StraightioLab

This week we are saying "hello" or potentially even "bonjour" (if it isn't too culturally insensitive) from our live show at the Just For Laughs festival in Montreal. We speak with comedian, thought leader, and Justin Trudeau truther Robby Hoffman about, quite frankly, everything. That's right, her topic is Everything and actually that isn't even broad enough for our conversation. We cover mother-based gun ownership, the delights of poutine, and even gay men's interior design choices. Plus, Robby has a call to action that will have you running away from the voting booth this election cycle. Let this episode radicalize you!

This week we're joined in the studio by bisexual SAG member and proud returning guest Mary Beth Barone, who keeps threatening to leave both social media and the entertainment industry for good! After we assess the current state of standup comedy (no notes) we turn to a very intriguing straight topic: the idea of having friends "from home," as in from your childhood or, god forbid, adolescence! Plus: we officially start a war against Letterboxd cinephiles and discuss the eroticism of an oversized white button-down (unless you're a gay guy). The world is a fascinating place, and we are THIS close to figuring it all out!

Today we are coming at you in complete accordance with strike rules by having the illustrious Liza Treyger on the podcast and refusing to talk about any past, present, or future projects she has been involved in. Instead, we cover the real issues like whether or not Eva Mendez is being held somewhere against her will, the hidden agenda of YouTube shorts, and whether you should have a kid when you're really young or really old. Plus, we have a stunningly succinct conversation on axe throwing because bigger isn't always better (sorry to all size queens)!

You've read the title of this episode, and you're already furious. "AUNTIES?!" you scream. "They are NOT straight!!" Well first of all calm down — you are contributing to the crisis of political polarization in this country, and it's not a cute look. And second of all, maybe hear out our illustrious guest Rachel Pegram before getting your gender-neutral Pride-edition Skims in a twist! Questions include: How does the online behavior of aunties remind us of our shared humanity? Who is the most powerful auntie in America? Plus: George is jumping on the toxic positivity bandwagon, Sam is undecided about the virtues of Vermont, and Rachel is speaking out against the natural pool movement!

It's time for our biannual Earnestness Bonanza, where we DROP THE ACT and answer listener questions as earnestly as possible. So put that Alison Roman pasta salad in a giant Tupperware and press play on this baby on your way to a gay barbecue that reclaims the concept of patriotism via cheeky costumes!

Today we at StraightioLab Inc. are thrilled to celebrate Pride by presenting a special, potentially once-in-a-lifetime episode of our sister podcast GaytioLab, the podcast that unpacks gay culture. That's right! Up is down, down is up, and gay guys are basically girls this week as we turn the spotlight on ourselves and our community with icon Macy Rodman. After deliberating over many topics, we decide to talk about women. Is stanning toxic? Is Laura Bush putting the "Questioning" back in LGBTQ? And is the word "complex" the new c-word? Yes, yes, and needless to say yes! We can never be wrong so let's cheers to that, mawmas!

StraightioLab All-Star Amy Zimmer returns to the hot seat along with her introverted friend "Kelly" for an episode that defies all categorization. We psychoanalyze the "undecided voter" archetype, invent a subversive new eyebrow trend, and speculate on Barbie's religious affiliation, all before turning our attention to the topic of the hour: DAIRY. What types of cheese are conservative and what types are progressive? How "fraiche" can store-bought creme fraiche really be? And finally: mold? Well it's not that simple...

This week our disgusting little podcast is classed up by someone who finally understands the power of showbiz: Peter Smith. We cover the wrap, which is one of the most dishonest foods available to the American public and yet also one that has continued to thrive since roughly 1992. But it's not the 90's anymore, sweetheart, and it's time to move on and learn the word "burrito." Plus, in a twist Sam learns empathy for people living in Pennsylvania, George developes a speaker series that is sure to rake in the big bucks, and Peter gives a shoutout that big government will want to slap a warning label on. But you can't censor the truth, especially during pride month!Tickets to our June 15 live show at the Bell House are available here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/straightiolab-tickets-635485553397Subscribe to our Patreon at patreon.com/straightiolab for bonus episodes twice a month and don't forget to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
