#93: "Violent Roommates & Porn Star Panic" - Dante Chang
Tuesday Apr 16, 2019
Tuesday Apr 16, 2019
Comedian Dante Chang has rolled with both the physical and metaphorical punches. The physical ones came from a 73 year Korean woman who was Dante's loving (in her own way) roommate. The metaphorical came from an STD scare after Dante went home with a porn star. Dante also talks about his love of baseball cards, some precarious sexual situations and how his life changed after getting married.

#92: "The Mother of All Problems" - Amber Falter
Tuesday Apr 09, 2019
Tuesday Apr 09, 2019
Comedian Amber Falter grew up with a mother who was an addict. As you can imagine this led to some pretty crazy, sad, ridiculous and yes, funny stories. Thankfully, Amber has been able to find the funny and looks towards the positives that came from the last time she saw her mom; the bond between her brothers and dad, the knowledge of who and what her mom were and the empowerment that came from not having her mom in her life. But that doesn't mean there weren't some crazy times; stealing, conning, withdraw farts and crackhead spaghetti are just a few of the topics Amber and Joe talk about.

Comedian Shapel Lacey started his entertainment career on the competitive cheerleading team in high school. He was on the team because of a girl he was crazy about. He and Joe talk about the lengths he was willing to go to win the heart of girls he hardly knew and who showed absolutely no interest in him. Shockingly, it didn't go well.

Tuesday Feb 19, 2019

Guest Jupiter Baudot hasn't spoken to his mom in four years thanks to the ridiculous pranks she pulled, her unstable behavior and the fact that Jupiter gets flashes of PTSD when he drives by her exit on the highway.
