Talk Show
What started as a joke became a global sensation. When these two humble friends (Joe Rodriguez and Evie Barriga) met working late nights at a RadioShack in the San Fernando Valley in 1999, they had no idea they would change the world. New York Times calls their podcast "riveting" and Rolling Stone calls their conversation "so specific, it reaches unforeseen levels of universality." Rumor has it, Barbara Streisand's will stipulates an episode be played at her wake. Now translated into over 102 languages and transcribed into stone at the Aztec "Sacred Mountains of Mexico," the Talk Show podcast is the most-played audio recorded show in the world (per Billboard magazine).
