Gianmarco Soresi

Taped weeks and weeks ago before the bottom fell out of our (albeit, already-failing) democracy, stand-up Gianmarco Soresi joins us from road, doing a weekend in Ohio. Now you may know Gianmarco from his stand-up, either in person or online or maybe even from his Netflix set as part of the Verified series, or from his podcast The Downside, but even if you don't know him at all, you will fall in love after today's ep! While we spend the first few minutes feeling each other out - are we being serious? are we just goofing? are we really going to talk about doing stand-up on TikTok? - we quickly get into the good stuff: why Gianmarco doesn't want to get married, how he met his girlfriend in lockdown, estranged dads and SO MUCH MORE! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions! If you'd like to ask your own advice questions, call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM or just DM us on IG or Twitter! Support the show on Patreon (two extra exclusive episodes a month!) and even gift someone a Patreon subscription! Or get yourself a t-shirt or a discounted Quarantine Crew shirt! And why not leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts? Or Spotify? It takes less than a minute! Follow the show on Instagram! Check out CT clips on YouTube! Plus some other stuff!

AsapSCIENCE

Our podcast parent Acast thought we might get along swimmingly with the boys of AsapSCIENCE, so they suggested a crossover, and buddy, were they ever right! Taped a few weeks ago before the US dropped off a cliff (maybe you can hear the light in our voices?), on today's episode, we're talking to couple and science educators Mitch Moffit and Greg Brown! Now, you might know Greg and Mitch from their hit YouTube channel AsapSCIENCE or from their wonderful podcast Sidenote (check us out on a recent ep!). Well, even if this is your first time meeting the duo, you're in for a treat! We get into how they met in college, how Mitch's time on the reality show Big Brother got *Greg* (and eventually Mitch himself) into therapy, going on dates with a conversation app and SO MUCH MORE! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions! If you'd like to ask your own advice questions, call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM or just DM us on IG or Twitter!

Markie Post, Niles!

After this week, and the US's decision to embrace whatever form of fascism the GOP is offering, you, dear listener, are perhaps feeling as shitty as we are. Sleeplessness. Doom scrolling. Brownies for breakfast. While this is not a balm for our political situation, we thought, "Why don't we record a bonus episode that will both distract us for an hour and also help the listeners take a break from that Germany 1933 feeling." So we offer to you four advice questions, some of which we've thought might be more difficult to answer with a guest. Hopefully, this gives you some slight reprieve... it was fun to record even though we had about four hours of sleep between the two of us!

Langston Kerman Returns

Our old friend Langston Kerman is back! We absolutely loved Langston's new Netflix special Bad Poetry and had to have him back to tell us what it was like to have a powerful white (John Mulaney produced and directed the special, and also Langston wrote on the fantastic Everybody's In LA) in your corner! But that's not all we talk about! We discuss how Langston was a big poetry dork in high school, yet still had the confidence to be popular. We talk about why he's not so into therapy. And of course, we talk about why Love Jones didn't cross over to white audiences. Something we talk about on almost every episode! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions! (And buddy we got two SCORCHERS fo you today!) If you'd like to ask your own advice questions, call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM or just DM us on IG or Twitter!

Zach Zimmerman

We're spreading our wings and stepping outside our comfort zone to talk to folks we think are funny, but that we don't know, and on today's episode with Zach Zimmerman, we are rewarded for our risk-taking! Cuz Zach is the bee's knees, the cat's pajamas, heck, he's even the tapir's cape!

And on today's ep we talk all about mother issues! Mother issues, conservative parents, and Andy tries to get Zach to explain the psychological inconsistencies in Evangelical Christianity... can he do it? PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions!

A testament: there are only 2 non-positive opinions you’ll see listed here, from 2 people who are confused about: 1. This show not suiting its parent brand - it’s…not a part of that brand at all! 2. Whether this show is a blatant copy of another show with the same name - this show preceded that show!! As such, I am gonna keep trying to resubmit this until it gets accepted…
Slug Life

26/07/2023

Charley&Gus

Hi! Wonderful podcast, wonderful people, wonderful animals. Let’s get into the story. Two years ago my brother-in-law married his lovely wife in a beautiful countryside manor in England. Just a note, I’m from the US but now live in England because of my English husband. Another note, there are a lot of slugs here. I’ve never really seen slugs back home (San Diego), but these things are everywhere here - I even found one in my hair once. Back to the story. The wedding was absolutely lovely and loads of fun, and was a very typical English do - lots and lots of drinks and food and dancing once everyone was drunk enough to no longer be embarrassed to have fun. Love was in the air infecting us all, especially between the bride’s best friend and her husband. On this big country estate there were a couple beautiful gardens, one more secluded than the other (romantic). It was full of flowers, greenery and quaint British wildlife like hedgehogs, robins and butterflies (very romantic). And lots and lots of slugs. The couple decided that this was the place they needed to express some intimacy - ie a blow job (cringe gross sorry) - once the wedding started winding down around midnight. They finished up, but the friend had a terrible realisation - she found a slug in her MOUTH. How long was it in there? Did she realise before or during that it was there but decided to power through? How did it wind up in her mouth in the first place? How did she not realise before? All of these questions and more are still on my mind 2 years later. I don’t know her well enough to ask about that night, but I hope for her sake that she’s been more careful.
