Attention all Jar Men and Smushers: arachnophobia is no laughing matter. Except - well - see, there's a real classic mess around in this podcast episode that makes even the arachnophobe writing this paragraph cackle. Also arachnophobia is a laughing matter when it involves Schmidt, of course. So the original statement is true, but there are loopholes. Such is life! God this is such a good episode (New Girl 417 AND the pod).

The entire New Girl gang goes to Oregon for Jess's Dad's wedding, etc etc etc yes we DO talk about that but ALSO more importantly we learn that people who live in Portland "don't use umbrellas" ??? Hardy folks out there. Only need a good, sensible rain coat and a dream. Speaking of dreams, we also talk about Jake Apex, Jordan Catalano and Jamie Lee Curtis!

If you're wondering if Lamorne is still sick, YES. And now also Hannah. So, they're both a little bit loopy!! But as a wise man once said, The Crawl is for all. The sniffly-nosed, the brain-fogged and sneezy schnozzed; the puffy-peepered and sleepy keisters. And this is an iconic episode, so there is much to talk about!

Everybody STAY CALM. There's a lot to talk about. Looooots to talk about. Like how this episode features the prestigious debuts of Fawn Moscato AND Aly Nelson. We dive into a mysterious cat food bowl project. We learn the number for Outside Dave's tailor (grab a pen!) Plus, if you listen closely you'll hear a bonus cameo from Lamorne's boi Kyle. You know, Kyle!!

We're BACK! YAY! With a Christmas episode?!? Why not! In this New Girliest of plots, the whole gang heads to the airport together because everyone has flights on the same day (which is totally normal of course). Jess gets nervous about Ryan's rich English family. Winston drops classic quotes on 'em. Pervert Santa is there. And so is Billy Eichner!

Hello, Mess Around Listeners! We want to share a new show you might enjoy, Viva Betty: An Ugly Betty Rewatch Podcast! 

About the show: Ugly Betty was more than just a show - it was a revolution. Bold, heartfelt, and unapologetically real, it gave us characters that shattered stereotypes and told stories that mattered, putting a working-class Latino family, the immigrant experience, and LGBTQ+ stories front and center. 

Now, Ana Ortiz and Mark Indelicato—aka Hilda and Justin—are sitting down to rewatch the show that changed their lives and ours. With fresh eyes and zero filter, they’re revisiting every messy moment, iconic outfit, and groundbreaking storyline, one episode at a time.

This isn’t just a nostalgia trip. It’s a love letter to the show that made being different feel like a superpower. Pull up a chair, there’s room at the table for you!

When America’s Next Top Model premiered in the early 2000s, it looked like a golden ticket: a glamorous TV show that could catapult aspiring models into fame. But two decades later, many contestants describe its aftermath as a curse. Hosted by pop-culture journalist Bridget Armstrong, Curse of: America’s Next Top Model is a deep investigation into the hidden costs of reality television, and what the show’s legacy reveals about beauty, power, and the culture that cheered it on. Through conversations with dozens of former contestants, producers and crew members, Curse of: America’s Next Top Model explores what happened behind the scenes on one of the most iconic and problematic reality shows of our generation. The series starts off by exploring how ANTM almost didn’t get made. You’ll get the real story behind the show’s most infamous controversies. Then, the models and producers pull back the curtain and talk about how the most outrageous photoshoots and runaways came together. You’ll hear from contestants who say ANTM saved their lives and from those who say it ruined theirs. The contestants also talk about how the body shaming they experienced on the show caused lifelong scars. Finally, we try to answer the question, is Tyra Banks the ultimate reality television villain? Curse of: America’s Next Top Model takes you on an investigative journey to figure out if the so-called curse is real? And if so, what was the toll on the models, and us, the audience?
