David "The Nuzzy" Nussbaum joins Art by Skype. The Nuzzy is well-known as a member of "The Stern Super Fan Roundtable" show on Howard Stern's Sirius/XM satellite radio channel. He's also a Twitter celebrity with over 17,000 followers, has produced podcasts for such stars as actor Andy Dick and comedian Fred Stoller, and has also hosted his own podcast, "Decently Funny with Nuzzy and the Guy," since 2009.

Nuzzy tells the story of how he catapulted himself from selling ads for an AM Spanish radio station to becoming a national sales manager with ESPN Radio, working in promotions with the Yankees, to being at the forefront of "new media." 68 minutes.

Art's comments: "If you're interested in Internet media and its future, David Nussbaum is one of the key people you want to hear speak. As for my own performance on this one...so anyway, it was great to have Nuzzy give us some of his time."

Conan O'Brien, that other talk show host, brought his show to Atlanta recently. Art talks about attending a special standup performance by the show's writers, and meeting legendary comedic actor David Koechner, a.k.a. Todd Packer from "The Office" and Champ Kind from "Anchorman."

Then, Hard Rock Chick returns to discuss her trip on the "Barge from Hell," another trip to the Grammys, and a special segment, "In the Listening Room." She opines on a series of rock and metal cuts, even though she's really too nice to do so, but is goaded by Art.

Stay tuned until the end for a special rememberance of the 10th anniversary of the beginning of the second Iraq war. 1 hr. 25 mins.

Art's comments: "This is the longest one yet, but I think it's all good. THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID! (Office reference.) And 'Landslide' is on AC/DC's 'Flick of the Switch' album, not 'High Voltage' like I say in the Listening Room."
