    I love Drew and this pod so much but the ads are always ten times louder than the actual content. I can get over the way that they are dropped in mid-sentence but I am BEGGING producers to balance the volume!!

MARY BETH BARONE IS SICK OF KEEPING SECRETS (Ft. Mary Beth Barone) | Episode 234
Q: What was the experience like taping a Netflix special, and how did it differ from live stand-up?
Taping felt surreal and a dream; two filmed performances were enough for the final cut, and the live atmosphere needed to feel authentic rather than overly sanitized.
MARY BETH BARONE IS SICK OF KEEPING SECRETS (Ft. Mary Beth Barone) | Episode 234
Q: I'm curious, where did you start with incorporating activism and political themes into your comedy?
Mary Beth explains it was always part of her material, evolving from blue humor to more pointed topics that still feel natural to her voice, sometimes testing boundaries in live shows and refining through audience reactions.
CLOSED MOUTHS DON’T GET FED Ft. Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson | Episode 228
Q: What advice do you have for aspiring actors with a platform?
Utilize your existing following to share your journey and stay persistent with coaching and practice, understanding that being the first can come with unique pressures but also unique opportunities.
CLOSED MOUTHS DON’T GET FED Ft. Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson | Episode 228
Q: What do you hope fans take away from Moana in this version?
Rock hopes audiences see how Polynesian culture is represented and how it connects with global audiences through family, respect, song, and dance, while also celebrating pride and cultural empowerment.
I LOVE TUNA MELTS. Ft. Hayley Kiyoko | Episode 226
Q: How is the preparation process, does it differ from directing versus writing an album or even acting?
Hayley explains that directing a film requires coordinating a large team, managing time constraints, and shaping a world with a clear budget, which is different from writing an album where time can be more fluid and revising is easier; she emphasizes the intensive planning, collaboration, and the need to make the best possible film within fixed resources.
