NOT A SANDWICH FEAT JAY HUNTER | EP 49 | REYDAR Jul 10, 2026

Show notes

Today on the couch, comedian Jay Hunter joins Reydar to talk about his path from the Navy and Army Reserve to engineering, stand-up, acting, and becoming his own increasingly unreliable boss. Jay shares the brutal bomb that changed how he performs, stories from strange commercials and indie productions, the pursuit of that first perfect laugh, and why a hot dog absolutely is not a sandwich. Along the way, the conversation spirals through fart impressions, Tubi movies, weaponized absurdity, Spam, lobster economics, cereal soup, and the sacred briefcase of serious business.

Show notes

On the couch today we have Ed Across the Street, the artist and tattooer behind years of iconic Chatterbox flyer art and some of the most recognizable illustrations to come out of the San Gabriel Valley. We talk about growing up in Covina, discovering tattooing, developing a unique artistic voice, and preparing for a big move to Houston. Along the way we dive into cartoons, sketchbooks, karaoke mishaps, creative process, and the strange little habits that shape artists over time. A fun conversation about art, community, and finding your path one drawing at a time.

DO BIRD SHIT FEAT JP PUTHENVEETIL | EP 47 | REYDAR Jun 26, 2026

Show notes

Today we hit the deep blue with JP Puthenveetil, comedian, animal enthusiast, and the only person we know willing to spend 24 hours inside a coffin for comedy. We dive into fascinating animal facts, the weirdest corners of nature, what it's like producing wild live shows, and why comedians might make the best filmmakers. Along the way we spiral into conversations about whales, birds, pudding, roast battles, film school, and the strange ideas that somehow become unforgettable stories.

BIG NICK ENERGY FEAT NICHOLAS JOHNSON | EP 46 | REYDAR Jun 25, 2026

Show notes

This week comedian Nick Johnson climbs aboard the submarine we talk standup, sketch videos, weird internet rabbit holes, and the random facts that somehow live rent-free in our heads. The conversation drifts from performing in front of Conan O'Brien and creating content with Mobile Homies to bizarre reality TV, gaming nostalgia, conspiracy-adjacent shower thoughts, fishing disasters, tattoos, cats, and why dolphins might be nature's biggest troublemakers.
