  • Sammy Petersen Could Make a Podcast About Literally Anything and I'd Listen

    Just hilarious, and never fails to put me in a better mood. The number of people's work that it's introduced me to is wild, too, especially on the comedy side of things.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

HELP! I accidentally started a feud with a local goose
Q: Help, I accidentally started a feud with a local goose and the goose is winning. What should I do?
The guests discuss avoiding escalation by changing routines, reassessing the perceived threat, and using humor to cope, while acknowledging the goose's persistence and the humor value of the situation.
Josh Thomas
Q: What was it like revisiting old work and confronting how audiences remember you?
Seeing old episodes with the benefit of hindsight is a mixed bag—some parts feel real and grounded, others feel like they belonged to a different time; it's a reminder of how much you've changed and how audiences have evolved.
Josh Thomas
Q: How did you decide to pursue a career with a show of your own rather than continuing with traditional paths?
I always wanted to do stand-up and have my own show, but I didn't think anyone would let me; over time I realized I could shape my own path rather than chase the traditional TV ladder.
Stephen Tobolowsky
Q: What should someone do if they're stuck in a difficult personal situation like an affair or a deception?
The host and guest discuss acknowledging the truth, communicating with involved parties, and ultimately making practical, ethical decisions to move on rather than prolonging harm.
HELP! I GOT INTO LOCAL GOVERNMENT!
Q: Just explain to me, is he actually in office? He's just-
No, he is not in office and he has a regular job, which confirms the ruse rather than actual political power.
