Service From Hell

In the most honest and vulnerable interview we have ever done, comedian Ben Roy joins us to shatter the idea that he is infallible. ODAAT, Ben just celebrated 13 years of sobriety AND the release of his new special "Hyena" which is just so, so hilarious and delightful. Go find it on all things August 10th, 2023.

We have been asked about the concept of "Tipflation" in the United States for a few weeks now and had to discuss it. Oddly enough? We agree. We know it is out of control. 

Here are the articles we reference -

We have had a crazy couple of months here at "Service From Hell" and had to pause pushing out our episodes. We gathered a bunch of interviews, but we had so many other things happen over the last 2 months, we took a pause. Also, per your emails and outreach, we haven't changed the format, but we are trying new tunes until we find what we like.

Thank you for all of the DM's, emails, calls, texts, etc asking us where we were. We are so touched and honored that y'all missed us! We start back next week with a hilarious comic, Dave Stone. We'll see you then!

Kaytlin Bailey is a writer, stand up comic and leader in the growing movement to decriminalize sex work. She is back for part 2 this week and we are floored at, yet again, how much we learned. It was a sincere delight to listen to her. Check out her show April 26th at the Tank Theatre in NYC, "Whore's Eye View" and see what she can do.

Whenever you ignore our pleas for patreon, someone's puppy dies.

Comic, writer, and leader in the growing movement to decriminalize sex work Katylin Bailey is with us for 2 weeks and we are humbled by how little we knew. She shares honestly and does not hold back when discussing how we ALL are guilty of biases against sex workers. ALL of us. 

Go see Kaytlin's show. It's going to be incredible. 

@chase_odonnell is back to wrap up her residency on the podcast. This week, we learn that she didn't know that she had a billboard in Time's Square. To be so lucky! I'd camp out for the month and just take selfies in front of it to show all of my bullies that I am awesome. 

Patreon needs you! Just them! Not us!

Comic, writer, and actor Chase O'Donnell is dishing on all of it, especially how much being a People Pleaser has led her to make a lot of questionable choices. Also, why NYC was making her cry everyday, yet she still couldn't leave right away. Check out her album and tour dates and enjoy her lovely self.
