It's been too long since actor, host, comic and woodworker Paul Gilmartin (The Mental Illness Happy Hour) has been on the show and we have a ton to catch up on. We discuss his divorce, boundaries, recovery, standup, an incredibly dark episode of MIHH, Dinner and a Movie, massage parlors, the urge to chat and more.

Tony's Return, Robin's Reunion, Todd's Odyssey Oct 19, 2023

Show notes

Tony Thaxton is back from his tour! I was unable to watch his band from one of his drum cymbals for reasons we get into but my story is bested by Todd Cooper's story. Robin Shorr is back from her college reunion and she experienced a little scare. We do a bunch of your Just Me Or Everyone's and I share a ridiculous social exchange I had.

Show notes

New York Times bestselling author and my Time Out New York coworker Elise Loehnen (On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to be Good) returns to talk about the way women are socialized to be "good" versus men who are socialized to be powerful. We discuss her podcast Pulling The Thread, the bible, patriarchy, never feeling good enough, Mary Magdalene, why sadness was dropped from the deadly sins, Substack, Joel Stein, motherhood, male wellness podcasters and so much more.

Public Goobers, Paris Disney, Quantz Method for Pants Sep 28, 2023

Show notes

Jordan Morris has joined us, fresh from the London Podcast Festival, and while he was there he stopped off at Paris Disney. Also he is the perfect person with whom to share the shocking news that I sort of want to go to Burning Man because he's actually gone. He got his taint rinsed and everything! Daniel has landed upon a new and improved way to remove pants and Jeff Fox may or may not be thinking about the Roman Empire.

The Return of Ben Gleib Sep 25, 2023

Show notes

Ben Gleib is here, fresh from Burning Man, and I think maybe I want to go to Burning Man one day? I did not expect to feel this way. Also he's wearing a chestful of necklaces and willing to explain each one. We talk about relationships and breakups, grief (we both lost our fathers this year), his recent dog bite, vintage ladies, the law of attraction, Venice and Topanga, the P word, seeing signs of your loved one in the world and so much more. We also did a round of Just Me Or Everyone and HGFY.

Sadie's Big Escape, Night Terrors, New Haterz! Sep 21, 2023

Show notes

(TW: self-harm)

Matt Lieb is here making his triumphant Thursday Show debut. Robin Shorr is also here, shaken up but okay after Sadie's grand escape. All these years later we can still attract some new haters and I want to know about the whole Emily Fleming boob fiasco from Matt's point of view. Elliot had a night terror and we're talking about limericks, Paul F. Tompkins's Halt and Catch Fire song and so much more.
