Excellent Comedy Podcast

I have been a STG listener for several months now and i felt compelled to extoll its virtues in a review. Nathan is so funny and had a great rapport with all of their interviewees. Nathan dives so deep and is always so prepared for the interviews that they often catch the guest off-guard. I feel completely comfortable saying that Nathan Pearson is THE Terry Gross of queer comedy podcast hosts! Can’t wait to hear what comes next.
