Nick D – Dan Fienberg, TV Talk and Really Weird Pets

Nick welcomes TV critic from The Hollywood Reporter Dan Fienberg back to the podcast. Nick and Dan discuss the latest developments in the Big Brother house, including one of the best moves a houseguest has ever made, and CBS’s insistence on jamming “Big Brother Unlocked” down our collective throats. Then, Dan reviews HBO’s new superhero comedy “Lanterns,” discusses the best TV Teen Dramas of all time, this summer’s TV Beauties and Bores, and the life and career of Hayden Panettiere. Then, Esmeralda Leon and Nick talk about their weekends, and dive deep into the weird world of celebrities and their exotic pets. Included in the conversation are Nicolas Cage’s octopus, Reese Witherspoon’s donkeys, and Elvis Presley’s chimp. Pay attention…because there is also a quiz. [Ep 485]
