Episode 14: Hannibal Buress & Mindy Raf

On a lazy sunday afternoon, Nikki and Sara welcomed Hannibal Buress (30 Rock, SNL, Late Night, Comedy Central) and Mindy Raf (a standup who is also known for her folk-singer character, Leibya Rogers), along with a delightful audience of friends. First, Sara and Nikki talk about crying and fainting on stage, and then asked Hannibal about the weirdest thing that's ever happened to him while performing. The answer is hilarious, and from there the conversation wanders into his career, his influences, and more. Then, Mindy Raf explains her character Leibya Rogers, before performing two songs and answering questions while in character! Come, walk with us. In your head.

This episode, comedian Nate Bargatze (Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Comedy Central Presents) and Shonali Bhowmik (Tigers & Monkeys, Variety SHAC) join Nikki, Sara, and a small group of friends for a hilarious conversation. First, Sara discusses an odd side job she has, and then Nikki describes an awkward moment with a fan and his wife. When Nate joins in, they talk about Nate's act, performing in Iraq, and more. Then, in a crazy small-world moment, Shonali realizes that Nate's dad is someone near and dear to her heart. The conversation meanders to church camp, journaling to Jesus, and Shonali's music. She brings the podcast to a beautiful finish with two new songs from her solo album, 100 Oaks Revival.

Episode 12: Fallon Writers Mike DiCenzo, Amy Ozols & Bashir Salahuddin

In this very special episode of YHTBT, three writers from Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Mike "Deetch" DiCenzo, Amy Ozols, & Bashir Salahuddin join Sara and Nikki for a meandering but hilarious conversation about writing for the show, "very special" episodes of sitcoms, catchphrase characters, nightmares, and much more. Make sure you stay for the last 10 minutes, in which Bashir interprets the lyrics to two of Deetch's original songs. The two cap it off with a beautiful rendition of the America's Funniest Home Videos theme song!

Episode 11: Sabrina Jalees & Mike Doughty

In this week's episode, Sara and Nikki welcome comedian and Canadian TV personality Sabrina Jalees, beloved musician Mike Doughty (formerly of Soul Coughing), and a loving audience into Sara's Brooklyn apartment. The beers were flowing, as were the hilarious stories and secrets. First, Sara admits to being an adult thumbsucker, and then, Sabrina joins in and tells tales of her own thumbsucking. Sabrina also explains how she burned her neck, and shares a crazy story about getting charged with punching a guy in the nuts. Then, Mike Doughty sings three songs (all really great!), tells an anecdote we like to call Slammadoo, and more. There was so much great stuff for this one, we let it go a little long!
