William Shatner Pre-Flight Comments and Podcast Hostility
A comparison is made between William Shatner's profound post-flight reflections and his more eccentric pre-flight persona. Despite his recent media blitz, Shatner's management reportedly maintains a strict policy against appearing on podcasts. The hosts discuss the difficulty of booking high-profile guests who transition into "legacy" media circles.
In response to a listener suggestion, the hosts discuss the challenges of running a dedicated interview podcast. They explain the difficulty of booking high-level celebrities who often refuse to appear on independent podcasts. They clarify that while they do long-form interviews for "Best Of" shows, they have no intention of creating a separate interview-only feed.
Alanis Morissette Podcast, Sacred Conversations
Singer Alanis Morissette launched a new podcast, which the hosts describe as "crap" and overly sentimental. They play a clip where she describes her conversations as "sacred but imperfect and not precious." The segment is used as a springboard to mock celebrity-driven spiritual discourse and the lack of substance in such productions.
A promotional video featuring Kathie Lee Gifford explaining how to use the PodcastOne app is mocked. The hosts view the celebrity's entry into the space and her "five simple steps" tutorial as a "jump the shark" moment for the podcasting medium.
