  • Ecuadorian Love: Adam Conover BOMBS at NYC Show & Gets ROASTED w/ Nick Viagas | RATM #24

    Comedian Nick Viagas joins Raj and Eric for an episode that starts wet and only gets weirder.

    We talk about Adam Conover bombing at a NYC show (and Raj not holding back), a grown man who wraps himself in a carpet to be stepped on at parties, Gen Z allegedly loving Trump, vaccine side effects, and why Raj’s dad thinks Caitlyn Jenner is “making changes.”

    Topics include:

    – Adam Conover’s surprise drop-in and on-stage meltdown

    – NYC’s infamous “Carpet Guy” and public kink as performance art

    – Comedy during COVID and relationships that didn’t survive

    – Gen Z conservatism and gentle parenting

    – Whether racist jokes can ever be “accurate”

    – Stuttering, Drew Lynch, and finding your voice on stage

  • Vibe Ban: Vibrators, Bomb Sets & NYC Corruption w/ Paula J. Leon | RATM #20

    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.


    🎂 Paola’s Birthday Show: June 8 @ Flop House

    🌈 Chismosa Comedy (Pride Edition): June 28 @ Westside Comedy Club

  • Cheese Foam: Directing Drew Barrymore & Being Pranked by Kevin Smith w/ Chuck Staton | RATM #19

    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.

  • Jacob Williams on Wild’n Out, America's Got Talent, and Performing Butt Naked | RATM #17

    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.

  • Diabetic Dog w/ Chris Tos | #RATM #16

    In Episode 16, comedian Chris Tos joins us for a chaotic deep dive into fart stories, dating culture, international marriage, and one very specific animal battle scenario. We debate whether 100 men (or women) could take on a gorilla, get into a heated parking spot confrontation, and accidentally name the episode after a dead diabetic dog.

    Later, the convo turns full emo as we relive the glory days of From First to Last, Pierce the Veil, Craig Owens, and Story of the Year — yes, including the time a guitarist pulled his balls out mid-show.
