Rodriguez is one of the most fascinating artists in rock history, a songwriter who initially failed to sell nearly any copies in the US yet - unbeknownst to him for years - was a superstar in Australia and South Africa.

You have to see the Oscar-winning 2012 documentary "Searching for Sugarman" to understand it all, but he's joins us for an interview that was as odd and iconoclastic as Rodriguez himself.

When "Oh Man, That's Awful" was hatched, we originally thought about discussing the most awful motel and restaurant reviews on Yelp with the reviewers who suffered them. Instead, we wound up asking funny people about their battles with everything from obesity to fleeing Scientology and against sexual harassment in Hollywood. But this episode detours back to the original idea, as hilarious comic Skyler Bingham gives us his absolutely shockingly funny stories from working in restaurants. This goes WAAAAAAAY beyond gross food stories into territory we can't even bring ourselves to write and describe on Facebook - and that says a LOT! Skyler is also a Mormon and we get into that a lot too. You gotta hear this!!! Preferably not while eating!!!
