Another information-rich episode of the podcast as Boys of Summer continues with wrestler/author/podcaster Colt Cabana (Wrestling Anonymous), who turns the jock stereotype inside out, takes JV on a magical journey to the rainbow’s end, and goes totally Over the Top. 

I mean, it’s Chris Gethard, y’all! This Jersey-proud, deeply funny and deeply honest Boy of Summer talks high school, hot dogs, highs and lows, and so much more in this glorious episode.

Podcast Crossover! JV has one of the hosts from one of her own fave podcasts, Crimewriters On!  It’s author/journalist/umpire (& past guest Rebecca Lavoie’s true love) Kevin Flynn! Like a sundae from Friendly’s, this Boy of Summer ep is , has a lot going on, is full of sweet bits, and, of course, refreshing on a summer’s day.

It’s no surprise that this episode with Boy of Summer and Minority Korner (Max Fun’s own!) James Arthur M. is a love-fest (BTW, Happy Pride Month, friends!), but also a laugh-fest and a gab-fest. From Reese in “Election” to Tyra’s smize, there’s plenty to dig into and savor like a gorgeous piece of cake.

This week Boy of Summer and fellow only child Brandon Collins (Drunk Black History) takes JV from high school nautical arts to the fine streets of Manhattan and beyond, inspiring and delighting along the way!

Our first official Boy of Summer is JV’s wonderful and dear lifelong (from 4th grade onward!) friend, author Torran Anderson (His book Piñata Moon is available now!). Hear about the amazing work Torran is doing in partnership with the Navajo nation, and of course, memories that Torran and JV share from their own teen years in Tucson, AZ! 

It’s one of those trip-on-a-plastic-bag, fall-on-your-face, lose-a-tooth good times with the fantastic Jameela Jamil (The Good Place), who shares the soft underbelly horrors of adolescence with JV with such humility and humor, you’ll want to marry her immediately. Now let’s go find a dumpster of leftovers to celebrate!This episode was originally published in 2017.

Another awesome Max Fun podcast crossover! It’s Drea Clark, from the currently accurately-named “Untitled Drea, Ify and Alonso Project!” Dive into some Jane Austen love, some Jill Scott worship, and the strange and wonderful gift of crawling inside the right Guillermo del Toro masterpiece! 

It’s week 2 of Max Fun Drive! And what could be better than a backyard reenactment of “Death Becomes Her” starring this week’s guest, the hilarious Jo Firestone (Max Fun’s own Dr. Gameshow) and JV as “Mad” and “Hel”? NOTHING! But since they couldn’t make it happen (yet), enjoy this delightful episode of chatter about breads (the elusive potato and dutch crunch kinds), “Grease” conspiracy theories, and the weirdest romantic M.A.S.H. pairing yet.
