Episode 14 - Special Guest Fiona Cauley!

Eating Ass & Naming Names

Fiona Cauley is a stand-up comedian–unusual in many ways, including that she doesn’t stand up.

Cauley suffers from Friedrich’s ataxia, a degenerate form of muscular dystrophy. She was walking in high school, she started college with a cane and ended with a walker. Now, the 26-year-old comedian is in a wheelchair, which is the inspiration for much of her act.

“People love hearing stories about my dating life and just the way being a single young woman in a wheelchair and how men tried to interact with that,” said Cauley. “It’s really awkward dating in 2022. It’s hard. But dating on the internet in a wheelchair, there’s a lot you have to say up front so things are going to get weird.”

Episode 13 - Special Guest Jake Ruble!

Movies, Mad Scientists, & Mickey Rourke!

A comedian from the heart of Indiana with a long strange trip of a life. Growing up being ignored by a biker father and loved by a hippie mother young Jake set out to find himself. After years of drug abuse and excessive drinking, a church opened up their doors to help set this drifter on a better course. Soon after the drugs and booze were gone, a life of preaching began. After a few years, the drifter inside started clawing his way out again and the search for his true self set this now father of three out of the church and into the clubs. Staying away from heavy topics and just telling stories of years gone by, not living up to fatherly duties, living off the funds of an amazing nurse wife and the occasional Uber driver story, this comedian has one goal in mind...Laugh and Be Blessed.
