Zosia Mamet and Jake Shane Are Obsessed | Introducing OMG Obsessed with Zosia Mamet Sep 16, 2026

Show notes

Zosia Mamet is an obsessive person. So, naturally, she made a podcast about it.

On her brand new podcast from Lemonada Media, OMG Obsessed, Zosia sits down with some of her favorite people to get to the bottom of the things they simply cannot shut up about. The comfort show they’ve watched 43 times. The skincare routine with approximately 11,000 steps. The niche internet rabbit hole they entered at 2 a.m. and never truly escaped.

And Zosia brings plenty of obsessions of her own including a horse named Steven, interspecies friendship, her Peloton instructor’s divorce arc, tiny tomatoes that pop in your mouth, and the deeply compelling theory that geese are drones. She contains multitudes. And tabs.

Every episode comes loaded with recommendations for what to watch, read, buy, try, and immediately become weirdly passionate about.

Because no obsession is dumb. Concerning? Sure. Weird? Obviously. But dumb? Never.

New episodes every Wednesday from Lemonada Media. Listen to and follow OMG Obsessed with Zosia Mamet wherever you get your podcasts.
