95 Eisen | You are in for a treat today! Rich Eisen is here and he is as great a candidate for Sklarbro citizenship as you'd imagine! He tells us about his experiences doing stand-up in college. He talks about the early days of Sports Center. He predicts the future of Tim Tebow. He laments the poor decisions of Michael Bolton. He's more multi-talented than a juggling triathlete, and you guys will love hearing all about his fascinating life. Plus, you love Weekly Wahlberg, so why not invite Mark to sit down with us for an extended look at his brother, his burgers, and his biceps.

92 Zach Galifianakis | People all over the country are familiar with Zach Galifianakis from The Hangover and his other wildly successful projects. But I bet those people don't know what kind of fruit Zach grows on his farm! Or what he and his comic friends used to do for fun in New York! Or how much he adores bad comedy! Zach is vacationing on the calming shores of Sklarbro Country this week, and we're glad to have him! Also joining us for the first time is Robert Siegel who treats us to his NPR grace, class, and dignity.

Jim Gaffigan pulls out his college football history, tells the tale of a spectacularly bad corporate gig, and explains the preparation and planning that went into his new special Mr. Universe. Don't worry, we saved enough time for a phone call from Racist Vin Scully and a message from Mark Wahlberg. Now take that money Kris Humphries gave you and pick up Mr. Universe.

89 Tony Hale,Dan Van Kirk,Jason Nash | We have no doubt that Sklarbro Country residents were and are huge Arrested Development fans. This week on the show we have the hook-handed youngest brother Tony Hale in the studio to tell us about his real life relationship with Liza Minnelli and how some inappropriate rubbing helped him land the role of Buster Bluth. He also offers up some psychiatric advice in a quick hits segment that will make you look at this country in a whole new, double-fat-fried light. Plus Bryant Gumbel is on the blower to give us some closing remarks on his brother's attempt at sports broadcasting.

87 Ellie Kemper,Vacationer,James Adomian | We all love Ellie Kemper. From The Office to Bridesmaids, her cheery smile has brightened big screens and now we're using her melodious voice to talk about pole dancing, coach punching, and fish advocating. Ellie has traveled from St. Louis to Princeton to New York to Los Angeles and now it's time for her to vacation in Sklarbro Country! Speaking of vacations, we're got an awesome band in the studio this week by the name of Vacationer whose island style and briefcase tapping are the perfect foil to Jesse Ventura who joins us to discuss his recent fisticuffs. If you live in Philadelphia, it's not too early to pick up tickets to see Randy and Jason at Helium on April 12-14. HENDERSON! | 3/23/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

86 Matt Paxton,Thomas Lennon,Nick Kroll | Are you ready for a doubleheader of awesome Sklarbro Country guests? For the first time ever, we have two guests from disparate worlds joining us throughout the episode: Comedian/screenwriter Tom Lennon and podcaster/host of Hoarders Matt Paxton. Matt lived in Reno, Tom loves Hoarders, it's a match made in heaven! They help us figure out the purpose of Rent-a-Center and create a marketing scheme that will revolutionize A&E. With all the Hoarders talk of dead cats, we thought we should invite our favorite pooch into the fold. Randy Moss's dog is on the phone with predictions on Randy's upcoming season with the 49ers. If you're in Austin tonight, better go to Esther's Follies for Sklarbro Country LIVE! If not, just go punch a waterfall and order a flat cat. | 3/16/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

85 Graham Elwood,Phil LaMarr,Dale Murphy,Earl Christensen,Dan Van Kirk | Folks, this is one for the books! We have FIVE guests this week from the worlds of comedy, film, television, athletics, and Toshiba. You'll get your weekly dose of Wahlberg before getting to know Graham Elwood who talks to us about performing for the troops and his fantastic podcast Comedy Film Nerds. We talk to a true childhood idol of Dale Murphy who puts us in touch with a Cheap Seats legend, Earl Christensen. As if that possibly isn't enough, we close it all up with Jimmy Smits.

Cheap Seats favorite Jon Glaser is in the hot seat to reminisce about his time with Randy and Jason and reveal some of the magic behind his hilarious projects like Tiny Hands and Delocated. Quick Hits is a bit of a misnomer this week as first-timer Ken Burns sets his own pace. Finally, we close it up with Bruce Jenner who sets the story straight on his Dancing with the Stars absence.

83 Ben Schwartz,Chris Cox,Dan Van Kirk | Living On A Edge! Ben Schwartz just might be the Jeremy Lin of comedy: He comes from humble beginnings, he's worked super hard to get where he is now, and he is absolutely killing it right now! Writing movies, stealing scenes on Parks and Recreation and House of Lies and destroying audiences every week at the UCB Theatre, Ben Schwartz is making it happen and we loved him so much we recorded with him two weeks in a row! We also get our second Weekly Wahlberg and a visit from the beloved Racist Vin Scully.

81 Anthony Jeselnik,James Adomian | This past weekend, arguably the largest event in sports was held. That's right, we're talking about the Super Bowl and we've invited Anthony Jeselnik, one of the most brutal roast comics there is, on the show as we discuss the legitimacy of the Puppy Bowl, ridiculousness of Madonna's halftime show, and everything else that goes along with this event. Anthony shares some secrets of the Comedy Central Roast and joins us for a killer round of quick hits. Also joining us is unlikely sports commentator Pat Buchanan who brings his own opinions on this year's record breaking Super Bowl. Head over to Jockular.com to check out the Sklars in "Point/Point".

You'll never want to miss a moment once you hear Keegan-Michael Key, one of the show's co-stars, on today's Sklarbro Country. Keegan is somehow able to talk about sports, comedy, Downton Abbey, race relations, and everything else we throw at him from WWE to Tebowing in Vegas. Also joining us this week is Bryant Gumbel who tells us about the best Super Bowl prank imaginable. The cherry on top of this power-packed episode: Charlie Sheen wrote and recorded a snippet of the possibly forthcoming Sklar Brothers autobiography and we're sharing a chapter.

79 Tom Scharpling,Chris Cox | Tom Scharpling is the host of The Best Show on WFMU, the director of some of the best indie rock music videos, and perhaps a contender for best Sklarbro Country guest?! His sports knowledge (available for perusal at The Classical) and radio expertise make him the perfect contributor to conversations about Bubba Watson, Kevin Federline, and our new favorite athlete Tina Maze. With Rob Lowe in the news, we check in with his Brat Pack buddy Charlie Sheen who treats us to one of his always-welcome rants. This episode is sponsored by audible.

The man is a Marine, an athlete, a prolific comedian and a perfect guest; press play to find out why! Also on today's show, the Reverend McElvain will educate us on how to properly pronounce Tim Tebow's last name and maybe drop a revelation if he finds the time.

Plus we check in with two of our favorite guests, Bruce Jenner and Gary Busey, to ask them about their cross-dressing and wife-swapping, respectively.

73 Kyle Kinane,Jesse Thorn | After giving him so many props in the latest Patton Oswalt episode, we had to invite Kyle Kinane to visit Sklarbro Country. He totally lived up to expectations with stories of his past as a punk rocker, his love of sports snacks, and his approach towards corporate comedy gigs. Also on the show is Jesse Thorn whose fantasy report is both timely and, dare we say, holly jolly? Plus more stories of freak sports accidents and a look into the frightening world of sailing. If you're in Phoenix this weekend be sure to see Randy and Jason at Stand Up Live and Sacramento folks can start planning their New Years Eve by picking up tickets to Punch Line now! | 12/15/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

72 Steve Rannazzisi,James Adomian | If you love Sklarbro Country but not enough to get a tattoo of Randy and Jason, listening to this week's episode is a good enough gesture. Our guest is The League's Steve Rannazzisi who talks to us about his background in theater and improv and who shocks us with the fascinating story of why he left New York City. First time guest Tim Gunn calls in and puts us in a headlock with his secret athletic prowess, concluding this knock-out episode.

We've prepared a special post-Thanksgiving treat for you all with special guests Patton Oswalt and James Taylor. Patton uses appearance number three to tell us about his hot, smelly summer in New York, document the demise and revival of alternative comedy, and explain why The Texas Chain Saw Massacre deserved an Oscar in sound design.

69 Weird Al Yankovic,Jim Bianco,James Adomian | You can't not love "Weird Al" Yankovic. We are lifelong fans and were more than happy to stamp his passport in Sklarbro Country. From his very first Jim Croce parody to his reception on Twitter, we loved learning about his three-decade-long reign as the King of Parody. Keeping in the theme of childhood heroes, we've invited Jesse Ventura to take a quick detour from his route to Mexico to hang out with us. Add live music from Jim Bianco, some Nickelback news, and the oddest stroke story we've ever heard, and you'll have an hour-and-a-half long vacation to amaze your friends with pictures from. | 11/18/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

68 Beware of Falling Fat Guys | Thirsty from an exhausting Scrabble tournament? Back a little sore from a rough encounter at Shea? Eagerly anticipating the new Magic Johnson musical? Drink up, stretch out, and calm down because Will Forte awaits you on the calming shores of Sklarbro Country. His Saturday Night Live resume is hilarious, his athlete run-ins are captivating, and his Raiders fandom is inspiring. Less inspiring but equally intriguing is Owen Wilson who makes his long awaited return to clue us in on his NBA lockout plans. This is a great episode so don't pull a Dykstra and miss it! | 11/11/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

67 Hard High Five | If Vitali Klitschko thinks he can be the President of Ukraine, I believe we should nominate Maria Bamford for President of Sklarbro Country. She will rule the country with a sober fist, she will reform the laws regarding Monopoly, she's both a diplomat AND a cheerleader, and she's not afraid to ask for coaching when she needs it. Do all you BamFans agree? She'd make Sklarbro Country a welcome place where Bruce Jenner could come to forget about Kim's failed marriage and Cristiano Ronaldo could reset his email settings.

66 Sklarington Manor | Folks, I don't even know where to start on this one. We've got a doozy on our hands. You know you're in for a treat when step-family sword fights, scrabble theft, and offensive puns are our biggest news stories. Joe Lo Truglio from The State and Wet Hot American Summer talks to us about his leap from high school swimmer to college sketch comic and how important fantasy football is to him. Jesse Thorn must have been eavesdropping on the fantasy conversation because he closes up the show with what is perhaps the cutest and most cuddly fantasy report yet. Don't miss the first of hopefully many installments of Sklarington Manor, our sister podcast from across the pond courtesy of our friends from Snuff Box. This episode gets a Henderson! Osbaldiston!

64 Gary Gulman | Randy and Jason were out of the country (the Sklarbro one, that is) for two weeks and they've got to play catch up! From fatal pierogi-eating contestants to dwarf tossing legislation, the boys are finally back in town to deliver breaking news! The guest: Gary Gulman from Last Comic Standing. He was in town for Conan and we snatched him away to talk Divison 1 Football, living with Todd Glass, and his love of grapes. We end it with a call we received a few weeks back from Gary Busey who tells us about his upcoming stint on Celebrity Wife Swap. It's good to be home! HENDERSON! | 10/14/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

63 Guest Hosts: Matt Besser, Howard Kremer, Danielle Schneider | Randy and Jason are out on the road so it's time to call in the 12th man...and the 13th man...and the 14th woman. Matt Besser, Howard Kremer, and Danielle Schneider are slapping some paint on their faces and getting in the gridiron! First some basic drills with the Hank Williams Jr fiasco, the intrinsic hypocrisy of Fantasy Football, and the NBA lockout, but then the real game begins: Explaining football terminology to Danielle (as a surrogate for our other non-sports fan listeners). Which of our replacement hosts are YOU voting for? | 10/7/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

62 Marc Maron | Randy and Jason are on the road so they decided to try something different this week. No quick hits, no Sklarbitration, no characters, just an hour or so with Marc Maron. Marc, as you probably know, hosts a very popular podcast called WTF? and we've decided to plug into his formula just this once! The three discuss comedy idols, getting started in the industry, the business of podcasting, and Marc's connection to the sports world. We hope you enjoy. | 9/30/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

61 Kathy Griffin,Blake Griffin | A Tale of Two Griffins Merriam-Webster defines griffin as “a mythical animal typically having the head and wings of an eagle and the body and tail of a lion.” If that’s true, than our show has the wings of a glamorous diva superstar with the tail of an NBA legend-to-be. Kathy Griffin, fresh from the red carpet, brings a level of glitz and panache that is shockingly absent from most sports shows. Her tales of fancy parties, legendary Largo shows, and Hollywood rivalries (watch out Jon Hamm!) serve as the perfect foil to our call with Bruce Jenner who is having trouble keeping track of his own little divas. Plus, Blake Griffin FINALLY addresses the rumors of his move to the Harlem Globetrotters. Our apologies for the bad audio on the call, but Blake is a beast in the paint, and a beast on the phone.

60 Rob McElhenney, Jason Nash | Mac and The Q Crew, together again! Rob McElhenney, fresh off the It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia season premiere, stops by Sklarbro Country to discuss the manliest of subjects: Smoking, fighting, power lifting and, of course, fatherhood. Following that interview we have Bryant Gumbel who talks to us about, well, following up interviews. Plus we've got sports news courtesy of Paul Hamm, Manny Ramirez, and the NHL. Hello and "HENDERSON!" to any new listeners, and be sure to pick up a limited edition signed copy of Hendersons and Daughters from the Earwolf store. | 9/16/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

You gotta stretch before you sprint, so prepare for the Sklar-athon with a proper warm-up of Sklarbro Country. Writer Alec Sulkin leaves Twitter for long enough to discuss working for Craig Kilborn, his friendship with Seth MacFarlane, and his upcoming Mark Wahlberg/Mila Kunis movie. Not enough for you? Well we have Jesse Thorn back for yet another of his fantastic fantasy reports. Still not enough? Sklarbitration returns! Enjoy, and HENDERSON! | 9/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

58 Kevin Pollak, Chris Cox | While many of our guests are sports fans, very few have the compelling insight of Mr. Kevin Pollak. He brings to the calming shores a deep Giants fandom and some unbelievable personal stories from Sugar Ray Leonard. The inside baseball doesn't stop there as Racist Vin Scully visits us hot on the heels of his major announcement. For the non-sports fans in the audience, we've got news from Snooki, George Lucas, and posts from the Facebook wall of Ronald McDonald.

Our first guest is Paul Gilmartin who you certainly must know from Dinner and a Movie or from his awesome stand-up and hilarious characters. He talks about adult-league hockey fights and competes with Randy and Jason in a fear-off straight from Mental Illness Happy Hour. We close it up with Michael Samosa, an athletic linguist of sorts who is not only here to educate but to bring us all together as citizens.

56 Rob Delaney,Jason Nash | NBA Lockout got you feeling down? Sad about getting kicked off of your high school football team? Did a member of the U.S. Ski Team recently urinate on you? Well we have an episode sure to cheer you up featuring the delightful Rob Delaney. The Twitter superstar charms us with the unbelievable story of how he went from Sir Lancelot to accountant to television writer all while finding time to sing at Fenway Park! Rob's unstoppable positivity even wears off on Bruce Jenner who seems to be in great spirits for his daughter's wedding. Not even a frivolous Village Person lawsuit or ridiculous Ron Artest news can get our mood down!

55 Brian Posehn, Chris Cox | This episode has been approved for all audiences. If you are old enough to play soccer in The Netherlands, or even Spain, you will enjoy this show. All potential streakers have been asked to clothe themselves and any professional boxers will be put in jail if they display profane gestures. Our guest is Brian Posehn, a father and honorary Juggalo, who discusses his two-year-old baby and shares the harrowing tales of his youthful indiscretions. Our hip young listeners will even get an educational rap if they listen long enough! So put down your gameboys and walkmen and pick up Sklarbro Country.

54 Josh Malina,Nick Kroll,Jason Nash | We are in a brand new studio this week on Sklarbro Country and we are christening it with a great show full of awesome guests. Our favorite furry friend Randy Moss' dog stops by and talks a bit about Randy's potential move. We get a call from perhaps the biggest celebrity in Sklarbro history: Bryant Gumbel! And we round it out with Josh Malina of Sports Night (and the wildly popular Family Album) who talks about his brief stint as a wrestler and his long-standing relationship with Aaron Sorkin. It's not a true Sklarbro Country unless there is talk of mullets, taxpayer delinquency, prostitution rings, secret babies and more. The weather is reaching record highs all across the land so cool down and relax on the calming shores of Sklarbro Country. | 8/4/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

53 Paul Scheer,Kevin Seccia,Langhorne Slim & The Law | We begin the second year of Sklarbro Country with the most relevant and important topic concerning sports: Which players should and shouldn't be made into bobbleheads? It's an important issue and thankfully we have Paul Scheer on the show to help us figure it out. In addition to discussing Human Giant and The League, we get to the bottom of the phenomenon of homeless joke theft and Paul uses his knowledge of MTV to help us understand Jay Cutler and Kristin Cavallari's relationship. Also in the studio is Kevin Seccia who reads a passage from his hilarious new book Punching Tom Hanks. Music is courtesy of Langhorne Slim & The Law who not only play beautifully, but offer up their own opinions on Deputy Butterbean.

52 Myq Kaplan,Chris Cox,Michael Floorwax | Like Cristian Vasquez Martinez returning from the Dominican Republic, Randy and Jason are here to import high quality, uncut comedy from the calming shores of Sklarbro Country. Unlike Cristian the guys aren't putting all their eggs in one basket (or pair of sneakers): We have THREE excellent guests this week! First, listeners can get their Cheap Seats fix with a call from Michael "Waxy Lou" Floorwax who tells us how he and Steve Garvey came to work together. Next up is Myq "The Linguist" Kaplan who offers up the most impressive list of Sklar puns since the show's inception one short year ago. Finally we have possibly the most impressive guest to date, Michael "Victory" Caine who, if we can be honest, should have coached the U.S. Women's Soccer Team. I know this is a lot to look forward to, so be sure to use the restroom BEFORE you listen! | 7/22/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

51 Chris Cox | If Sklarbro Country had a Vice President, it would be Chris Cox. His contributions to Sklarbro Country are consistently hilarious and have garnered the love of Sklones everywhere. You've heard him as Tiger Woods, Sam Elliott, Racist Vin Scully and more, now hear him without all the voices (okay, there are still some voices thrown in). Get to know his past as a writer on projects like Small Shots and Swing Bladeand find out which impressions have yet to make their way to the calming shores. The guys talk music, Saturday Night Live, sports memories and more. It feels like you're hanging out with friends, only your friends' Owen Wilson impressions aren't as funny. Framed by theA.V. Club Undercover song series, this episode gracefully brings Sklarbro Country into it's second year as a podcast. | 7/15/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Explicit10 Mike Birbiglia,Chris Cox | There is so much to learn in this Sklarbro Country! Mathematically, we learn more efficient ways to spend $55,000 than treating the Dallas Cowboys to dinner. We get a medical lesson from Mike Birbiglia about REM Behavior Disorder, and a geography lesson from him regarding comedy in Australia. We learn about feminism, specifically in regards to Australian Bikini Racing, and get to learn communication skills from one of the best orators of our time, Tiger Woods. Most spectacularly of all, you will get FREE legal advice through the newest feature: Sklarbitration. Head over to the Earwolf store to see Jon Hamm looking great in his Sklarbro Country shirt, and maybe get one for yourself. But if you see a phone number on the page, PLEASE do not call it! | 10/1/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

8 Janeane Garofalo,Chris Cox | Did you know that the average homeless person would rather listen to Sklarbro Country than use a LeBron James jersey for warmth? How can you blame them, with The Sklars bringing in fantastic guests like Janeane Garafalo and Snoop Dogg?!? The guys peel back the layers of alternative pin-up girl Janeane Garafalo, going from her friendship with Eddie Vedder during the inception of alternative comedy, to her wealth of knowledge regarding sports and reality television. She gives some comedy advice to those out there writing iTunes reviews, and gets to the psychology of athlete relationships. As if that wasn’t enough, Snoop Dogg visits the country and talks a bit about the VMA’s and the state of hip-hop.

Explicit7 Har Mar Superstar,Chris Cox | I'd venture a guess that Sklarbro Country is the only sports podcast that opens the show with slam poetry and closes it with an in-depth interview with Matthew McConaughey. I might even guess that they are the only podcast discussing Usain "Insane" Bolt and Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart, but that's exactly what you can expect in this episode. Har Mar Superstar tells us how he turned from indie Rocker to soul singer, while busting out an acapella version of a Boys To Men song that will leave you in tears. Matthew McConaughey tells us about his acting process, his favorite college football team, and his favorite hemp-based power bar. Be sure to let us know if you or anyone you know has Pat Benatar's cell phone number! | 9/10/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Sports fan or not
Awesomely funny. There's a sports theme but it is not necessary to know anything about or even care at all about sports. They make it relatable and hilarious for everyone.
great alt comedy
Great podcast, fast-paced comedy, great guests
Best podcast out there
The brothers Sklar are amazing, hillarious, witty, and Jewish. Where can you go wrong?
