Why? The Podcast

This week it's another installment in "Tribute: A Tribute to Tributes," where we discuss another tribute album. This time it's one of the most 90's tributes ever made- featuring Liz Phair, Sublime, Sponge, Matthew Sweet and the Butthole Surfers, "Saturday Morning Cartoons' Greatest Hits."

Is wine really that complicated? Do most people who talk about it sound really pretentious? Is there any way that a person can learn how to taste and talk about wine and maybe even become a sommelier?
The answer to all of these questions is 'yes.' Well, if you're talking with Keith Wallace and attending a class at the Wine School of Philadelphia. Keith guided us through the world of wine, without pretension, explaining in clear and easy terms, how we can all become experts on wine.
For more information about the Wine School of Philadelphia, to sign up for a course, or to get a gift certificate for the holiday season, check out the school's website, or follow them on Facebook.

We get all of our football questions answered when we talked with Jake Sutherland. Jake is a tight end for the XFL's New York Guardians. How many people are hitting him up for tickets? Who names the plays? Do signs in the stadium really encourage them? Check Jake out on Twitter, or visit the Guardians' website for more info.

What better way to say 'Happy Birthday America,' than to talk about Showgirls. The Paul Verhoeven (classic?) film made a mark on film goers from it's opening weekend. (We know because Heidi was there.)
We sat down with Jeffrey McHale, director of the great new documentary You Don't Nomi, where he examines the obsession people have with Nomi Malone and why we all aren't done talking about Showgirls.
You Don't Nomi, is now available for rent from the film's website. We recommend it.

You may know Patrick McEnroe from his time on the tennis court, but now he's also hosting a new podcast called Holding Court. His show features conversations with celebrities who are also tennis fans.
