TBTL is a daily show hosted by two longtime friends goofing their way through the world the best they can.
Join Luke Burbank and Andrew Walsh as they cover the most important topics of the day, from 25 year-old film reviews to whether or not Andrew's neighbors are secretly using his garbage bins.
Luke and Producer Andrew try to figure out who had a crappier weekend. Luke, who ended up penniless and phone-less begging his way onto a city bus, or monologist Mike Daisey, who was exposed as a fibber.
Luke and Producer Andrew have plans to discuss the news of the day but end up delving into their childhood traumas with special emphasis on the danger of eating super hot peppers.
Marilyn Hagerty, the 85 year-old restaurant critic whose Olive Garden review has swept the internet shows up on TBTL to explain why we should all get over the internet. Plus! Motopony stops by Burbank Studios to chat, drink, and break into impromptu church songs.
KROQ's Bean Baxter stops by TBTL Studios to recount his recent meeting with Lana Del Rey, and Luke wonders if he's being a jerk by laughing at a midwestern newspaper review of Olive Garden.
The hilarious (and sometimes profound) Ron Funches visits Burbank Studios. Plus Luke and Andrew debate whether or not to see Lana Del Rey play a free show in Seattle.
Luke checks in from Chicago after another round of Wait Wait Don't Tell Me (which featured an awesome guest), plus, an interview with humorist, social critic, and all-around genius Fran Lebowitz.
Luke jets off for Chicago feeling very excited for the Wait Wait Special Guest he'll get to talk to but not before the fellas from The Lonely Forest stop by Burbank Studios to drink some scotch and make up some songs.

Luke and Producer Andrew make a plan to be Apocalypse Buddies, meanwhile Donald Trump takes some time out of his busy schedule (of being a terrible businessman) to weigh in on a topic no once cares about.
Luke and Jen parse through what worked and didn't work about this year's Oscars (spoiler alert, nothing worked). Also, TBTL has a special song of thanks written for the listeners who donated to the TBTL-A-Thon, and New Sponsor Alert! Welcome Evo!
Sean shows Luke, Jen and Mr. Knightly exactly what not to do when cooking pizza in a jar, and nearly loses an eyebrow in the process. It's another round of Cooking With Sean DeTore.
Jen and listener Drew review a romance/adventure novel that seems to contain neither. Plus, Luke agonizes over whether of not to climb on the Little Red Wagon for Lent.
Mo Rocca swings by to talk about Romanian Sausage Fests, Italian Elder-Love Films, and the search to make his grandma's signature ravioli. Plus, Sean DeTore produces a highly questionable song for the TBTL-A-Thon.

We learn that someone tried to stop the Challenger launch in News from 1986. And Norway meets North Korea in a lovely mash-up. Plus Jen shows John Williams some love and we end it all with a Web Gem.
Luke turns to Jason and Randy Sklar (of Sklarbro Country and other rad things) for advice on getting through this total lull in sports action. Plus, you got Hunger Games in my Lana Del Rey!
TBTL moves back upstairs, to the cramped office that launched things oh those many years ago. Luke Jen & Sean mull over The Superbowl, teenagers with contagious tics, and whether having to pee helps you make good decisions.
A recent Portlandia episode reminds of our own Battlestar Galactica rabbit hole. Plus, Tom Tangney gives us his recent interview with the director of The Artist
