I’m doing my podcast live! Yay! Come see me May 24 at UCB LA.

Perhaps you want to read a description from UCB’s web site? Well then:

Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend

On this episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend, musician Matt Nathanson stopped by to talk about going to the Claremont colleges with Alison, performing on The Bachelor and Dancing with The Stars, exfoliation, what to say when someone coughs, relationships, words that need to be reclaimed, being gluten-free, touring, getting in fights with fans from the stage, Taylor Swift writing Matt’s lyrics on her arm and whether music can truly reflect the entirety of a person. We also answered your twitter questions and played a round of “Just Me Or Everyone?” (click here for a photo of the JMOEs we put up on the screen during the show).

On this episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend, SNL and Portlandia’s Fred Armisen stops by to talk about the car that he’s leasing for Portland, his spooky home decor, the transition from being a drummer to being a comedian, relationships (kinda), TV and an array of other stuff including who would play him in a movie and whether or not he reads negative comments. Also we took your calls and played “Just Me Or Everyone?” with your tweets. Make sure to listen all the way through (or pay a friend to do it for you) as there’s a special bit of hilarity tucked at the end.

Oh hi! On this super duper episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend, Kevin Pereira of G4’s Attack of the Show stops by to talk about being a child of the internet (and how it leaves you desensitized to shocking images), his early days as a web impressario/nerd who rollerbladed yet dated a cheerleader, Multiplicity, He Said/She Said and Bring It On, daschunds, relationships, performance anxiety and myriad things which are dazzling and hilarious. And also drugs. Gary and I didn’t want the episode to end. We are both in love with Kevin. Also we are in love with Alfred Schulz who called in to do a newish/oldish segment called Things You Never Hear People Say. Also also: we took your calls.

Comedian Doug Benson joins this episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend to talk about how he and Alison met, costume parties, twitter, dating, deleted tweets (sort of), the advice he gave Alison when she was auditioning for The Adam Carolla Show, his podcast Doug Loves Movies, Fox News, Red Eye and other important stuff I can’t remember right now. We also took your calls and Larry Miller tried to ruin my show.

Oh and a note: I’ll be all over your TV on E!’s Biggest Scandals Ever which airs Monday, March 19 at 10pm and forever after.

And here’s another photo since you’ve made it this far:

On this episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend, writer, comedian and podcast host Dana Gould joins the show to talk about his sexy flat feet and his out of date IMDB photo. We also talk about why it is he has three children, four dogs, two guinea pigs, a fish and a wife, how he met his wife and the way she refused to let him sabotage the relationship, relationships in general, being one of many children, panic attacks (he had one on stage!), sexy Volvos, unsexy Volvos, unsexy vulvas, semi-sexy uvulas, and what it was like writing for The Simpsons for many years. There’s no Huell Howser (you didn’t really think there would be, right?) but we open the phone lines and Dana Gould proves he’s awfully good at giving advice when a high school boy calls in wanting to know how to handle the fact that he’s openly gay, his boyfriend is in the closet and prom is coming up which he wants to attend, preferably with his boyfriend. There are other calls as well. I think we either fix or ruin someone’s marriage. Then I insult Gary. And other fun stuff!

Also I should come clean and tell you we didn’t really talk about vulvas or uvulas. Volvos, yes. And anal sex.

I am a liar!

On the fourth episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend, actress, comedian, member of funny musical duo Garfunkel and Oates and fellow podcast host Riki Lindhome joins the show to talk about relationships, Valentine’s Day, the Nuvaring, the way you have to do fun stuff like go on trips and eat at nice restaurants even if you’re single, workaholism, setting boundaries, therapy, whether relationships make you less productive and the way Kinko’s doesn’t suck, which is nuts since everyone knows Kinko’s sucks. In fact as I sit here writing this I’m still baffled at the way an otherwise intelligent woman such as Riki Lindhome can insist Kinko’s is a pleasant place to go when it’s pretty much the opposite of a pleasant place to go. Have I mentioned I hate Kinko’s? God, I hate it. But Riki doesn’t.
