In honor of our friend Ramy Youssef's recent SNL performance, and the overwhelming success of his Academy Award winning film Poor Things, we're rerunning our episode with him! Come join us as Penn falls in love with our guest, Ramy Youssef (award-winning actor, producer, and stand-up comic). Ramy shares what it was like to be a Muslim kid in New Jersey the day after 9/11, why he loves Jesus but won't eff with Santa, and why in middle school he literally would have rather shit his pants than miss out on a good time. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today we're rerunning our Taylor Tomlinson episode in celebration of the release of her new Netflix special "Have It All"! You may know her from her other Netflix specials, "Quarter Life Crisis" and "Look at You", but this week's guest, the bright, witty, and ludicrously funny Taylor Tomlinson, feels duped! She thought she was coming on for a breezy conversation on first periods and childhood crushes, and instead found herself deep in a conversation on heartbreak, rejection, death, and mental illness. The hosts hold nothing back, too, this week as they reflect on sudden loss and middle school trauma. This is a special episode of Podcrushed you won't wanna miss.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ziwe, a comedian and pop star in the making, joins the podcast to share stories of adolescence and coming of age. She discusses the importance of being herself, updates on her future pop stardom, and shares insights on success. The conversation touches on differentiated teaching, interactive learning, personal growth, embarrassing middle school stories, first crushes, provocative moments, fault versus responsibility, and a casual conversation about a New Year's Eve song.

Renowned psychotherapist and relationship expert Esther Perel shares her wisdom on love, conflict, and human connection. She answers personal questions from her new game 'Where Should We Begin' and discusses worst dates and delicate family dynamics. The podcast covers topics like relationship advice, challenges of vulnerability, navigating conflict, childhood influence on relationships, and relationship myths.

Katie Florence, who navigated grief and used humor to heal and survive devastating losses, shares her experiences with loss, grief, and attending multiple funerals. She discusses the importance of allowing oneself to grieve in their own way and challenges societal expectations. The chapter also explores the power of forgiveness and embracing mistakes for personal growth.

Actress Charlotte Ritchie shares embarrassing gymnastics mishaps and discusses her audition process for the role of Kate in season four of 'YOU'. She and Penn speculate on the future of the series and share advice for their 12-year-old selves.

In a full circle moment, on this EXTRA CREDIT episode we connect with Quinn Hardy (@quinickle) — a content creator whose plea for Penn to "duet" him went viral last year. He talks all things bullying, social media infamy, and gets surprisingly philosophical.Follow Podcrushed on Socials: InstagramTikTokXSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
