Aug 25, 2026The guys from Are You Garbage come over for fried chicken livers and giant mortadella sandwiches with fresh pesto, Calabrese peppers, and some seriously old sourdough. We talk about the reality-show moment that almost ended my career, using fame to get Tom Segura into the ER, and why Paul Reiser hated their questions. Then we pitch an Are You Garbage movie set inside IKEA and somehow commit to a $10,000 international candy taste test. Follow Are You Garbage?...

# 724 - Good Charlotte On Being Regular Guy Rockstars
Aug 18, 2026Joel and Benji Madden from Good Charlotte hang with me and we get into growing up working class in Maryland, the anxiety that somehow hit one twin way harder than the other, and how their priorities around fame and success have changed with family. We talk about Silverchair inspiring them early on, playing with Luke Combs at Stagecoach, and what Eddie Vedder’s apology years later taught them. They explain to me about One Piece, how cool Cal Ripken, Jr. is and what I should start...

Something’s Burning: Jordan Jensen + Ian Fidance Were Kicked Off Swim Team | S7 E11
Aug 11, 2026Jordan Jensen and Ian Fidance, from their podcast Bein’ Ian, come by the kitchen where I surprise Ian with the only surviving artifact from the bus fire. We also talk about my questionable method for stopping panic attacks, whether comedians hooking up with fans is a me-too offense, getting kicked off swim team and the anchovy bone that nearly killed me at a Travel Channel dinner. And all this while I make enough Loco Moco to feed an army. Follow Jordan:...

# 723 - Russell Dickerson Bet Everything on “Yours”
Aug 4, 2026Russell Dickerson hangs out with me to talk about staying authentic and building a country music career after every label passed on him. We get into how his wife helped turn “Yours” into a hit, growing up in a musical family, his teenage metal phase, fatherhood, marriage, and why being a goofy husband and dad works better than trying to act like a mysterious country star. Plus, we talk about his new album, Famous Back Home, and the thrill of drinking in the South.Follow Russell:...

Jul 28, 2026Punk legends Fat Mike and El Hefe, of NOFX fame, come by the kitchen and I immediately fan-girl out on them and their new documentary. We talk about the final tour, the pressure of playing the same songs for 40 years, the weird beauty of self-deprecation, and what it means to actually be punk. There are coke stories, Bad News Bears lies, and a song about how no one can pronounce my last name. Follow NOFX: https://www.instagram.com/nofx Fat Mike: https://www.instagram.com/fatmikedude El...

# 722 - Jake Johnson Doesn’t Want Johnny Depp Money
Jul 21, 2026Jake Johnson drops by and we compare our completely opposite approaches to set etiquette, life on the road and surprise parties. We also get into dyslexia, raising kids who think differently, money, fame, and my completely reasonable anger over Apple TV’s release schedule of his new bingeable show, Maximum Pleasure Overdrive… I mean Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed.

Jul 14, 2026I’ve got Nigel Ng, AKA Uncle Roger, and Jimmy O Yang and for some insane reason I decided to cook Uncle Roger’s famous fried rice from his new cookbook. We talk Asian algorithms, Jamie Oliver, wet markets, Midwest sports culture, and why white guys have unshakable confidence. We also cover gout drinks, Genghis Khan, and colonialism. It’s a real spectrum of topics… Follow Nigel: https://www.instagram.com/mrnigelng Jimmy: https://www.instagram.com/jimmyoyang Sponsors: Everything420 - Head...

# 721 - Pete Holmes Thinks We’re All Being Primed
Jul 7, 2026Pete Holmes is back and this one somehow turns into a full-blown therapy session about comedy, anxiety, priming, Instagram, sobriety, and why your brain is probably being hijacked by everything you scroll past. We also talk Shane Gillis, Chelsea Handler, bad press, and Pete’s special Silly Silly Fun Boy — which is honestly phenomenal.
