Things got super awkward for this week's Urly Show podcast and it wasn't due to Kelly's newest opening theme dance moves. It was because our guests were Mike Bender and Doug Chernack, the founders, curators, 2009 Urlies recipients and now-authors from Awkward Family Photos! We asked the boys about some of our favorite pictures from the site, they graciously gave answers to all of our awkward questions and even allowed us to take photos that tried to be awkward but actually make them look like rockstars.
Also, Mike and Doug signed a copy of their book for us to give away to a very lucky Urlesque reader. How do you win? Watch or listen to the podcast and find out!

What a great idea to elevate the awkward family photo to a position of honor. Long overdue! The podcast also reminded me of Saturday Night Live's skit of NPR, especially Lindsey's voice! Very entertaining all around!
