"Matchmaking" w/ Naomi Fry Feb 09, 2021

Show notes

She's running... a non-inclusive matchmaking service for straights ONLY! The New Yorker's Naomi Fry joins the boys to dish about the moment she knew she was destined for comedy greatness and the murder she committed after being radicalized by misandrist Tumblr before offering her analysis of the Chromatica Oreo's place in the American imaginary. This episode signals a new era for the pod... and that's ALL we're going to say...

"Framed Movie Posters" w/ Josh Gondelman Feb 02, 2021

Show notes

Get out your graph because this episode featuring the employed (but we won't say where) Josh Gondelman is all over the X, Y, and even Z axis. That's right, George, Sam, and Josh each open up their respective curtains to reveal which embarrassing movie posters they had as decor in a jaw-dropping tell-all. Plus, is this a podcast in theory or in practice? Has a Kinsey 1 ever been to space? And should they reboot Nurse Jackie?? We don't have the answers, but we aren't afraid to ask the questions.

"Dogs" w/ Spike Einbinder Jan 26, 2021

Show notes

This week, we welcome quadruple threat (comedian, actor, dog walker, and real-life StraightioLab listener) Spike Einbinder for a graduate seminar on interspecies relationships, canine compulsory heterosexuality, and the borderline right-wing politics of the dog park. Plus: Does Sam think Santa is real? What is George's scandalous family secret? And WHAT is the DEAL with overnight oats?!

"Miscommunication" w/ Sydnee Washington Jan 19, 2021

Show notes

In this succinct, concise, and needless to say efficient episode of the famously good podcast StraightioLab, George and Sam welcome the hot-but-relatable Sydnee Washington on to talk all things miscommunication. Plus, is it a red flag to have an incredible body at this point in the pandemic? Are Facebook ads better than Instagram ads? And is the lack of a video component the only thing stopping this from being an alt-right podcast? I sure hope not!

"Hygge" w/ Julia Shiplett Jan 12, 2021

Show notes

As George and Sam try to give structure to the pod once and for all, they welcome structure consultant and style guru Julia Shiplett to whip them into shape. Julia then delves into her passion for hygge, which is either "the concept, art, and culture around the idea of coziness" or "when you shimmy your shoulders up to your ears while holding a mug." Plus: Will George ever get it together and decorate his apartment? And more importantly, does it matter?

"Cheating" w/ Cole Escola Jan 05, 2021

Show notes

Sam and George kick off the New Year with a bang-sorry-I mean an extended advertisement from tv personality and mogul Cole Escola that actually raises more questions than it answers. The trio also unpacks cheating and whether or not you should dump your man if he goes to therapy/loves himself/opens his eyes around other people. The answer? Yes. So enjoy, happy new year, and if you're at the polls, STAY IN LINE.

"Traditions" w/ Patti Harrison Dec 22, 2020

Show notes

'Tis the season to finally welcome the inimitable Patti Harrison to the pod to chat about her experience organizing treasonous misinformation campaigns during the 2020 election.

"VHS Tapes" w/ Nick Naney Dec 15, 2020

Show notes

Can a podcast...be juicy? We find out the answer is yes as this normal conversation with cinephile Nick Naney about the streaming service Mubi takes a hard left turn to unpacking Sam and Nick's sordid past. We get to the bottom of what it means to be a Kinsey 1 and how hooking up can actually be one of the best ways to make a friend. Now will somebody please make a "Mank" style movie about the making of this episode and stream it on Moby's head?! It would actually be touching.
