We're going ape this week, and that's no horsin' around! (No, seriously, we already did an episode about horses eons ago.) We're looking at a few of our favorite simians, both real and fictional.

Talent can be a blessing or a curse. Some people don't have the temperment to handle the pressure of being at the top of their field. Other people can be really good at something that they just don't love. Still others are Nicolas Cage.

This week we're turning our attention to people with a ton of talent, but also with a ton of baggage.

Contractually, we are obligated to do this episode about contractual obligations, which is a weird clause to put into a contract but HEY always hire a lawyer before you sign, kids. The good news is that this is actually a fertile topic, with lots of options from film, TV, music and more.

You're under no obligation to listen to this episode, but we think you'll enjoy it all the same.

Unique segments are the backbone of any decent late night talk show. Nothing gets an audience fired up like knowing that one of their favorite segments is coming up. You can also tell a lot about the show's concept, target audience and sense of humor based on what are the recurring bits. Think that Dancing Itos is just HILAROUS? Then brother, do we have a show for you.

We're exploring some of the most iconic late night talk show bits in history on this week's episode. And our special guest this week knows a lot about talk shows - he hosts one every month in Los Angeles. Mike Perkins' "Another Late Show Tonight [https://www.themikeperkins.com/another-late-show-tonight]" gives you everything you could want from a great late night show - without the pesky need for television cameras.

Happy Wrestlemania Season, everyone. Wrestlemania is the one time when even the most casual fans pay attention to what's happening in wrestling. A lot of that has to do with the fact that big-time celebrities have a tendency to get involved inside - or outside - the ring during Wrestlemania. This week we're looking at some of the most high-profile, exciting and shocking moments involving celebrities and wrestling!

Sometimes the best bands aren't even real! That's the premise of this week's episode, as we talk about musical acts that started out as fictional and turned into hitmakers and live acts. Joining us to sort through the thousands of possible entries is T. Mike Childs, author of "The Rocklopedia Fakebandica" and proprietor of the FakeBands.com Wiki.
