I Need You Guys

Kumail Nanjiani (Night Thoughts, Fallout) doesn’t want us to bust his chops! Together, we help a caller trying to coax his mother-in-law to get a much-needed surgery and guess which not-quite-A-List actor is dating an AI chatbot. Plus: Silvestri and Liedman dream of having “last name” friendships.

Check out Kumail's "Night Thoughts" special on Hulu 12/19!

Plus: Is Gabe's Texas A&M shirt stolen valor?

Jenny, Max, and Gabe all sat down at the studio in New York City during launch week to talk about their origin story! You’ll hear how they met, what they thought of each other’s fashion (the phrase “Sideshow Bob” is uttered), which of their parents used to come see them live, and hear all about their own Project 2025 (which was simply to start this podcast so they could hang out, it’s nothing nefarious). Year one you get to cry, year two you get to kiss.
