Nick D – Outdoor Concerts, Old People and TV Talk

Nick welcomes TV critic Dan Fienberg from The Hollywood Reporter and The Fien Print to talk about the Emmy Nominations: the snubs, the favorites, the surprises, and how the strike will affect the whole season. They also discuss the return of the classic comedy “Futurama” to Hulu, the glut of other returning shows that will get lost in the mix, and a new documentary about legendary basketball great Wilt Chamberlain. Then, Esmeralda Leon tells Nick about her adventures at the Pitchfork Music Festival (which involve oysters, members of Radiohead, tornado warnings, and Phil Collins soundalikes) while Nick tells Esma about his experience at a Loverboy/Foreigner concert (which involves really old and fat band members, Shriners selling raffle tickets, and an incredibly annoying lead singer in what is basically a glorified tribute band). And, Nick’s Dad Tells a Joke. [EP161]
