ARIYNBF 111 with Hungry Girl AKA Lisa Lillien
Two Girls, One Sombrero
Lila Lillien, AKA Hungry Girl (“foodologist”, bestselling author and Food Network show host) stops by this episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend to talk about recipe development, sending foods to a lab to double check calorie counts, tofu noodles, how she went from from being a media executive to running her own business, iCarly, ducks on a date, hair straightening, one night stands, relationships and escalators among other things. I’m just going to say this right now: I think I come off as extra nutty and calorie-obsessed in this episode. I assure you in real life I’m a delight. Just ask Lisa Lillien! (I’m pretty sure we’re BFFs now. I want us to be.) Also in this episode we found out a little more about Gary’s personal life! And we played a special foodcentric Just Me Or Everyone. (Click here to see the JMOEs we put up on the screen.) Plus your emails and the iTunes comment of the week. And topic sombrero!

Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend necklace art
Look at this cool graphic designed by none other than superfan Randi Lawson. I hope she’s okay with me describing her as a superfan! She’s really more like an awesome fan who’s very talented. And also a superfan. And a superBFFFFFF!
And while we’re on the subject of stuff, how about you go subscribe to my podcast and leave a comment on iTunes? Oh, you already did? Okay nevermind.
It's time for an adorable seal
I can’t stand how cute this is. CAN’T STAND IT! Also there’s jackhammering outside my window which is a less cute kind of thing I can’t stand.
ARIYNBF 102 with Dustin Goot and your calls
Dustin Goot and me (back when we put ourselves on Ustream and occasionally wore antlers)(Not to be confused with when we wore this or this or this)
First of all I want to thank everyone for the amazing reaction to our first episode! We debuted at number one on the iTunes comedy chart and have held the top spot ever since! Also we were number one on the main iTunes chart for a chunk of time as well! In your face, This American Life! (Right now we’re number 4 on that chart. Update, number 10.) All of which is to say we really appreciate the support. (Please enjoy this photo of ARIYNBF at the top of the iTunes and Comedy charts!)
Anyway, on the second episode of ARIYNBF:
Dustin Goot–my old sidekick and longtime friend–joined the show to talk about relationships, humane ways to break up, the way I used to have a knack for selecting the wrong guy, Rosenating, burping contests, the difference between real production and doing a show in my living room, threesomes (and how awkward they are), porn stars who aren’t nobel laureates, embarrassing things people do in their cars and why you shouldn’t go to dinner with people in business school or keep track of how many times you’ve been dumped. Also we took some calls and played a round of Just Me Or Everyone.

a completely unimportant thought that is stuck in my head
Sometimes I get songs stuck in my head and sometimes I get words stuck in my head and sometimes I get thoughts stuck in there and here’s one that’s been taking up space periodically over the last few months:
How does one describe the difference between black cherry and cherry?
This isn’t a koan. I’m pretty sure someone could describe the difference, since I can definitely taste the difference and there’s a very real difference. But it’s tough to put it into words. I suppose black cherry is more mellow and cherry is more tangy/tart?
In other news I can’t stand having to wait until Monday to put up another episode of my podcast! I’m so excited that you guys like it!
This threatened to make me cry
So pretty much everything cute involving animals almost makes me cry or actually makes me cry. I would attribute it to hormones except I only started taking them a couple days ago (to control endometriosis… might I tell you more about my lady plumbing?) and this crying-over-adorable-animals bullshit has been going on for ages. But back to the singing donkey, or as my dad, Dr. Bruce and Bill Maher say, “dunkey” (I think it’s an East Coast thing).
Behold!
Happy Birthday, Woofie
Woofie was the dog I grew up with. People always thought we were saying Wolfie which is kind of tough and cool–and Van Halen-ish–instead of Woofie, which is neither. But he was a good dog and I was fairly devastated when he died many years ago and for some reason I always remember his birthday, which would have been today.
Here are some old posts about him, in case you need to look at photos and read some words, which you do.
In other news, my brand new podcast is launching on February 13th! Cancel all your plans!
Kevin and Adam had it out
So Kevin Smith came on the podcast tonight and he and Adam discussed their conflict and even though there may have been some yelling–or if not yelling, some talking in enthusiastic tones–I don’t think I suffered PTSD. I could say more but I need to change clothes and watch The Bachelor.
Here’s a Keek. I’m embedding a keek. Doesn’t that sound scatological? Pardon my keek. KEEEEEEEEK. Side note: What the fuck is a keek?
@alisonrosen and @thatkevinsmith after an intense show. Download it tomorrow.
