This week, Sara and Nikki relive their surreal evening spent amongst random celebrities and teenage screams.  Comedy power couple Jim and Jeannie Gaffigan (Comedy Central, Twitter & Twitter) make their triumphant return to the podcast and speculate about the pitfalls of Taylor-level fame.  Jim's new book, Dad is Fat, drops next week, but you should preorder a copy now just in case.  Written with Jeannie and inspired by their five kids, the book is an astonishingly hilarious and oppressively addicting collection of essays on fatherhood.  For the rest of the hour, the gang discusses collaborating with a writing partner, treating stand-up as therapy, and a rare definition of the word "galley".

Hey, remember a while back when Nikki recorded a special up in Boston?  Well that set premieres this Friday May 3rd at 12 midnight/11c, kicking off Comedy Central's new season of The Half Hour.  Read this now, watch that then.

This week, Sara and Nikki are personally invited to a Taylor Swift gig out in Jersey and neither snow nor rain nor violent food poisoning will stay these girls from meeting the Swift herself.  Comic and birthday girl Sue Costello (@suecostello, The Fighter, TV everything) takes the ladies through her one-woman show I Wasn't Trying To Be Funny for which she's currently raising money to bring to a broader audience through Kickstarter (help her out!).  The show covers Sue's entire comedic career thus far, from the highs of being discovered at an elderly bringer show to the improbably unlucky lows of jealous mentors and hindering home runs, and how through it all she's maintained her trademark candor and zeal.

In closing, Nikki implores you to watch Nikki & Sara LIVE on MTV Tuesday at 11pm/10c.  Trust her, she's an expert in these things.

This week, Sara and Nikki quash a bout of podcaster's block by brainstorming new ways for Nikki to find dates.  Their guest Chris Fairbanks (@chrisfairbanks, Comedy Central, truTV's World's Dumbest), a comic who graced the stage at YHTBT's first live taping, takes this theme and runs with it first through the dark depths of sexual insanity and later around the whimsies of deceptive dating and pubic quilts.  To close, the three talk pee about Chris's CD, friend-of-the-'cast Myq Kaplan's existence, and Buzzfeeder @LouisPeitzman's timely tweets.

This week, Sara and Nikki declassify the events surrounding last week's torrent of celebrity encounters, codenamed "Zero Dark Flirty".  Comic Moshe Kasher (@moshekasher, The Champs podcast) barely makes it past MTV's team of New World Order security guards in time to plug his shows at Carolines with Natasha Leggero this very weekend and reminisce about his last barfight.  Moshe, whose dark and hilarious memoir Kasher in the Rye was published last year, has been cutting his way through the jungle of the LA TV biz and he comes armed with tales of treacherous table-reads and wise words for tackling rampant self-doubt.  The gang talks a little pee about Nikki's documented love for Fitzdog Radio, Sara's documented love for Nikki, and Moshe's dreams coming true vis-à-vis those Carolines shows (which, by the way, you should go to).

This week, Sara and Nikki just barely evade the censors and then react to Nikki's illicit half hour special gifts.  To celebrate their first triple-digit episode, the ladies entertain one of their biggest guests yet: Mike Birbiglia (@birbigs).  In Sara's humble office, the trio kick around some themes Mike covered in his recent movie Sleepwalk with Me, like crazy dreams and on-stage stress.  Later, they get to some he left out too, like the isolation of marriage and the optimism of cell division.  Plus Kanye.  They really cover it all.  Talking Pee singles out The Ben Show, that new Baumbach movie, a positive Internet interaction, and Maria Bamford's comedian-approved comedy.  Here's to the next hundred.

And be sure to watch Nikki & Sara LIVE Tuesdays at 11pm/10c on MTV because you deserve it.

This week, Sara and Nikki conduct a no-nonsense all-business intro before announcing their pick for the YHTBT-designed listener-proposed website to be created on Squarespace: an entire site exclusively devoted to Talking Pee.  The ladies welcome rising comic Michael Che (Best Week Ever, Letterman, soon SNL) to discuss the art of calling out an audience's oversensitivity regarding such topics as race or bulldogs.  The trio touch upon all the complications and potential depression of watching porn and end up highlighting a host of real-world gestures, scents, and compliments that do a better job of turning them on anyway.  To close, everyone Talks Pee about Tim Minchin and his about-to-open Matilda, Mario Badescu and his magical skin creams, and Thai food as a whole.

This week, Sara and Nikki react live on-mic to their first taste of the Suit & Tie video (or at least to the best bits, until all that wacky jumping business).  After considering to which drug Vine is most similar, the ladies share some dark thoughts and weird feelings that follow them through life and the causes and goals that help them cope.  Looking like a badass angel from a half-remembered dream (probably involving cereal), rocker, proprietor, and professional partier Andrew W.K. suddenly appears to give one crazy-entertaining interview.  Besides discussing the many merits of the Internet and his first-rate Twitter, Andrew riffs on awesome childhood parties of yore, mind-blowing vision boards, and the only Party Tip he ever regrets endorsing.

...conveniently right before you flip over to Nikki & Sara LIVE on MTV at 11pm/10c.  Nikki & Sara LIVE: like a podcast for your eyes!

This week, Sara and Nikki share the terror and elation of hosting Tuesday's premiere of Nikki and Sara LIVE while momentarily shutting out the demands of judgy Twitterers and next week's show.  Local comic and new friend Jessimae Peluso (Twitter) leads the ladies in a vivid chat about the vicious zits faced by all three at some point in their lives.  In a surprise cameo, Drunk Diddy himself pipes in to postulate the perfect pustule-killing potion.  Eventually the topic shifts to something more embarrassing than acne: the cocky posturing nearly every stand-up commits when starting out. 

Talking Pee brings a calmer end to a breathless episode, with shout-outs to Eliot Glazer's webseries Eliot's Sketch Pad, HBO's Enlightened, stretch pants in general, and the Sean Kimerling Testicular Cancer Foundation, for which Jessimae's been making some crazy awareness videos.

And don't forget: Tuesdays.  11pm/10c.  MTV.  Nikki and Sara LIVE.  Tune in!  Okay?  Good talk.

This week, Sara and Nikki reveal their hidden motives for hosting a TV show: proving their tween Twitter haters wrong and meeting famous men.  It's been a big day for up-and-coming guest comic Michelle Wolf, who arrives at the podcast-office straight from getting herself strategically fired from her impressive-sounding job.  Michelle outlines her origin story, twisting from her involvement in the Bear Stearns collapse to her experiments with pretty much every type of comedy and eventually bringing her to today, her first day of fully committing to the craft.  Your humble hosts have weathered the risk and excitement of this transition before and offering their insight on the situation leads to a frank and lively discussion about the feelings of workplace confidence and self-loathing that exist in every job everywhere.  Before bouncin', the trio talks pee about Jimmy Pardo's landmark podcast Never Not Funny, Cory Cavin's rising webseries Model Wife, and Beyonce's upcomin' rip-roarin' scandal-crushin' Super Bowl show.

Oh, hey, and REMEMBER: Nikki and Sara's well-titled TV show Nikki & Sara LIVE premieres THIS TUESDAY 1/29 at 11pm/10c on MTV!  Ahhh!  Gather 'round the telly with your family and friends and be there from the beginning.

This week, Nikki's just come up from a celeb-spiked Starbucks run and Sara's just come down from a hyperventilating Timberlake high minutes after the man announced that he's ready.  Their guest, Jackie Kashian (@jackiekashian), is used to such obsession: every week on her podcast The Dork Forest, she invites guests to rant freely about their unique loves.  The ladies leapfrog among topics, from the hotel room Jackie and Nikki shared on Last Comic Standing to the gym Nikki can't wait to quit, from the majesty of whale sharks to the pettiness of club owners, before finding a DF-worthy shared passion for Boggle.  Pee is talked about Dan Opsal's webseries Sugarboy, the NSFWiest fantasy webcomic you'll read all week, and Nikki's still-favorite app Sleep Cycle (if only they sponsored podcasts…).  Sit back and savor this fast and chatty hour.

This week, Sara and Nikki revisit their contributions to this year's edition of 50 First Jokes and discuss whether all the flack Nikki got for her cancer joke was deserved or not.  Their guest Bridey Elliott (Twitter, Funny or Die) talks about her projects with big sister Abby and her childhood with dad Chris.  The gaggle of girls remember a world pre-Google when the only ways a kid could learn about sex were useless school lectures and There's Something About Mary.  For the rest of the episode, the ladies show no remorse about skipping classic literature or panning meandering movies.  Eventually they suggest alternatives of their own by talking pee about a wacky Christian flick, a wild insult show, and an insane old movie about the perils of comedy and extra limbs.

Don't forget to cop your free audiobook and support this here podcast by heading over to AudiblePodcast.com/BeThere and setting up your free trial Audible membership.  Do it for the kids.

This week, Sara and Nikki are back from their break with news of humorous iPads and difficult dads.  This is comedian Nick Turner's (Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, If You Build It at UCBeast) third time as a guest on the podcast, a stratospheric record matched only by Kurt Braunohler.  Nick gives a preview of the upcoming Best Week Ever reboot he's currently gearing up for, inspiring the ladies, each of whom was recognized in public over the holidays, to share infant-TV-show stories of their own.  Nick's tale of a date tainted by Twitter spurs an entire talk about the faux pas lurking in Tweets and texts.  The three wrap up by talking pee about Skrillex's addicting behind the scenes videos, Grace Helbig's Daily Grace webseries, and Bruce Willis's first old-Bruce-meets-young-Bruce movie since Disney's The Kid, Looper.

And don't forget to claim your free audiobook and gain major points in YHTBT's pointbook by heading to audiblepodcast.com/BeThere and setting up your free trial Audible membership.  You'll get a book, the podcast'll get some cash, everybody wins.  Hop to it.

This week, the ladies start off by introducing the first company brave enough to sponsor You Had To Be There: Audible.com!  Audible hosts a virtually limitless selection of audio books and they currently have a sweet deal going on: if you start a no-fee risk-free month-long trial via audiblepodcast.com/BeThere, you get a no-questions-asked audiobook fer keeps and (as long as you follow that link) YHTBT'll get some coin tossed its way.  So please do that!

Then, after passing judgement on sexy cell phones, celebrity commentators, and TV doctors, Nikki and Sara take you further behind-the-scenes of their in-the-works series by welcoming writers Emmy Blotnick and Gabe Gronli to the podcast.  Their conversation is peppered with embarrassing tales that are hilarious in hindsight, but what it really zeroes in on are infections, everything from your deadly staph to your pesky urinary tract.  The gang eventually talk some figurative pee about good ol' Radiolab, a newfound favorite fruit, a sleek design blog, and former guest Joe DeRosa's Nikki-starring web series We Should Break Up.

And FYI: Sara and Nikki will be taking next week off due to holidays and travel and things, but to help fill the silence you should explore the podcast's back-catalog, check out their new show's MTV and FB pages, and get cracking on that free audiobook we discussed earlier.

This week the ladies may seem hostile up top, but that’s only because of their air travel woes and rebelling brains.  Sara’s actually been pretty happy lately, having just spent the weekend joyriding around Richmond on a Christmas-house hunt, a family tradition.  Nikki’s known her guest, the comic and writer H. Alan Scott (Twitter, HuffPo), since high school, where they both had their first forays into performance thanks to theater.  After addressing the universal confusion of dick pics and dental dams, H.A.S. reveals what he’s been up to for much of 2012: battling cancer.  He’s had enough time over the months of treatment to rack up some fascinating thoughts on the tedium of the disease and the humanity around him.  However harrowing Scott’s stories get, he always includes something weirdly relatable, like Target's calming therapy or proven strategies for puking.  Talking pee includes shout-outs to an empowering Ted Talk, a tight glasses-maker, and the utterly addicting The John Friedman Internet Program.  This hour's sobering and hilarious, but above all it's great.

This week, Sara and Nikki implicate the friends, family, and bullies to blame for all their neuroses and therapy, but the brilliant Brian McCann (Conan) soothes their stress through the Hawaiian healing of hoʻoponopono.  You may recall from last week's ep that Nikki and Sara landed Brian as the head writer for their little late-night show over at MTV.  As a guest, Brian largely avoids shop talk and instead leads a hilarious discussion on protecting one's castle from every imaginable threat, including intruders, hellhounds, and make-believe fires.  After exploring the board games that drive families apart, Nikki and Sara salvage what starts as a train-wreck of a talking pee segment.  Listen, laugh, and meet the minds behind your future favorite TV show.

This week, Sara and Nikki rehash their Thanksgivings and gush about their new staff at MTV, especially the inspired hiring of Brian McCann as head writer.  The ladies discuss celebrity deaths and how to live forever through the magic of sampling before greeting musician Eric Hutchinson on a lighter note.  Their chat then swerves from sitcoms like Liz & Dick to singalongs like the R.E.M. catalog, from a shout-out to a sweet sleep app to advice on surviving stalkers.  Eventually Eric rolls far enough away from the boardroom table to play his misleading hit "Watching You Watch Him" and a cover of a Police classic.  Kick back and enjoy YHTBT's return to the music world.

This week, Sara and Nikki explain how a single sexy scene from American Horror Story can undo a decade of Adam Levine apathy.  Once they've collected themselves, the ladies welcome their guest actress Molly Tarlov to the podcast meeting room.  Molly, who plays Sadie on Awkward, tells her showbiz origin story and leads the discussion from the lows of Twitter trolls to the highs of a JoJo singalong.  The trio winds down by talking some pee about Etsy, former guest Carmen Lynch, and a tale about a trip to the thee-ay-ter that manages to include a Homeland spoiler (you've been warned).  Give thanks for this fun, "flirty" episode. 

This week, You Had To Be There's back and broadcasting from an exotic new locale: the snazziest conference room in a certain shiny Manhattan office.  As their audience sips coffee in swivel chairs, Sara and Nikki detail their move from the basement to the boardroom and share the self-image stresses of a recent photo shoot.  Soon the legendary and hilarious Janeane Garofalo swoops into the conversation to save the ladies' lives (prescription: less likes, in speech and on Facebook).  Janeane describes her days here in New York, from her subway altruism to her favorite chocolatier, and explains how she lives with little anxiety despite her troubling Waterworld premonitions.  Get back in the YHTBT habit with this enlightening episode.

This week, Nikki considers the pros and cons of her new Manhattan digs and tells a grand story of comedic rebellion that explains why she doesn't get many corporate gigs.  Though this is comedian Dan St. Germain's (John Oliver's New York Stand-Up Show, My Dumb Friends podcast) first official YHTBT appearance, he was previously the guest on this podcast's only lost episode, locked away in the Disney Vault for being, in Dan's words, "too sad".  The talk this time around starts out kind of dour, too, with tales of epically vindictive exes, but soon morphs into a fun litany of frank sexual histories, including Dan's weird nuts, Sara's minor orgy, and something called "Jeff Dunhamming".  Combat your post-Sandy cabin fever with this great episode (and then check out this recent post from previous guest Gavin McInnes celebrating Nikki's photos from the subways (remember those?)).

This week, Sara gives a visceral account of her triumphant if unglamorous half-marathon and Nikki connects over the awkward joy of a good leg-pain massage.  The ladies then welcome their guest comedian Sam Morril (@sammorril, Comedy Central's "Comics to Watch") who, like Nikki, is a regular on the Comedy Cellar's storied stage which, for those of you west of the Hudson, means he's makin' it.  The trio spend the episode exchanging war stories of poor audience manners, from innocent post-show snubs to inexcusably proud hecklers, and save just enough time at the end to first damn then forgive Billy Crystal, that jerk and/or saint.

This week, Nikki and Sara toss around contest-caliber costume ideas for Halloween before losing their minds welcoming back to the show comedian Rory Scovel (Conan, @roryscovel).  Rory and the ladies bond over a shared love of yelling at strangers in public, especially in Des Moines, home of the Most Difficult Audience on Earth.  Before long, the discussion focuses on eliminating the BS from relationships and marriage myths, an issue groom-to-be Scovel feels particularly strong about.  The episode ends goofily enough as Rory fails a pop star audition and Sara and Nikki ban a shameful celebrity from their TV show before it's even begun.  Hear, hear!

This week, Nikki and Sara are back in Brooklyn and reflecting on their busy September travels.  The ladies recently collaborated with their guest comedian Jeff Dye (Last Comic Standing) on a couple episodes of his insane MTV series Money From Strangers.  Jeff conveys the mind-altering power of playing God on a prank show and Sara and Nikki offer previews of the most absurd situations they controlled during their stint in the MFS van.  The podcast gets healthy as Sara, a newly-minted jock, compares her grueling running regimen with Jeff's torturous LA workouts and Jeff warns the group about the perils of scammer yogis.  Listen 'til the end and you'll discover the dark side of uplifting TV, experience the thrill of gift-giving/getting when Nikki surprises Sara with a wobbly collectable, and learn more about rats than you will from any other podcast this week, guaranteed.

This week, Nikki and Sara borrow a studio deep within the Nerdist HQ to bring you more LA updates.  Having recently regained consciousness, Sara explains her humbling near-death experience with a bug.  Then Nikki tells what was going through her mind during her wholly successful Conan set and shares the compliments the host/her hero paid afterward.  In continuing the theme Teen Stars Done Good (see ep. 80), this week's guest is Nikki DeLoach (The All New Mickey Mouse Club, Awkward.)  Nikki was a part of the MMC cast with Spears, Gosling, and Timberlake and lived the 90s fantasy of girl groups, perms, and popstar boyfriends.  After some reminiscing, Nikki details how she broke out of the machine and strove to get herself educated and acclimated to a realer world.  Before long, she reentered the industry with the perspective required to tackle more challenging projects, like her current role as the extremely imperfect mother Lacey on MTV's Awkward.  The episode closes on a very thorough pee-talking session featuring sincere shout-outs to Chris Gethard for his brilliant letter to a troubled fan, Greg Fitzsimmons for his unrivaled podcast, and the fundraisers springing up in Nikki D's hometown to support a girl with cancer.  Dig in.

This week, Nikki and Sara report from sunny LA where they've been busy killing on Conan, writing for the Creative Arts Emmys, and tackling their first red carpet.  Soon Rider Strong drops in and describes life in the 90s when you're deluged by fan mail.  You may know Rider best as Shawn Hunter from Boy Meets World, but nowadays he's a full-fledged DIY director and a successful one at that: he and his brother are currently developing the feature version of their TriBeCa Film Festival-featured short The Dungeon Master.  Rider explains how and why he worked to break out of an easy typecast rut and transition to a more creative and meaningful career.  The conversation later veers from favorite modern TV to kissing for an audience, but it all just works on this brisk and positive episode.

This week, Sara justifies her pricy haircut and Nikki presents their guest, comedian Joe DeRosa (Comedy Central Presents, @joederosacomedy).  Joe's currently putting the finishing touches on his new webseries We Should Break Up, in which he and our very own Nikki Glaser star as a couple who by all accounts should call it quits.  But minutes into the conversation, a twist! -- Joe and Nikki actually dated IRL before tumultuously splitting some time before this calmer collaboration (set to debut in just a few weeks).  What results is not relationship rubbernecking but something much richer: a blunt, relatable rundown of the life cycle of a couple and the logistics of somehow remaining friends afterward.  Get ready, huge range of emotions on this one.

Hey! Also! Bonus!  Nikki was on CONAN!  Watch her set here.

This week, Sara and Nikki waste no time on chitchat before introducing their storied Renaissance man of a guest: stand-up, visual artist, filmmaker, and boyfriend Scott Moran (@scottmoran9876).  With his already-acclaimed new webseries Modern Comedian, Scott documents the comedy scene by crafting elegant video profiles of other rising comics.  Scott recalls Sara's hilariously aloof introduction to his father and the couple outlines their official opinion of baby talk.  The trio touches on that unique disappointment of fulfilling a dream and finding its outcome underwhelming, and later offers some prescient advice about the Tonight Show's budget woes.  Things start wrapping up with Sara talking pee about web journalist Xeni Jardin and Nikki auditioning for an honorary spot in the Scott-Sara relationship.  Super casual, super funny episode.

This week, Nikki explains the virtual babies in her life and Sara gushes about her new writing job with a familiar award show.  The ladies welcome back comic Andy Haynes (Conan, Modern Comedian) to tackle the napping and nerves brought on by Sara's stress, Nikki's gig-on-a-boat, and Andy's most recent TV set.  Andy recounts a hilarious childhood peeing mishap, which leads to a discussion on the intricate etiquette of easing bodily functions into a relationship.  Finally, this loopy episode ends with Talking Pee, YHTBT's new life-affirming semi-regular segment to keep you in a positive mood until next week's installment.

This week, the ladies describe the agony and the ecstasy of handling hecklers, inspired by a recent showdown Nikki won at the Cellar.  Sara recounts a potentially scary exchange from the road that ended the best possible way and invites hilarious comic Emily Heller (John Oliver's New York Stand-Up Show, Baby Geniuses podcast) to tell a horror story of her own.  Next, the competition for Most Similar to Emily begins: is it Sara, who once played Emily on national television, or Nikki, with whom Emily shares a fun neurological condition/super power?  The trio delve into difficult dating, toxic friendships, and mild sex cults, but close out on a positive note by talking pee (trademark pending) about some of their peers.  So listen up, you might get a brain tingle or two.

This week, Nikki and Sara mix things up in a few ways: one, instead of their normal catching up on life at the top of the show, they answer questions from fans. Two, this week's guest is not a comedian, but instead the amazingly talented musician Anya Marina (who also just happens to be very funny). Anya describes her experience being on the "Twilight: New Moon" soundtrack, internet haters, tampons, her journey to Portland and her famous cover of T.I.'s "Whatever You Like." Finally, she plays two songs, one from her album "Felony Flats," and the aforementioned T.I. cover. SO GOOD!

This week, Sara shares a horrifying incident with spit on the subway, and then A.D. Miles (Fallon head writer) joins in for a chat about having a baby in NYC, working on a late night show, ghosts, vodka tampons, and much more.  But best of all, he shares an absolutely HILARIOUS story about moving to New York with Zach Galifianakis. Don't miss this! A very delightful episode, if we do say so ourselves.

Ooooooh boy. This one's a dirty one. As per one fan's request, Sara and Nikki tackle the topic of cunnilingus. Then, hilarious, wonderful man Louis Katz joins in for a detailed, interesting talk about getting off. Do it. (Literally.)

In this name-droppy (in a good way) episode, Sara and Nikki discuss the Katy Perry 3D movie experience, and then hear a wonderful tale of celebrity hijinks from Fallon warm-up and bit player Seth Herzog, and he recounts a bachelor party gone awkwardly wrong.

Welcome to Season 2 of "You Had To Be There!" Why is it season 2? Because we said so. And we think it very appropriate that our first guest for Season 2 was ALSO our first guest from Season 1! The wonderful Rachel Feinstein joins us for a discussion about the Daniel Tosh "rape joke" controversy, rape culture, girl-on-girl action, dad's, and more.

Yes! Dave Hill, the awesome comedian and musician behind the "You Had To Be There" theme song, is finally a guest on the show, providing some acoustic songs and hilarious conversation. He and the ladies discuss high school reunions, boobies, Nikki's instagram, and Dave tells one of the CRAZIEST subway stories of all time. This one is so GREAT!

Heyyyyyyyy!! This week, Sara and Nikki talk about the making of their pilot with one of its core producers, Jake Plunkett, and then discuss doing the road with comedian Matt Fulchiron (Comedy Central). This one's got self-esteem you guys!

On this week's episode, comedian and Twitter aficionado Greg Johnson chats with Nikki and Sara about Michael Keaton, misleading magazine marketing, and covert cross-dressing, plus Sara name-drops her Kickstarter donors over some soothing acoustic arpeggios. It's all great, all of it.  Listen up!

This week, Nikki and Sara discuss Mother's Day, attachment parenting, and more with the supremely funny and nice comedian Tommy Johnigan. Nikki asks Tommy about doing Letterman multiple times and about his hero fantasies. This one is great, because guess what - Tommy is great!

"Community" writer Megan Ganz joins Sara and Nikki for this delightful episode to discuss obsessive drawings, annoying birthdays, and how to stave off madness during an employment gap.  Sound cool?  Cool cool cool.

The infinitely funny Andrea Rosen (Michael & Michael Have Issues, Flight of The Conchords, and much more) dropped by Sara's apartment this week for an in-depth convo with the ladies about sex shops, cereal, dildos, her baby, and marriage. She is the funniest. Check it!

This week, Nikki and Sara discuss the awful monster known as the house centipede. Then, comedian Andy Blitz (Eagleheart, Late Night with Conan O'Brien) joins in for his first podcast appearance ever! The three talk about pests, ghosts, homeless people, and more.

One of our favorite guests on the show returns, this time with properly working microphones! With Kurt Braunohler, Nikki and Sara discuss his upcoming IFC game show, Bunk!, yeast infections, pink eye, having sex in public, and one of our favorite topics: weird noises and phrases one could / has made or said during sex. Fun!

The legend-in-the-making Jim Gaffigan stopped by Sara's apartment (to sit in her "daddy chair") and talk about pranks, A1 sauce, Dr. Pepper, bullying, and what it's like to be a comedian with a family of "normals." Also, Jim's lovely and wise wife Jeannie Gaffigan joins in to tell the story of how they met and more. This one is the best! DO IT!

This week, The World Champion Judah Friedlander makes himself comfy in Sara's apartment, rifles through her bookshelf and gives Nikki some love advice. He also discusses pizza in St. Louis, the evolution of his persona, his unusual career path, and more. Be a champ yourself and listen to this one! It's one of our favorites.

We're back in Brooklyn with this lively episode! First, Nikki and Sara give an update on their pilot and Sara describes a recent audition for a movie. Then, the girls welcome the extremely funny Gabe Liedman (Onion News Network, Vh1, Gabe & Jenny) for a lengthy discussion about movies, poop, the depiction of talented "fat" women in the media, and more!

Here is another episode taped in Los Angeles! This time, Nikki and Sara recount a gross experience in the greenroom at a comedy club, and then invite the wonderful Brendon Walsh to chat. Sara recounts the embarrassing gaffe she made when first meeting Brendon, and Nikki thanks Brendon for some advice he gave her when she was in college. Then the conversation meanders into Sara's Jesus complex, porn, pranks, and more.

This week, the quirky and delightful Jacqueline Novak sits in with Nikki and Sara to talk about obsessive behaviors, masturbation, and what it's like talking about sexual topics on the podcast and on stage. This one gets deep into the brain y'all. Go there with us.
