Couples Therapy

Langston, Langston, Langston, that's right, we've got stand-up and writer Langston Kerman on the show today, and what a barnburner it is! If you don't know Langston, he's written for everything from Pause with Sam Jay to the Oscars to Kenan and acted in everything from The Boys to Insecure to Bless This Mess. And on today's episode, we discuss how he knew his wife was the one, his "famously caucasian" dad and some step-mom woes, and as always, lots of talk about teaching SAT test prep!

Creator of Comedy Crossing, stand-up and writer Jenny Yang joins us today (you might also know Jenny as a former writer for Busy Tonight and as one of Variety's "10 Comics to Watch" in 2020), and what a gosh darn joy it was! We taped this a lil' while ago when Mabel had first started peeing everywhere, and we really needed this talk to drag us out of our despair! Jenny tells us all about the void inside her, her addiction to beefcake boys and the transformation that led her to like guys' soft, gooey centers! PLUS, of course, we answer YOUR advice questions!

Podcast queen and power couple Lauren Lapkus and Mike Castle might just be The Most Wholesome Couple™ we've ever had on the show!

We hope you enjoy the feeling of enjoyment, because we've got two people on today's show that radiate fun and cheer like a gosh darn neutron bomb! That's right, Chris Colfer and Ashley Fink of Glee join us for a gold ol' fashioned recorded hang.

Paul Scheer was in the "graduating class" at UCB a few years before we started there, so besides making a lot of cool stuff we like (How Did This Get Made?, Black Monday, Human Giant, The League, Unspooled, Crash Test and so on!) - which would already make us nervous to talk to him - there's also an extra aura of "freshmen talking to a senior" that made us ANXIOUS before we started recording. HOWEVER, it couldn't have been more fun and natural chatting with Paul, and a discussion about the perils of carpooling leads into talk about this DISGUSTING industry we all work in which leads into some REAL TALK about relationships, and gosh darn, we couldn't have had a lovelier time!

This week, we take a bit of a detour from the "usge" as we talk to, as Naomi calls them, "the hot version of us", yes that's right Lauren Speed and Cameron Hamilton, two the stars of the Netflix reality show Love is Blind! Lauren and Cameron were on the whistlestop tour for their new book Leap of Faith when they Zoomed into our apartment, and what an absolute freakin' delight they were! We get into the life circumstances that led them to say "Screw it, I'm going to try and fall in love on a reality show", the truth behind Reality, and the difficulties of being America's new premiere interracial couple (IRC)! PLUS, of course, we answer YOUR advice questions! If you'd like to ask advice questions, call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM or just DM us on IG or Twitter!

(Just a sound note for all the audiophiles in the audience, one of the files was corrupted, so we had to use a back-up audio source for Lauren and Cameron - it sounds pretty good still for a post-Quar recording, but we just wanted to drop a note!)

Cool customer and hot comedian Joel Kim Booster (Singled Out, Big Mouth, Urgent Care pod, stand-up... more!) makes his triumphant return to the pod, and baby, even though he is fighting food poisoning, we are just basking in his presence! How might Joel make a tractor show better? Find out inside! What kind of relationship shape might Joel be open to? Find out inside! Should we make "I get it, you're horny" t-shirts? Find out inside!
