Hey Jim, I just want to say you are responsible for some of the best laughs I've ever had.

That said, my question is, what was your favorite thing that you learned from a guest on your talk show?

What was the most difficult song to write that ultimately went on to be successful? I've been reading a number of biographies of musicians and inevitably there are some songs that they really talk about struggling to get to work.

Hey Mark, I'm a big fan of the podcast. I wanted to throw out a question.

How do you think awareness of the process of being a stand up comedian will effect younger comics, or has already effected them.

By that I mean we live in a world of constant blogging, podcasting and tweeting. All this information about the difficulties of being a standup, and the long process of finding your comedic voice. What effect do you think it has had or will have on up and coming comedians.

Also, big thanks for the John Darnielle interview. I'm a huge Mountain Goats fan and that interview was really fascinating.
