College Stories

Jay Nog is the comedian you’re not surprised was part of a fraternity that got kicked off campus. He went to SUNY-Albany (9-time #1 party school according to Princeton Review), pledged a frat immediately, had messy breakups with just about every roommate he ever had, and has a cautionary tale about having a long-term “friend...

Jason Kanter attended THE Ohio State University, and his stories are so nuts that he can’t include last names in almost any of them. Except NFL hall of famer Lynn Swann — that dude gets NAMED. Jason was president of his fraternity in college, and around him, cars were lit on fire (allegedly), beers exploded...

Oh boy, where do we START with this one? Subhah Agarwal (comedian/TV writer) drops by to talk about being a quasi-valedictorian, snorting things so she could work harder, and working as a clown, on a boat, in Pittsburgh. WHAT? Right. Subhah is an NYC-based stand up comic and regular at The Stand, and she has...

Patrick Monahan is a comedian who is one of the absolute best follows on Twitter. He’s got that blue checkmark, son! Check him out @pattymo and enjoy. Patrick is NOT the guy from Train (of the same name), but he IS the guy who helped popularize the “Ted Cruz is the zodiac killer” online, a Georgetown...

The junior year of College Stories kicks off with producer Nick Pride, who talks about a Florida summer camp he worked at in college where he got buff and found a wife. With Nick as a guest, we get the bonus of appearances of a bunch of camp weirdos via impressions. We caught up with Nick...

The school year is kicking off once again, and while new College Stories will be back every Thursday shortly, and for the duration of the school year, we bridge the gap with a re-posting of the very first episode about our 1st days of college. On the ep, all the Ball State attendees (not all...

Doug Smith (comedian, Montreal Just For Laughs Festival) grew up a Jehovah’s Witness, but then quit, HARD. He went to art school in NYC, 9/11 turned into his Home Alone 2 (we explain), he dropped out but didn’t tell his dad, and he was present for some serious arson. Doug brings the stories for real...

Gary Vider tells us everything about his time at U of Buffalo: pledging a frat, the insane hazing (and how that led to no particular lasting friendship), and his creative side-job that made him a lot of money and got his room broken into. We also talk about Gary’s run to the finals on America’s...

George Gordon accidentally ended up in ATO at Memphis University, lived on a dorm floor with one of country music’s biggest talents, and hit the biggest “college spring break locales”: Panama City and South Padre Island, with a pit stop over in Mexico. We talk cheap, awful liquors (cheap vodka is the best, relatively speaking),...

Alison Leiby (comedian/writer) is, in her words, “a monster.” She started at Cornell on the rowing team, and after injuries derailed that career, she took the athlete’s mentality to college partying. Alison and Kevin compare notes on blacking out and leaving class to go heave in sinks (incredibly similar stories, actually), Alison talks about the...
