While in New York I appeared on a show I used to frequently guest on, Red Eye. It was super fun and made me miss the old days, though I love the new days. I just wrote a couple more sentences and deleted them. Anyway! I found this video online of the recent Red Eye episode. Also, unrelated: Adam Carolla is getting some guff because of recent comments he made about women not being all that funny. I know he thinks I’m funny so therefore I’ve deduced he doesn’t think I’m a woman.

Here is a little video I did about Go To My PC and embarrassing photos
The AV Club described my podcast as "terrific"
…in a longer thing about Pete Holmes. But still!
You Made It Weird #52: Alison Rosen
On the latest installment of You Made It Weird, Pete Holmes says that when he sits down to record a podcast he’s aiming for an organic, free-flowing conversation rather than a conventional interview or Q&A. That’s just what Holmes gets with Alison Rosen of The Adam Carolla Show and Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend, a terrific new podcast that had Holmes on as its first guest. Holmes and Rosen have a natural, easy rhythm that allows them to explore some darkly fascinating subject matter, particularly Rosen’s creepy, mildly dispiriting introduction to the frequently creepy, mildly dispiriting world of sex. It’s not always clear who’s driving the conversation here, but that’s part of the episode (and the podcast’s) casual charm. [NR]
This was in the AV Club’s PODMASS, Best podcasts for the week of May 24-30. Yay!
(thanks to @captainnatepalm for tweeting me about this!)
I was on You Made It Weird with Pete Holmes
I was on Pete Holmes podcast! It was super fun and went by very quickly and before I knew it I was back in my car worrying that I’d said too much. I’m pretty sure I did. Anyway, you can listen to it here.
Big Hollywood interview
Christian Toto from Big Hollywood wrote a story about me. You can read it here.

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.
