What is the Loser Line and how does it work?
Hey Portlandia fans.
Carrie Brownstein and Fred Armison here.
The Dream of the 90s is alive in podcast form.
We're launching Podlandia AO Rewatch, our brand new podcast where we revisit every episode of Portlandia together, breaking down sketches, going deep on our iconic characters, and pulling back the curtain on how it all got made.
And we'll also be joined by the people who helped
Bring it all to life. Guest stars, collaborators, and friends, including director Jonathan Chrysler, the mayor himself, Kyle McLaughlin, legendary musician Amy Mann, and many more.
Kyle is going for it here. You fully improvise, not just words, but a song a mel I thought you were all gonna write a song. I remember you thinking that. Listen to Podlandia, AAO Rewatch on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Hey, this is Hayes Davenport. And Sean Clemens. We host the podcast Hollywood Handbook. Every episode we're trying to help our guests improve their careers by mainly focusing on how they can help us improve our careers.
The show's famously super accessible, so you can easily jump into any of our 650 episodes and understand what's going on.
We recommend some of our recent episodes with Ben Stiller, Danny McBride, Riz Ahmed, and Mary Steenbergen.

I'm Nick Tutoro. You probably know me from NYPD Blue, The Longest Yard, or Spike Lee's Black Klansman. And on my new podcast, Delivering Happiness with Nick Tutoro, I deliver pizza to a new guest. I've shared a slice with everyone, from Seth Rollins. What are you doing, my belt, to Bill Burr. I don't think I've ever met somebody so exactly out of their mind as I am. And now we even have more great guests coming up, including the great John DeTuro.
It's called Happiness. Delivering Happiness.
And many, many more. Open your free Hi-Hot Radio app, search Delivering Happiness with Nick DeTuturo, and listen now.
This is Chelsea Handler from Dear Chelsea. Every week the news gets worse, the world gets crazier, and Yamanika is here to tell whoever's responsible, you're the problem.
Do you know I just found out who Sydney Sweeney was? If he got a bunch of women, then I should have a bunch of men. Do better or do less so I don't have to do so much. I'm Yamonika and I'm out. Listen to You're the Problem with Yamonika on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I'm Nancy Glass, host of the Burden of Guilt season three podcast. This is a story about a horrendous situation that destroyed two families. It's a scorched earth war that shows just how far someone will go to get what they want.
Cindy said I had to choose between the truth and my family, and I had to choose the truth.

Hey girl, what's up with you? Wait a minute, is this the right number? It's the loser line. Come on, just call me back. If you haven't heard the loser line before, it works like this. Let's say a guy approaches you while you're out at the club and uses this charming pickup line on you. Hi there, pretty lady. I I just heard from the bouncer he's gonna kick you out. Oh no. The reason why is because your hotness makes all the other women here look bad. Oh even my girlfriend. Oh. But whatever you do, don't tell him his cologne smells like wet dog. Instead, plug your nose and ask him if he likes to party. That's when you give him the number of the loser line, so hopefully he leaves an awkward voicemail we can play on the air.
Voicemails like this one. Next message. Hey Eugen, this is Dan. You gave me your number. problem that I have that I need to talk to you about is um I can't find it.
Oh.
My Miggy Uh I'm hoping that maybe you picked it up or that you've seen it, you saw it fall on the ground. I don't know. I told you about my little Miggy. I've had it since I was a baby. I carry it with me because it it keeps me calm. Uh Please, um I really need it.
