Our guest this week is comedian Johnny Taylor, his album,Tangled Up In Plaid is currently available on itunes and is very funny. You can listen to his album on Spotify here.

Johnny is also the the co-host of the comedy podcast It's Funny Because, where he and fellow Sacramento comedian Keith Lowell Jensen bring comics on to dissect their jokes and figure out the science behind the funny.

We gave Johnny a taste of his own medicine and asked him to pick apart one of the jokes off his recent album about his idiot neice. 

We drank a special Stone brewing beer called Woot Stout, Brewed as a collaboration between Greg Koch CEO & Co-founder, Stone Brewing Co. actor and web celeb Wil Wheaton and creator of Fark.com Drew Curtis.

TV Time: We watched the Hulu exclusive show Resident Advisors. There are spoilers so if you haven't seen the show and are planning on it - well change your plans because it was kind of a waste of time. 

Here's Melody's review of Resident Advisors:

First thing I have to say --- I love Elizabeth Banks. It takes three episodes before you actually see her beautiful face. But she helped make this show happen --- as well as my favorite movie about college acapella groups, Pitch Perfect.

Another thing I love is Veronica Mars, the cult classic show about a teenage private investigator from a working class family in a rich town - one of the rich assholes she has to deal with on the reg is Dick Casablancas --- he’s played by a blonde attractive dude named Ryan Hansen, who is also very funny.

Anyway, so Ryan Hansen is in this this TV show. He plays the goofy, sincere, 30-year-old resident advisor known as Doug Wiener.

The whole show feels like a cheaper, less-well-written spiritual ancestor to Veronica Mars and Pitch Perfect. It’s silly. It made me laugh out loud a couple times - but the characters were pretty flat.

My favorite character is the quirky girl named Amy, played by SNL writer Alison Rich. She still believes in Santa at she’s 19, she set a little dog loose on campus because she discovers dogs aren’t allowed in the dorms and she writes hilarious songs about freshmen having sex with condoms she previous stapled to a bulletin board. She delivers every single line with bizarre adorable hilarity.

The rest of the cast is kind of archetypal and unsurprising, there’s the hardworking black kid putting himself through college with about 16 different “works,” as the entitled which rich kid call them. There’s the over-achieving driven RA manager who’s also very pretty and unbelievably ends up falling for the really old but sincere RA. 

I would say spoiler alert, but you see it come a mile away.

Overall --- it was a brain numbing way to spend a couple sessions of laundry folding. Good for a couple laughs, but doesn’t live up to its potential. I would not recommend it to my friends or relatives.
