Oct 6, 2026The ladies from I Mom So Hard come by and turn my kitchen into group therapy with a guest appearance by LeeAnn.

# 727 - Too $hort on Why “Blow the Whistle” Never Goes Away

Sep 22, 2026As one of the BIGGEST KISS fans of all time, I can’t help but fanboy out to Nick Simmons and Evan Stanley about their dads… We talk about what’s it’s really like growing up with Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, being nepo babies, starting their own bands and why fans apparently forgot how insane rock stars used to dress. I also relive my hilariously terrible first interaction with Gene - and how I eventually got the apology I never thought I needed. And, all while I make coffee-crusted...

We get into the real stories behind “Jenny Jenkins” and “Lucy,” our shared love of Passion of the Christ, and somehow try to FaceTime Aaron Rodgers while talking about Dave Matthews. I make marinated chicken thighs over feta with risotto and broccolini, then Mt. Joy breaks out the instruments and plays “Astrovan” and “Lucy” live. Follow Mt. Joy:...

# 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.
