What is the dumbest show you can imagine? This award-winning show may be dumber.
It has no content. No format. Yet it's going on ten years of delighting hundreds of thousands of people. It's been an iTunes editors choice, and Rolling Stone picked it as one of the world's best comedy podcasts. It's light in the dark, comfort in the cold and a penguin in the pants (long story).
Join hosts Jesse Thorn (NPR's Bullseye) and Jordan Morris (Comedy Central's @Midnight) and a celebrity guest on a raucous, vulgar and warm-hearted romp that will probably leave you a better person. And will certainly make you dumber.

Customer Reviews
Stupid show smart people like
I got into JJGO several years ago after an ad they put out that called it the stupid show smart people like, and I have to say that it has remained that ever since. Jordan and Jesse are a good hang with laser-sharp comedic instincts. It's a show so good, it doesn't need a premise (the premise is riffing).
My favorite person on the show
is Gracie Thorn.
Most fun show about nothing!
Have been listening to this show since it started. Two college buddies started a show at UC Santa Cruz and just kept podcasting for almost 20 years now. Jordan is one of the funniest and quickest minds out there. Jesse’s sense of humor and arcane references, coupled with his NPR host skills, lend a false seriousness that makes the silliness of Ben more fun. They do a great job cracking wise with their guests and I don’t know what else to say but I love this show.
