Maximumfun.org is looking for a great Intern for the 2012 Spring Semester!!
If you are a student or a recent graduate who is interested in Public Radio or two small dogs, you should apply!
The Mountain Chalet is a great place to learn how to edit audio, research ideas for the show and how Jesse likes his dry cleaning done. (The last one is not true, you have to launder and iron yourself)
With the recent cross over to Bullseye, you would be entering the maxfun world at a very exciting time! There will be new segments to help produce as well as the old classics to work on.
So, apply* now & come join the team!
*application process includes a sniff-down by Coco The Brown Dog.

Jesse Thorn helps ring in the centennial episode of The Sporkful with hosts Dan Pashman & Mark Garrison.
The interview covers the differences between Northern and Southern California burritos, burrito construction techniques and the problem with vegetables.
Catch the interview on The Sporkful Test Kitchen, the official blog of The Sporkful Podcast.

Jordan Morris sat down at the Rosewood Tavern in Los Angeles and in between bites was asked a few questions by KCET's Laurenne Sala.
They talk Douchbag guys, good burgers and UC Santa Cruz. Kind of like JJGO but Jesse's a woman and Jordan's drinking beer.
-Okay, maybe the only thing different is the Jesse part.
