Happy 2021! Jay Hunter is back to defend what at least two of us think is the Citizen Kane of animation -- Sensei Genndy Tartakovsky's animated TV series PRIMAL (available on HBO Max).

Dami's back to share her experience exercising her right as a citizen, which involved no pants, a flashlight and a 3AM outing in search for a drop-off ballot box.

As we know, "theater is dead, a putrid vessel of the forgotten time. The kind of putrid when the skin becomes wax and raccoons not only feed but make love to what's left of the flesh." These are the quotes from today's interview with Chad Austin Pierce, a distinguished theater actor "from one of the Americas," who's graced the stage at many places we never heard of, like Monte's Carnegie Hall (different from *the* Carnegie Hall). Chad Austin Pierce, who proudly doesn't own a pen and refers to writers as "scribblers", predicts that standup comedy will save live theater. He gifts us with a brand-new standup routine where each joke is prefaced with an extensive backstory and character development. "If They're Laughing Too Much, They're Not Bothering To Think."

Dude, drop everything you're (not)doing and listen up. This here in front of your ear holes is a historic reunion between survivalus maximus JORDAN JONAS of the badass TV show ALONE and ZACH GREEN, one of the show's creators. ***BTDUBS, MAJOR SPOILERS FOR ALONE SEASONS 6 and 7*** Do Zach and Jordan believe in luck playing a major part in one's winning the show? Is Jordan regretting being so insanely pissed off about his location? What was the darkest thought haunting him during his Arctic solitude? Does guest cohost Jay Hunter fail to apologize to Jordan for previously describing his voice as "dimwitted"?

Nikki van Schyndel is one of the most incredible souls from TV show ALONE Season 6 (or TV, period. Or life). She is that lady with a great attitude who accidentally hurt herself a bunch but didn't let that stop her. Her teddy bear made from a dead rabbit will haunt my dreams forever. This week, we've got two special co-hosts: Heidi Gardner (SNL) and Zeb Wells (SUPERMANSION, SHE-HULK), both fans of Nikki and ALONE. They know nothing about "the survival industry" (as Zeb puts it) so we had fun juxtaposing their "strategies" of surviving on ALONE with Nikki's. Nikki recalls her experiences on the show and tells us some crazy-ass stories including talking trees, purring predators and, most importantly, reveals how she feels about that bad mofo Jordan Jonas.

Does the state of standup comedy keep you up at night? So we thought. Enter our special guest, "Marco from security" (aka comedian/writer/actor/clown Chad Damiani), who's seen - though not heard - a lot of stand-up comedy over the years. Enough to pitch a solution on how to make it better. Listen to Marco tell us a terrifying story involving a pint of animal blood and his mom with an unusual bust size. Enjoy Marco reading jokes from a notebook he claims to be someone else's. And when we say "jokes," we mean phrases like "If you get a job at Butt World, you always start on a fart time basis" or chafes like "Orgasm werewolf: a full moan instead of full moon" and "maxi pad Thai."

Kazushi Watanabe) starring Hayato Ichihara, Shugo Oshinari and Megumi Okina. Based on a manga (and available on Amazon Prime), this film is as uneven as it gets.

The one and only lady reporter Damiana Garcia is back to discuss her habit of HOARDING -- of toilet paper, pantyhose and fancy expressions like "simulacrum" by her favorite Baudrillard (whose name she pronounces with a *very* French accent). Later, Damiana shares her experience of flirting with the dark web and defends her inner moral compass (which is more moral than anyone else's). Find Damiana on IG.

Today, we continue our conversation with Frater I.C.L. and Bryant Walker, the members of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. We dig deep into the topic of DEMONIC EVOCATIONS (and one invocation). Frater I.C.L. recalls a few stories from the field, including a broken heart, a bruised thigh, a whispering spirit and of course, the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram. Speaking of the pentagram, isn't that the sign of Satan? Is a "blind spirit" actually blind? And what does it feel like to be "taken over" by an Ancient Egyptian god? Listen to find out. This is it for today. You've got "the license to depart." Check out Bry Walker's (aka Mr. Owl's) website. He wrote a new track for our podcast!

Just when you thought we couldn't surprise you any more, we brought you actual practicing ALCHEMISTS. Modern-day alchemy is such a secretive endeavor, one of our guests chose to use a pseudonym (you'll be able to tell who). Both Frater I.C.L. and the returning guest Bryant Walker are also members of The Hermetic Order Of the Golden Dawn, a secret society devoted to the study and practice of the occult, metaphysics, and paranormal activities. Can you actually convert lead into gold? Is the philosopher's stone real? And who is the "collective Shadow" (it's Satan)? Listen to find out. Note: this is Part One of our conversation with Frater I.C.L. and Bryant Walker. Part Two is dedicated to Demonic Evocations. All right, enough for today. Ora, lege, lege, lege, relege, labora et invenies (google it). Check out Bry Walker's (aka Mr. Owl's) website. He wrote a new track for our podcast!

The fabulous lady reporter/influencer/outlier Damiana Garcia comes back to defend the concept of masks... or the concept of taking masks off... or she just this opportunity to talk about her ongoing feud with her neighbor Briahna... we don't really know. If you figure it out by way of listening to this podcast, please email us. Did Damiana hire a Hollywood practical FX artist to build her a special animatronic mask a la Total Recall? Did she use the mask to scare a passerby who proceeded to punch Damiana in the face? And what happened to the 90K she crowd-raised for her suspected coronavirus recovery (spoiler alert: it's Instacarts)? Listen to find out. Find Damiana on IG.

Welcome to the first episode of The Damiana Series! Joining us is the fabulous Damiana Garcia (RuPaul’s Drag Race finale red carpet, THE DAMIANA FILES), a hard-hitting lady reporter from the Rancho Palos Verdes local news affiliate. She's here to praise her idol, Carole Baskin of the TIGER KING fame on Netflix. Is Carole's life an example of a classic "survival story"? Does Damiana possess another, some might say vicious, personality named Claudia? And was Damiana the one who started the #saferathome, albeit in reference to a "white chocolate frapp, extra whip"?

Comedians Tracy Meyer and Howie Kremer come back with another TV show that they love and none of their friends watches: C.B. STRIKE, based on the best-selling novels by Robert Galbraith (aka J.K. Rowling) and starring Tom Burke as Cormoran Strike and, brilliantly, Holliday Grainger as Robin Ellacott. So, like, whodunit? How come there's little to none sexy time in the show? And most importantly, how does Howie feel about Sandra Oh? Email us at [email protected] Twitter/Instagram: @shutupiloveit1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shutupiloveit1/
