I co-hosted this week's Culturetopia with NPR arts reporter Felix Contreras, and we led off with Felix's piece on the new late-night shows from Wanda Sykes and George Lopez, who are giving the genre a shot of diversity.

We listened to a discussion with cartoonist R. Crumb about his illustrated version of the Book of Genesis, then moved on — logically enough — to a look at popular New York noodle restaurant Momofuku.

Having covered the Bible and noodles, we went on to filmmaking with the couple that brought you Napoleon Dynamite and the new film Gentlemen Broncos, and finally heard Magic Johnson and Larry Bird talk about their surprising and enduring friendship, which they talk about in a new book.

As always, you can subscribe to the podcast here, or listen below, and see if you can spot the parts where we were getting a little punchy.
