’re of course keeping that copy like the selfish assholes that we are, but we did purchase another copy (with a signed insert) to give to one our our beloved Laimewads – just go to our facebook page HERE, “like” it and leave a comment under this episode post. A random winner will be drawn on Monday, February 7th. Enjoy!

We’ve got some good news and some bad news this week on Glitter in the Garbage. Bad news is that Drew is a bit under the weather. Good news: This gives Harvey Fierstein a chance to drop by! Drew talks a bit about his past with Chloe Sevigny, and is joined by his friends Alex and James to talk about gay super-villains and John Waters films. Besides that, we have serious political discourse about the racial and sexual climate, a guide to Culver City California, and an appearance from diva extraordinaire Corona Martini!

Where do we start with Old Dogs? Human puppet suits? A cross-eyed Rita Wilson? Sports marketing?

If you’re listening to Who Charted? say YEAH! Chris Fairbanks (friend of Danny Glover, and Davy Crockett) takes a break from Fuel TV’s The Daily Habit to rock some charts with Howard and Kulap. They talk about iTunes top selling tracks (or more accurately, how much better 90’s hip-hop was), movies, and play the first ever round of Chart Darts. Kulap gets meta about Howard’s interview style, Howard once again hints at his romantic past, and Chris goes in depth about orthodontia. Be sure to pick up Ho Cal from the Earwolf Store, and catch us again next week on Who Charted?!

Lovers of spoken-word poetry and vokka rejoice! Harris Wittels once again has his dream of an hour-long phone corner dashed by craft-services coordinator and pudding aficionado Fabrice Fabrice. No disrespect, but Bobby Bottleservice comes by and relieves Fabrice of his interrupting-and-mocking duties with important info about upcoming events and his relationship with his mother. Jukebox Jury is back, and somehow overwhelmingly positive. Listen through the very end to hear Engineer Doug’s opus based on last week’s episode, Steak Shake, available from the Earwolf Store. Keep leaving your catchphrase suggestions, and go vote on the What’s Up Hot Dog Poll.

Nic Cage makes his first (but almost definitely not last) appearance on How Did This Get Made with Season of the Witch, a psuedo-religious buddy movie set during the black plague. Chris Hardwick joins the HDTGM crew to experience the inconsistent accents and sub-par CGI that famed director Dominic Sena cultivated in this cinematic gem. They pitch some alternate endings, delve into the subtle differences between witches and demons, and ask the all important question: How many women were killed during the crusades? Keep leaving us your suggestions and tell us what you thought of this chain-mesh disaster!
