  • #138 - A Cup with Maddie Wiener

    This week of the podcast we get a chance to sit down with one of our absolute favorite comics, Maddie Wiener (ep. 66). Last time we talked with Maddie she was barely out of high school, and now she's about to head back to Chicago where she goes to college and is slowly taking over the Midwest. This was easily the hardest we've laughed in a while! We had a blast talking with her about starting over in Chicago, who can be the funny one in a relationship, and how she recently headlined one of the biggest shows in NC. Once you fall in love with Maddie make sure follow her at @maddiewiener!

  • #137 - Bored on Netflix: The Overthinker by Demetri Martin

    This week of the podcast we are continuing our new segment of the show, Bored On Netflix. Whenever we get the chance we are going to find something to watch on Netflix, typically movies, or comedy specials, and then do a podcast about what we just watched.  We want to do big blockbuster movies, indie films, and even kung-fu flicks, and we would also LOVE suggestions of things to watch. The only requirement is that we both have never seen the movie before so we can have them extra hot takes. Also if it's not obvious these will definitely be spoilers, so watch the movie and tune in for the the laughs!

    This week we sat and watched Demetri Martin's latest Netflix special, The Overthinker. With his signature one-liners and drawings, Martin muses on doughnut holes, dogs, sports bars, the alphabet's most aggressive letters and more. If you're Bored On Netflix we highly recommend watching this and then listening to the podcast!
