"Women" w/ Macy Rodman (GaytioLab) Jun 27, 2023

Show notes

Today we at StraightioLab Inc. are thrilled to celebrate Pride by presenting a special, potentially once-in-a-lifetime episode of our sister podcast GaytioLab, the podcast that unpacks gay culture. That's right! Up is down, down is up, and gay guys are basically girls this week as we turn the spotlight on ourselves and our community with icon Macy Rodman. After deliberating over many topics, we decide to talk about women. Is stanning toxic? Is Laura Bush putting the "Questioning" back in LGBTQ? And is the word "complex" the new c-word? Yes, yes, and needless to say yes! We can never be wrong so let's cheers to that, mawmas!

"Dairy" w/ Amy Zimmer Jun 20, 2023

Show notes

StraightioLab All-Star Amy Zimmer returns to the hot seat along with her introverted friend "Kelly" for an episode that defies all categorization. We psychoanalyze the "undecided voter" archetype, invent a subversive new eyebrow trend, and speculate on Barbie's religious affiliation, all before turning our attention to the topic of the hour: DAIRY. What types of cheese are conservative and what types are progressive? How "fraiche" can store-bought creme fraiche really be? And finally: mold? Well it's not that simple...

"Wraps" w/ Peter Smith Jun 13, 2023

Show notes

This week our disgusting little podcast is classed up by someone who finally understands the power of showbiz: Peter Smith. We cover the wrap, which is one of the most dishonest foods available to the American public and yet also one that has continued to thrive since roughly 1992. But it's not the 90's anymore, sweetheart, and it's time to move on and learn the word "burrito." Plus, in a twist Sam learns empathy for people living in Pennsylvania, George developes a speaker series that is sure to rake in the big bucks, and Peter gives a shoutout that big government will want to slap a warning label on. But you can't censor the truth, especially during pride month!

"Hot Dogs" w/ Jamie Loftus Jun 06, 2023

Show notes

Sorry, what was that? We couldn't hear you because we were reading the New York Times bestselling book RAW DOG by our illustrious guest Jamie Loftus. That's right, welcome to our first episode fully sponsored by a book — it's called elevating women's stories, sweetie! Jamie dishes on her cross-country hot dog road trip and we all swap hot dog anecdotes that range from the uplifting to the downright NASTY! Also discussed: the aesthetics of office buildings, the continued rise of post-meaning language, and the shadowy elitism of Los Angeles farmer's markets. So fire up the grill, throw some wieners on there, and smash that play button, because it's time to RELISH (!) another episode of the most lucrative podcast in North America.

"Mayonnaise" w/ Sam Sanders May 30, 2023

Show notes

Today we are joined by Sam Sanders, the host of Into It and Vibe Check, to discuss the most intersectional condiment of all: Mayonnaise. Is it French and chic? Or is it American and family values? Both? Neither? Not even the USDA knows. But our conversation isn't just food related, we also cover how the Delta SkyLounge will make us lose our morals, the deal with the new Little Mermaid, and whether politics need more or less emotions right now. This episode WILL save democracy. And that's the StraightioLab promise!

"Jersey Knit" w/ Greta Titelman May 23, 2023

Show notes

Today we are joined once again by StraightioLab favorite and Sam's sexy Los Angeles-based stepmother Greta Titelman to finally talk TEXTILES. Specifically, the most insidious textile of all... one that haunts college dorm rooms and overpriced bachelor pads across this once-great nation... that's right, we're talking about jersey knit. Should sheets be a giant T-shirt? Should clothes be made using "technology"? Is the middle class dying? These questions are not only connected, but impossible to disentangle. Until now.

"Sleepovers" w/ Aparna Nancherla May 16, 2023

Show notes

This week we invite the unironically illustrious Aparna Nancherla on to shift our perspectives on many of the leading issues of the day. Issues like the ethics of reading a popular book years after everyone else, the sadness of European's attachment to their rich historic cultures, and the power structures of the average sleepover. Plus, a heated debate on the merits of warm ice cream causes a great divide. Hope you like conflict!

"Carpeting" w/ George and Sam May 09, 2023

Show notes

This week we are defiantly going GUEST-LESS to discuss the wall-to-wall elephant in the room: carpets. We walk on them, we clumsily spill red wine on them, and we ask if they "match the drapes." But what's lurking underneath America's obsession with, well, covering what's underneath? It's dark, it's sinister, and it's tearing our country apart. Or is it? Why don't you sit your ass down on a gorgeous (but not child-safe) hardwood floor and find out...

"Dating Shows" w/ Sydnee Washington May 02, 2023

Show notes

This week, we are joined by StraightioLab darling Sydnee Washington who takes us on a roller coaster ride of intellectual rigor. We talk dating shows, and surprisingly find ways to make them even more problematic, exploitative, and legally questionable than they already are. Plus, we pit going to law school against going viral on TikTok, we get upstaged by a haunted razor, and George unloads traumus both of chosen and not-chosen family. Now we can finally all heal.
