The Tom Barnard Show

Maybe it's just because of Tom's influence, but Curtis Mayfield feels like a household name.  Not to be one-upped by his own father, Cheaa's working on his own name, not through singing but through writing.  And speaking of household names, John Savage, most famous for being in everything ever, was mostly recently in Seal Team, now on CBS All Access.  He's also very comfortable on the air.   Poetic License: In Poem and Song - amzn.to/2ZmF5wXSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's another week in 2020, and you know what that means: Hollywood and the media trying to one up themselves in being reprehensible.  They're doing a pretty good job of keeping the decades-long streak going, but you do have to wonder what the long game is.  They're already the best at it, and there are only so many abhorrent things you can say or do before you've said and done them all.  Still, it's always good to push your limits.  Keeps you spry.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you could have one last lunch with someone from your past, who would it be?  What would you say to them?  That's exactly what Erica asked the friends and family of people like Steve Jobs, Jackie O, Julia Child, and of course, her father, Joseph Heller.  Turns out it's a deeper question than many realize until they think about it.

Alec is a hot mess.  That's why he's spending an hour with a psychotherapist every week.  Also because it's actually a podcast.  It turns out that even if it's made for entertainment, an hour with a therapist can be both interesting, enlightening, and cathartic.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.  Except for the constitution.  We've amended the hell out of that.  You can thank said amendments for important rights such as not being forced to turn your house into a barracks for the redcoats.  Think of how often that would happen otherwise.  Also there are some in there about voting and speech or whatever.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For some reason, celebrities seem to have a lot of skeletons in their closets.  Sometimes literally.  The general mindset seems to be that if a person agrees with you now, all past transgressions are forgiven.  Whether you call this charitable or cultish probably depends on whether or not you're the one being agreed with.  One thing is for certain, however: if you want to make money, don't make a Christmas movie.  Unless the Grinch is in it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
