List of Podcast Segments

Throughout the course of Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone; the cast features several reoccurring segments that do little to establish any real sense of order or reason, to Adam Felber's dismay. To date, (Not counting Expert Guest interviews or the sparodic Hundredth Caller Contest), the following reoccurring segments have appeared on Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone:

* "**The Cold Open"** **~** Beginning around Episode #180, the Cast introduce their podcast using something called a 'Cold Open.' Bonnie Burns quickly became bored with this segment, so Paula and Adam agreed to stop doing it.
* **Auctions ~** Paula Poundstone frequently uses the podcast as a platform for auctioning rare items of historical significance to listeners, in an unofficial segment that has persisted through much of the show. It's unclear how exactly these items are obtained, or how, in one instance, Paula and Adam wind up selling an entire 18th century boat.
* **"Department of Corrections" ~** A since discontinued segment in which Adam and Paula would, (contrary to what the title might imply), read corrections to various statements made during previous episodes, and argue as to why they were correct anyways.
* **"Movie Reviews of the Original to Determine Whether or Not You Should See the Sequel" ~** An infrequent and poorly named segment in which Paula and Adam watch the original film whenever a new movie comes out to determine whether or not Nobodies should watch the sequel. The 'original' film becomes less related to the original as the segment continues.
* **"French Trump Weekly Press Conference" ~** A segment that quickly diverged into its own mini podcast after its initial run; in which the French version of former President Donald Trump holds a conference with the press.
* **"Toni Anita Hull & Bonnie Burns International Oral Reports" ~** An infrequent segment in which Toni Anita Hull and Bonnie Burns are tasked with doing an oral report on a new country in which the podcast has become popular. This began with their report on Moldova, and is generally credited with alienating their four Moldovian listeners from the podcast.
* **"Potluck Info Party" ~** A segment in which each member of the Podcast is tasked with bringing an interesting bit of information to the podcast, after which the cast discusses various unrelated digressions at length.
* **"Toni's Crafting Corner" ~** A controversial segment in which Toni Anita Hull attempted and failed to teach the rest of the cast how to do Origami. Toni, (who spends the vast majority of her time crafting), constantly begs the rest of the cast for more installments of this segment.
* **"Who's Miss Quotey-Pants Now?" ~** A worryingly named variant of the Potluck Info Party, in which the cast finds interesting quotes to discuss instead.
* **"The Vocabulary Song" ~** The most persistent segment of the podcast, in which Paula Poundstone plays her glockenspiel while singing about the week's vocabulary word. Adam does not believe her song is replicable.
* **"Simple Sample Dialogue" ~** A reoccuring segment in the early days of the podcast, in which Paula gives listeners questionable advice on how to spread the word about their podcast. This segment went on a lengthy hiatus during the pandemic, before reappearing without warning in Episode #202 with the elevator music from the Stanley Parable, for no clearly explained reason.
* **"Outside the Actor's Studio" ~** An infrequent segment in which Paula Poundstone interviews a famous actor, and then performs a skit, (written by herself), with the podcast's guest. Paula initially wanted to interview Meryl Strep, but she eventually got bored and left after the cast was unable to move a walrus out of the way of the entrance of Ray Horseman Studios.
* **"Two Truths and a Lie" ~** A segment in which each Cast Member is asked to give two truths and a lie, in order for the Cast to guess which statement is false. Despite the seemingly simple formula, the segment is riddled with confusion and rarely follows its own established rules
* **"Garden Time with Captain Crinkle" ~** A segment in which Captain Crinkle, (Bonnie Burns), gives confusing and long-winded gardening advice, or, rather, discusses her various mistakes in the world of gardening. It debuted on Episode #210.
* "**Lifehacks with Captain Crinkle" ~** A recently debuted segment in which Captain Crinkle gives confusing and long-winded life advice, or, rather, discusses her various mistakes in the game of life. It debuted on Episode #253.
* **"The Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone Book Club" ~** A somewhat more recent segment in which the cast reads and discusses various questionably selected books. The Book Club began with Herman Melville's 'Moby Dick,' which established its premise of discussing anything besides the book itself.
