The Sound of Young America

I got the Dave Foley link yesterday from The Sound of Young America blog. A decent comedy blog in itself what you have to visit TSOYA for is the awesome podcast library.

TSOYA is a radio show based in San Francisco. Hosted by Jesse Thorn, a 24 year old with the voice of a 45 year old, it mainly centres on comedy in all its forms. Each show usually has two interviews, plus a little bit of music or some audio sketches.

The interviews are in depth and insightful. Folk featured on the shows that I’ve listened to have been Chris Elliott, Daniel Clowes, Patton Oswalt, Brad Meltzer, George Pelecanos and Demetri Martin. The show has also had special episodes on improvised comedy, Second City and SCTV.

If you have a look through the archives I’m sure you’ll find something for you.
