Plus: How does your relationship to anger affect your fashion choices? Listen and maybe you'll learn something!

Our dear friend Mary Beth Barone returns for her third appearance in the lab to celebrate the release of her already critically beloved Netflix special GALAXY BRAIN! We discuss what's standing in the way of her running for office, whether Christopher Nolan should direct the Britney biopic (yes!), the crazy and kooky world of sexual harassment training, and what your favorite Adam Sandler movie says about YOU!

Today we have the second-ever installment of the StraightioLab Book Club with esteemed author Jo Firestone to discuss her new novel: Sex on Murder Island (not to be confused with the prequel Murder on Sex Island). Jo is nine months pregnant, but that won't stop us from having a discourse so deep about her writing that it makes Seth Meyers look like a fraud.

Have you ever found yourself inside of a TJ Maxx searching for something. A lamp? A mug? A deeper meaning? Well then this ep with Alison Leiby, whose new book "I'm A Lot" is out, now may be just the thing you're looking for.

For the second time in StraightioLab history, we discuss a topic chosen by a beloved listener. And this time it's a maybe-British listener named Harry, and it's also FOUR topics rather than one! If you're jealous of Harry, you can subscribe to the Cliff Girl tier on our Patreon at patreon.com/straightiolab and DM us your topic.

This week we're joined by the piss queen herself: Hayden Johsnon! We unpack the seedy underbelly of barcades and whether or not being LGBTQ disqualifies you from certain birthday parties. Plus, we try to plan Sam's perfect birthday and balance the comedy world with the magical world of gay guys. And if that's not enough we also get to the bottom of The Miniature Wife, Madonna's Bilt series, and the man-on-the-street takeover of New York City. See Hayden on her Piss Queen tour this summer!

This week we're joined by our new bicoastal friend Bryan Safi whose Off-Broadway solo show ARE YOU MAD AT ME? is opening this week! We explore such topics as: What would it be like if you could just show someone your camera roll? Why do sunsets make dads go absolutely crazy? And are salsa classes just a sick and twisted way for men to TOUCH someone else's WIFE?! If only it were that simple...
