Nobody Cares is a podcast hosted by writer and person Anne T. Donahue (who totally cares, by the way). Each week, Anne is joined by a guest who shares something they're passionate about despite no one else feeling the same, and the two go down the rabbit hole of why, how, whom, and many other specifics. No topic is too small, too big, or too trivial, and by the end of their half-hour chat, it's safe to assume that regardless of how you felt going into it, you'll suddenly find yourself caring ...

Do you like podcasts? Terrific! Because you're listening to one. Also, because Arkells' Max Kerman could talk about how much he loves them forever, and certainly tries to when Anne's not interrupting him to talk about how she loves them even more. Podcasts! Certainly something that exists. You can follow Max and the Arkells on Instagram and on Twit…

You know what they say: the uglier the better -- and ironically, we're talking about beauty products! Join writers, editors, and hosts of the Breaking Beauty podcast Jill Dunn and Carlene Higgins as they fill Anne in on their favourite go-tos with the most questionable packaging.

DO YOU SMELL WHAT THE ROCK IS COOKING? This is a great question independently, but it is even better when writer, comedian, DJ, and co-creator of Toronto's Boosie Fade Jordan Sowunmi uses it in conversation with Anne about his love of WWF.

It's time to boldly go where no one has gone before: join Anne as she welcomes Mike On Much host Mike Veerman who has a lot to say about Star Trek (specifically TNG).

Currently, comedian Celeste Yim is living in New York, attending grad school. But before that, she was just like all other aspiring academics: heavily obsessed with filmschool.org.

Just remember to thank them both when this episode inspires a long-overdue S Club …

Every so often, a podcast spawns magic. And frankly, magic is the only word to describe writer Sarah Hagi's obsession with Garfield fan art, a strange, confusing, disturbing, and bananas thing that is much bigger than Anne could possibly be ready for. Join them both as they delve into a world so many of us had no idea existed or wanted to go to. An…

It's true: a lot of people care about basketball. But to be honest, Anne doesn't at all and Cadence Weapon does a lot. Which is why he sits down to talk to her about why he loves it, how it's a metaphor for bigger things, and why it's always been a big part of his life. Also, apologies for all Raptors references: at one point, we were all so hopefu…

Some of us watch reality television, others (hello) have memorized entire seasons of The Great British Bake Off.

You know what's cooler than a million dollars? Listening to writer Rachel Davies explain why she's obsessed with The Social Network.

Heartbreakingly, this podcast hasn't been executive produced by Dick Wolf, but don't let that small setback deter you. This week, writer and Drunk Feminist Film's Amil Niazi joins Anne to talk about Law and Order: SVU and the world it created for true crime fanatics. Plus: the best episodes, the worst, why it's a source of comfort despite being inh…

Crop circles, aliens, the Illuminati -- one of these subjects is boring and comedian, actor, and improviser Sarah Hillier doesn't bring it to the table. But the rest? And the allure of conspiracies altogether? And what they mean? And their downsides? Hello. Join Anne and Sarah as they talk about that strange airport with the mural (you know the one…

You can't always get what you want. At least, within reason. This week, writer, actor, and comedian Nelu Handa joins Anne to talk about MANIFESTING, and why her beliefs about it are less about The Secret and more about . . . well, you'll have to listen. Which isn't hard when Nelu begins generously sharing tales of her own professional arc. You can …

Writer Nourhan Hesham has a lot to say about Point Break -- but don't worry: she only cares about the good one. Join her as she goes in on why it's the ultimate love story, why it's a commentary on the myth of male masculinity, and how serious she is about all of it. (Also, Anne admits that she would be fine with robbing a bank.) (JK.) (Or not.) Yo…

Thanks to actor, writer, and comedian Paloma Nuñez, Anne gets to talk about something she and every Canadian baseball fan have feelings on: the Toronto Blue Jays.

Weeks before her move to New York City, comedian, actor, and writer Sara Hennessey stopped by to talk about NOSTALGIA -- something she and Anne know too much about.

Most of you probably care about The Bachelor, but few of you care quite as much as Drunk Feminist Films and Yes New Friends co-founder Amy Wood, who joins Anne this week.

You can follow Elamin …

This week, comedian, actor, and writer Aisha Brown sits down with Anne and explains why she (and everyone) should care about Fame.

This week, writer, editor, and Capsule98 creator Randi Bergman joins Anne to talk about a topic she's cared about even longer than clothing brands have been capitalizing on it: the 1990s.

Lauren Conrad. We love her. You love her? You should love her. This time Anne and I talked a lot about those early days when Lauren had very blonde hair, very Jason-esque dating tendencies, and whether or not Heidi could have been "saved". It was a lot of fun. Also it's our tenth episode! We deserve cake, or a Chanel bag. You can stream it below: Y…

A show that has become a bastion of British TV, Made In Chelsea uncovers the world of the rich -and mostly white - 20 somethings that populate this particular area of London. OR DOES IT?

This week Anne and I watched the pilot of that seminal TV hit The Wire. Neither of us have watched the show properly so we probably will really offend loads of Stringer Bell/Jimmy McNulty uberfans with our weird thoughts and uniformed opinions. Yay!

This time Anne and I watched and then talked about the pilot of Girls, and who would have guessed it would be the show that divided us more than any other so far? But then that's the great thing about great TV - the conversations. Even if the conversations ruin friendships, marriages and even podcasts (our one didn't do any of those things, but can…

Anne and I had a LOT to say about Dawson's Creek. Namely how beige Dawson's outfits are. And how they all use a lot of long words which nobody in real life ever uses unless they're reading their dissertation aloud to their mum. In other news, how photoshopped is this press photo (below) of the gang?! And why is Jen/Michelle Williams wearing a banda…

Here is the fourth episode of my podcast with the amazing Anne T. Donahue in which we watch a pilot separately, then talk about it together.

We also discussed Harry Potter in quit…
