Right here we've got a rollicking conversation with writer, spoken word performer, and pop culture sponge Deej Siminoff. We chat about her new chapbook Joni Isn't From Here Anymore, the importance of place, Scandinavian long-form crime drama, inspiration as it relates to perspiration (according the film Heavyweights), magic TV studios, my semi-serious childhood interest in Bob Newhart's television empire, the TGIF sitcom universe, a massive life lesson learned through Disney Adventures magazine, onion pants, and more. Also I sing the Smallville theme for a sec. 

This episode also features another installment of the Podcast Pilot Project. This time around, it's For Your Prize Only - a show where there is only one prize and the host can also win the prize. Thanks to Mickeilla and Cass for volunteering. Stay tuned for more bold new podcast pilots!
