191: A Meditation On Here & Now At Exactly 11:11

Published: Feb. 14, 2018, midnight

It's an EHG reunion! Too bad it's for Here & Now, Alan Ball's new HBO show, and while Tara and Sarah couldn't make it past the pilot, Joe had some additional insights on the existential crises (and Jim Carrey-an supernatural twists) of a Portland blended family that even the show itself doesn't seem to like. We went around the dial with the new Queer Eye, American Crime Story: The Assassination Of Gianni Versace, Schitt's Creek, and Homeland, then tripled up on guessing the heart of our producer with a three-fer of Will Dave Hate These? before Joe pitched "the Martin Short episode" of Arrested Development for the Nonac. Netflix talk shows won, Omarosa lost, and Dan Cassino brought us a delightfully bookish Game Time. Park your Prius by the side of the road and sob (with laughter): it's an all-new, yet comfortingly familiar, Extra Hot Great.
