Taking A Break...

Apologies for the lack of crap lately! Here's a little explanation about what's been going on and what the future has in store for PBO. An endless thank you to you all. Heart emoji.
And for that reason, we’re out… side. This week we set up in front of what is perhaps humanity’s most revolutionizing contribution to this world… the Pink Wall where influencers pose for the gram. Shark Tank’s Daymond John joins us for an awkward episode and helps us interview those who may be the entrepreneurs of the next generation: our country’s youth. Guests include some begrudged fans of Laufey who’ve been waiting in the sun for over three hours, a tattoo artist obsessed with words, and an aimless twenty-year-old responsible for making claw machines impossible to win. Recorded 9/10/23 in West Hollywood, California.  This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp — go to http://betterhelp.com/outside to get 10% off your first month.

Friend and Otherworld host Jack Wagner joins us to talk to strangers about their creepy lives. Guests include a woman who only came to this event because she had just been kicked out of a different event, an ex-abusive father/cop/gang member who’s turned a new leaf since doing ayahuasca 27 times, and some middle schoolers who are too afraid to pursue their crushes.

Boy howdy and yeehaw, we hit the dirty streets of Austin to see what the nightlife is like.

Guests include a pastry assistant who loves to go out by herself, a retail employee trying to break into the fashion world, and a couple of knackered UK blokes on holiday in the states trying to shack up with a non-pretentious bird.

We recently switched to temporarily releasing episodes bi-weekly because posting every week made us feel like workaholics. So to tap into our former selves, we thought it only made sense to invite a co-host who’s the biggest Workaholic we know— our friend Blake Anderson. Guests include a Gen Z credit union employee with a worrisome diet, an army veteran & musically gifted man-child, and an electrician who might be a litttttle obsessed with Blake.

184: At A Pastor's Wedding

2023-05-3101:15:42

We’re big fans of making the sign of the cross, and even bigger fans of making religious people cross our sign; so you could imagine our excitement when we found out we were set up at a pastor’s wedding. Guests include a new father who very much misheard a popular song lyric for the majority of his life, a couple who disagrees on the appropriate amount of time before they can use the bathroom in front of one another, and a young secular man who just married a pastor.

Love love? We love love too, but we love talking about love even more!

Guests include a young man grappling with his own guilt and unfair double standards of a successful dating app hookup, an aspiring lawyer who was cheated on during her 3 year situationship, and an Armenian rental car employee who curved a celebrity and is about to give an unhoused man $700 for a painting he has yet to see.

We feel like total scabs writing this description right now. Don’t understand why? Don’t fret, because the man who knows literally everything (Adam Conover) joins us to explain this whole writers' strike. But that’s not all we talk about! Guests include a Turkish podcast employee who’s smitten about her long distance Turkish Bumble boyfriend, a former child actor/current actress whose husband didn’t make a great first impression on her, and TV writer with his son who wants to be a football player.

When passing a 7-Eleven, you’ll likely think about slurpees, or scratch-offs, or sticks of beef, or dried out taquitos, or wet hard boiled eggs in sweaty little plastic baggies. But thankfully, after listening to this episode, you’ll now have something new to think about: a 71-year-old virgin who’s obsessed with god. This very kind man is our only guest this week, and we talk to him for the entire episode while comedian, friend, and polar opposite of virgin Steph Tolev helps us interview him. This is a great one, and we couldn’t feel more blessed. (More candid thoughts on Patreon.)

Oh, you lasted 8 seconds on a bull? Cool story bro, cause we lasted an hour and three minutes next to a mechanical one.

I have been teaching in the Gulf Middle East for the past 6 years, and it is nice to hear about the "goings on" in California. I feel less homesick for my culture and language... thank you, keep it up!
