In this extra-special tandem episode, Josie and Dr. Mark lead a dual advice panel at none other than C.R.U.S.H. that tests their working relationship in more ways than one. Along for the ride are a bard with equestrian troubles, a co-parrot-parent, a greasy skink-girl, and someone who's looking for love in all the wrong shelters.

Our callers included the talents of Miranda Warzel, Neill Fleming, Dana DeRuyck, and Meghan Falcone. Featuring Shawn Ahmed as Dr. Mark. Our story editor is Aliza Brugger.

Josie’s Lonely Hearts Club is a semi-improvised audio drama set in the studio of New Mexico’s 2nd-best relationship call-in show. On-air, Josie (Rachel Music, How Do They Bone?) mends the broken hearts of a weekly collection of hilarious improvisers. Off-air, listeners get to eavesdrop on the life of Josie’s secret identity: shy, unassuming Joanne Holtzinger. Join Joanne and her puckish producer Frank (Maximilian Clark, Superhuman Public Radio), while they navigate the pitfalls of love and fame as the show slowly becomes a national sensation.
