There are two kinds of people in the world: people who have gone on Eugene Mirman's show, Hold On, to tell a story and answer Eugene's questions about it; and those who have not gone on Eugene Mirman's show, Hold On, but would probably enjoy listening to it. Sharp-witted comedian Baron Vaughn (Mystery Science Theater 3000, Grace and Frankie) can now say in all honesty that he has successfully transitioned from the latter to the former. He dropped by the studio to spill his guts (among other things) about a revelation he had in the jungle while on ayahuasca. Trippy!
