We have some exciting news: your favorite tumblr assemblage of crappy wikipedia prose is now a podcast! That’s right, the Citation Needed Podcast debuts today!

Since we rarely offer up commentary on the entries we post here, (preferring that they stand alone like the fine works of art they are), this podcast will give us the chance to expand upon some of the more ridiculous ones. Skits, discussions, songs, treatises, rants - anything is possible.

In episode 1, you’ll find a hapless screenwriter pitching a movie based on its wikipedia plot summary, a cat owner who would be a lot better off if he had read the entry about his cat, a profound literary discussion, and a peek behind the legal battle over by a certain fashion item sported by the Super Bowl champs, plus a special guest. All based on entries we’ve previously published here.

Does this sound really nerdy? We admit that it does. But it also turned out really funny, and we hope you’ll download it and pass it along!
