The Players
The people behind the microphones.
(And the phone lines.) The lineup shifted over nineteen years; these are the regulars.
Marc Chambers
Co-Host (2007–present)
Hosted every era of the show, from the 2007 Free FM broadcasts onward. Along the way he produced failed sitcom pitches, the Marc-Tracker App, a school board candidacy, and at least one submarine design contest.
Tod Perry
Co-Host (2007–present)
Original co-host, from the Free FM days through episode 263. He came back for the revival in 2017 and stayed to the end. In between, he turned up now and then as a celebrity guest host.
Mike Cioffi
Co-Host (2009–present)
A regular from early in the podcast era, then co-host from episode 264 through the end of the LBPR run. Home of the Lock of the Week and the Mafia Minute. His love of hockey was, at one point, available for purchase.
John Salwin
Co-Host & Announcer (2009–2013)
Announcer and third mic through the early podcast era. His Last Show Ever was episode 263. He came back anyway, riding the News Monster through 2013, and once performed a stirring Christmas poem.
Seena Akita
Co-Host (2009–2012)
Veteran broadcaster, wickedly funny, and a lovely person. Co-hosted throughout the Rotating Chair era, including a Comic-Con cosplay deliberation. Find her on Instagram and TikTok.
Britt Bickel
Co-Host (2010)
Writer, photographer, producer extraordinaire and all-around good sport. Britt lent her talent, charm, and wry humor as a co-host in the spring of 2010, including a super-sized rundown of the habits she wishes she had.
Darcy
The voice on the phone (2007)
Screened calls and chipped in as a contributor during the Free FM broadcasts, the earliest days of the show.
Yanira
Friend of the Show
Dropped by to help with news-reading duties or to play a character or two. Always a delight.
Brent Butler
Friend of the Show
Filled in during the spring of 2011 when Marc was in the desert, and told at least one terrible story.
Recurring sit-ins
The show also maintained a deep bench of experts, including David DeMarco, relationship expert and author of How To Score in 38 Minutes (Or Less) for Less than $4.99, later available in robotic wingman form; The Love Robot, who accurately answered your questions; Johnny Nightmare, proprietor of a ghoulish Halloween spooktacular; and Lampidi Stelami, who sang the hits. Braden from Low Budget FM Corporate did his best to stifle the show creatively.
