StraightioLab

Space Prince and Food Delivery King Julio Torres joins George and Sam on this episode that, quite frankly, shakes the StraightioLab universe to its core. The boys talk holidays, bi-erasure in the Lord of the Rings, and get an honest critique from Julio that leaves them questioning their very reason for podcasting. Points are made. And while they are not GOOD points necessarily, they are still points nonetheless.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fresh out of Twitter jail for impersonating Ivanka Trump, creator and star of Adult Swim's Three Busy Debras (more like Three Busy KARENS!) Sandy Honig joins the boys for a salon on bad 9/11 art, problematic LGBTQ foods, and the eternal question of modern life: How do you reconcile wanting to be mean with not wanting to hurt people's feelings? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

All attempts to make StraightioLab normal failed miserably this week as Sam and George welcomed Caleb Hearon onto an ep that Wired Magazine has called "riddled with technical difficulties." Nevertheless they persisted and managed to talk about the differences between straight vacations and gay vacations, what counts as "sports entertainment" and what is just sports, and whether or not kids can still ethically be named Milo. Also, this episode starts a feud worthy of a Ryan Murphy limited series, so listen and then choose which side you're on... bitch!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Taped during the nail-biting aftermath to last week's election, this episode of Pod Save America spinoff podcast StraightioLab considers the concept of politics (it's "famous people but make it ugly") before diving into a wide range of more pressing issues. Intellectual powerhouse Jay Jurden joins us to ask some inconvenient questions, such as: What is America's Next Top Model's relationship to the Iraq War? Who is G-Eazy? Does George speak English? And finally: Are hats "hot"? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode of StraightioLab is a time capsule to a simpler time (a little over a week ago) when election anxiety felt like a lifetime away, guest Annie Donley had not yet been cancelled for her heinous crimes, and Sam and George had not yet considered the politics of deli counters. Now? We are informed. We know better. And most importantly, we know when this episode comes out. So go vote and then treat yourself to this incredibly innovative podcast in which comedians discuss things.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The most important mind of our generation Robby Hoffman joins Sam and George for a comprehensive conversation about what is happening in society today. Gender, money, dating, interior design, democracy, the global art market... Nothing is off-limits, no one is safe, and no child gets left behind. If you're still breathing by the end of the episode, don't forget to watch Robby's weekly call-in show DYKEVICE Thursdays at 10pm EST here.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Are podcasts the new punk rock? Probably not, but we still ask this and more on this week's episode of StraightioLab with our sexually open guest Edy Modica. This episode explores all of our deepest fantasies like...what would it be like to open a restaurant, how does it feel when Sam and George get in a fight on air, and what's the sensation of listening to Sam turn trying and failing to turn his lights on. We also do a fully collaborative shoutout session, which actually did work.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Sam and George are joined by the reigning queen of horror comedy Sasheer Zamata to talk about the passion of LGBTQ+ ally Kathy Najimy, why voting needs to be more Instagram-friendly, and whether it's ethical to ruin someone's life because they posted a cringey video on Facebook. Plus: Sasheer and Sam reminisce about their improv days at UVA, and George lashes out because he feels left out. Listen, rate, subscribe, live, laugh, love, and while you're at it, stream Sasheer's new show Woke on Hulu and rent her new movie Spree on VOD!! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's the crossover event of the financial quarter, and thank God, because profits are plummeting! Talk Hole's Eric Schwartau and Steven Phillips-Horst join Sam and George for a no-holds-barred salon on some of the most important questions of our time, such as: Is podcasting art? What is the correct number of gay men that should co-exist in one space? Is Eric's Canadian boyfriend real? Clicky-clicky, time to press play!!! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on the normally tasteful pod StraightioLab, we get absolutely raunchy with Lorelei Ramirez. We call people fuckers, we talk about who's gonna pay for our steak and martini lunches, and we discuss Hillary Clinton's new catchphrase. That's right, dim the lights, make sure your parents aren't with you, and tune into this nasty episode. Also we touch on Carhartt clothing, but mostly all agree that it looks good, especially if you work in or aspire to work in film. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
