Summary
Cameron, Jesse, Derek and Emily are all back together for a packed episode. In RELEVANT Recommends, we highlight Indie Tribe's new album, Who Do You Say I Am? and caught up with the guys at SXSW to talk about the making of the project and what it says about who they are as a group. In RELEVANT Buzz: Alabama's basketball team has been quietly building a faith culture all season that's worth knowing about. Then, as Stephen Colbert is wrapping up the Late Show, his next move is pretty unexpected: writing a Lord of the Rings movie with Peter Jackson. And then we highlight an unexpected connection between SNL's newest cast member and Orlando-based Christian rapper Caleb Gordon. For real. Plus we cover NCAA tournament drama, late night legends ranked, and the high school celebrity alumni rabbit hole (yes, DJ Khaled, Joey Fatone and Wayne Brady went to school together). In Slices: googly eyes are scientifically proven to deter seagulls (and lions), and the world record Big Mac guy has opinions on the Big Arch. And at the end of the show it's One Has to Go: pop icons, board games, classic Comedy Central, sneaker culture and more. We said it was packed. 0:00 — Intro / Derek's back, everybody's been sick 4:00 — The podcast economy is in trouble 11:30 — Mike Lindell gets served mid-interview 19:58 — RELEVANT Buzz 20:30 — NCAA Tournament buzzer beater & Dan Hurley headbutts a ref 23:30 — Alabama basketball's faith culture and Bible study movement 25:45 — Stephen Colbert leaving Late Show; late night legends ranked 27:25 — Colbert is co-writing a Lord of the Rings movie (Shadows of the Past) 33:00 — Unexpected celebrity connections: Snoop & Cameron Diaz, Dr. Phillips HS alumni 34:50 — SNL's Cam Patterson and Christian rapper Caleb Gordon went to school together 39:05 — Slic…
