All Things Comedy

The Midnight Air is your weekly “overnight radio” podcast from Daniel Van Kirk. Topics range from friendly conversation, pop culture news, film and tv discussions, stories of lore and mysteries, plus the articles from the pages of a small newspaper in rural Wisconsin. This is the easy-listening podcast for people trying to fall asleep or for people that are trying to stay awake. This feed is also the home of the back catalogue for The Pen Pals Podcast. With new episodes of Pen Pals dropping occasionally.

The Pen Pals Podcast

A listener suggested that I do my Top-10 Most Annoying Things About Travel! And boy do I have a lot to say! And I do it all on camera! But I also read your emails, ask you about movie soundtracks and we cover the Holi-Days like, Smart & Sexy Day. Plus, I read The Tribune with Rhonda’s review of my show! And for you Premium Subscribers, we’re covering episodes 4 and 5 of the Soprano!

Top 10 Most Annoying Things About Travel!

I have so much to cover tonight! I heard about an insane purge-style ball game in England but I get into that after I talk about my delay in posting this week’s episode. I share that I am now a guy with “readers” but after this past weekend, I am also a guy that loves card shows and doesn’t care about the cards. I have an update about my pursuit to get a picture with Rhonda and I slide a rant in while covering the Holi-Days like, Day Of The Dude. And as always, I read The Tribune! For Premium Subscribers, I give my reviews of Crime 101 and “Wuthering Heights” and we continue our Sopranos watch-along-podcast with Episode 3, “Denial, Anger, Acceptance"!
