Greg Fitzsimmons kicks things off with some classic FitzDog ranting before hanging out with his longtime friend Jeff Garlin for a loose, funny, and thoughtful conversation. They bounce from the Golden Globes and the weird state of podcasting to music, comedy, relationships, and growing up, with plenty of side stories and honest moments along the way. It’s the kind of episode that feels like eavesdropping on two comics just talking and seeing where it goes.
