    Description

    Feeling rejected? Desperately seeking a level of approval and social acceptance that seems to be lacking? Well, Duke University’s Dr. Mark Leary can’t help you with that. But he CAN explain the human animal’s deep and evolutionarily-motivated need to be liked. Plus, hot off the electronic presses - your show descriptions! Also, there are ducks. Lots of ducks.

    Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone is a comedy field guide to life, or at least a set of IKEA assembly instructions. Where else can you find advice on topics from "How To Keep a Friend" to "How To Translate Your Verizon Bill?" Or even "What do I do if I encounter a Bear" and "Should I Get a Penis Piercing?"Paula and her co-host Adam Felber bring on leading expert guests and use their unique comedic sensibility to help us navigate life in the 21st century. Along the way, Paula attempts to explains existence through her kaleidoscopic perspective, and Adam tries to interject some rationality.Paula Poundstone is a nationally known comedian, legendary for her smart spontaneous humor. She and Adam are regular panelists on NPR's #1 show, Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me!
