I Said No Gifts! A comedy interview podcast with Bridger Winegar
On I Said No Gifts!, host Bridger Winegar invites friends, loved ones and people he’s secretly trying to destroy to join him for conversation and a game or two. He only has one request: No gifts!

Guests including Weird Al Yankovic, Nicole Byer, Paul Scheer, Betsy Sodaro, Paul F. Tompkins and D’Arcy Carden have disobeyed the rules and bombarded the gracious host with a thoughtful or useless gift. Sometimes both.
