Jake Johnson (New Girl, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse) and Gareth Reynolds (The Dollop) don't feel qualified to give strangers good advice. Most of their friendship over the last 15 years has been based around dumb bits, but they do (for better or worse) want to try to help people out. Like your friendly local bartender or your tipsy uncle at a family gathering, Jake and Gareth are on the caller's side and trying to help. Each episode, the guys make several pitches to callers (whose questions range from trivial to serious) with their best attempts of advice. They can't promise their suggestions will be perfect, but it will be the best they've got. Jake and Gareth also occasionally bring on a friend, peer or even an expert to help along the way.

Customer Reviews
The wedding speeches, had me in steechches
I cannot explain how funny this episode is, I was crying listening to it, walking to collect my kids from school, in tears, close to convulsing with laughter, passing by people looking as unhinged as Lamorne’s input is. I’m listening from the beginning and this was my latest episode. Every episode is mayhem… in the most helpful way.
So funny
Love Jake Johnson now live Gareth Reynolds, they have great guests and the callers need advice for some great problems 😂
