Derek Gaines joins the show for one of our wildest episodes yet.

We get into everything from AI therapy and ChatGPT ego boosts to the return of Indian stereotypes and the sad decline of late-night TV. Derek drops stories about thick Indian crushes, fake comedy fans, and how a fat ass completely derailed a funeral.

Topics include:

– ChatGPT as a life coach

– Comedy’s TikTok problem

– Shane Gillis & the ESPYs

– AI and the future of film

– Fat asses and funeral etiquette

Comedian Chris Tos returns to talk fatherhood, fake therapists, and why you should never give babies water. We get into his insane MySpace prank that had the cops at his door, a Coldplay concert scandal involving HR and the CEO, and whether Superman is technically an illegal immigrant.

Also: Epstein conspiracies, AIM catfishing gone wrong, and why men in sandals can’t be trusted.

Comedian Paola Leon (@paolaleon.jpeg) joins Raj and Eric to talk about everything from bombing onstage after a month in Peru to the absurdity of Texas trying to ban vibrators. We also dive into NYC’s hilariously corrupt spending (why do tree fences cost $10K?), butt stuff etiquette, and why comics should always eat after sex, not before.

Paola also breaks down producing her own birthday comedy special, her upcoming Pride show, and how she went from open mics to working with TJ Miller and Chanel Ali.

This episode has chaos, gossip, politics, lube, and laughs. You’ve been warned.

From Hot Dogs to Drew Barrymore: Chuck Staton’s Wild Ride

This week, Chuck Staton (Tuesdays with Stories, Funbearable, Tell ’Em Steve-Dave) joins Raj and Eric for a chaotic deep-dive into his journey from DIY filmmaking to directing for big names like Kevin Smith, Mike Birbiglia, and yes—Drew Barrymore. We talk prank-on-the-performer comedy, navigating the changing film/TV industry, shooting with one-man crews, and how a hot dog bit led to FBI attention. It’s equal parts hilarious, inspiring, and absurd.

💥 Plus: AI panic, audience feuds, prank letters, fake hot dog carts, and the underrated power of cheese foam.

🎧 Hit play. Trust us, this one’s stacked.

Kenyon Adamcik joins Raj to talk about growing up chubby, the immigrant food guilt struggle, the desperation that led to working out, and how his divorce sent him straight to stand-up. They get into everything from saving seizing groundhogs to why smelly people deserve exile, plus how being fat first might be the best thing that ever happened to them.

Comedian Jacob Williams joins us this week to talk about his wild run on Wild’n Out, performing for black crowds across the country, getting semi-naked on stage (literally), and his early days on America’s Got Talent. We get into what it takes to survive in comedy today, why followers don’t equal ticket sales, and how Jacob ended up doing full sets with his balls out.

From bombing on a boat to performing in front of 15,000 people at Barclays Center, Jacob keeps it real about the highs, the lows, and the uncomfortable gigs that make you better.
