    Glittery Lube and Leprechauns (with Jason Moyer and Bradley Michaud)

    This is our first episode featuring a married couple! Bradley Michaud married our college bestie Jason Moyer, and we love them both so much we wish we were their sister wives. Regarding the topic of illness, one is a delicate flower who has barely had more than strep, and the other has survived two near-death experiences and talks about them as if they were trips to a theme park. Tune in for vivid descriptions of hospital room hallucinations, high school blood donations, and drug use accusations. (Poetry, people!)

  • The Real Money's in the Prostate (with Dion Flynn)

    The Real Money's in the Prostate (with Dion Flynn)
    Jul 30 2024

    Dion Flynn is a comedian and staff writer on The Tonight Show, where he frequently appears as various outrageous characters who make Jimmy Fallon laugh his bum off. Dion talks to us about one of his early gigs as a standardized patient, which is an actor hired to simulate an illness for the purposes of helping medical students practice their diagnosing techniques. Wait until you hear about a fellow actor who often stayed after hours to endure up to 20 prostate exams at a time in exchange for extra cash. This prompted us to coin the term "prostate-tution", making us feel very clever indeed.

  • My Kidney Stones Look Like Granola (with Wali Collins)

    My Kidney Stones Look Like Granola (with Wali Collins)
    Jul 23 2024

    Wali Collins is an award winning corporate comedian, actor, producer and author. He joined us shortly after his second bout with kidney stones, so the details were fresh in his memory and the stone was fresh in a cup next to his computer. Wali described what the stone felt like as it was passing through his "tube-age", and he and Julia bonded over their shared memory of a childhood game where kids squeeze each other until someone passes out. Charming! Ellie was horrified, but offered information about anal strep - yes it's a thing - along with a hearty suggestion NOT to google it.
