He's no snob -- he devours shows like 'Mad Men' and 'Enlightened, ' and with Rico Gagliano hosts a public-radio show called 'The Dinner Party Download, ' an omnivorous guide to arts and culture that broadcasts nationally. But Mr. Newnam recalls several gatherings that bogged down when fans of a show he doesn't watch, 'Breaking Bad, ' waxed on about Walter White, Jesse Pinkman and other complex characters. 'It's like they were talking about friends from high school, but I went to a different high school, ' he says.

他并不是愤世嫉俗之人，他也喜欢看《广告狂人》和《顿悟人生》(Enlightened)等电视剧，并与里柯•加格里亚诺(Rico Gagliano)一同主持一档名为《The Dinner Party Download》的公共电台节目，这是一档在全美范围内播出的，对艺术与文化话题无所不包的入门级节目。不过，他记得有几次聚会陷入了僵局，当时他没看的《绝命毒师》的一群粉丝专注讨论着沃尔特•怀特(Walter White)、杰西•平克曼(Jesse Pinkman)和其他一些复杂的角色。他说：“那就像他们在讨论高中时期的朋友，而我上的是另外一所不同的高中。”

Still, Mr. Newnam says he prefers talk of TV minutiae to that of viral videos, which often cause guests to whip out phones and laptops so they can compare YouTube clips. 'When that happens, ' he says, 'we might as well be eating frozen TV dinners by ourselves.'

尽管如此，纽纳姆说与如病毒般传播的视频相比，他还是更喜欢对电视剧细节的讨论，前者往往会让参加聚会的人纷纷掏出手机和笔记本电脑以便比较YouTube上的视频。他说：“如果这样的话，我们还不如自己吃着冷冻快餐呢。”
