Hi, I'm Rick Glassman, and I'm a goofy guy and a cute boy. As a kid, I had debilitating OCD. I still have a lot of “things.” The title of my podcast “Take Your Shoes Off” is a microcosm of my need for control and order in a world that... keeps their shoes on.

Not a fan of how you treated Magnus
Hilarious, real and bit centric. Favourite podcast!
This one was bad. I love Alison, but the interviewer didn’t do a good job with this one.
