19 Jan 2026
Chapter 1: Were the reigning champions of iHeart’s Best Comedy Podcast nominated again?
The Lombardi.
We'll take on any comers, even though We will lose. Wait, are we not nominated? Are their nominations out? Maybe I got everything. Maybe I read last year's. The left looks good, too. He's dialed in. Look at those American flag boots he's got on.
I like these kids, and they should have their own show based on what I'm seeing. Like, if this was a live streaming show and you just call it Mullet.
I have one that you might not want to watch. It's called Mr. Bestiality. And what I do is... Dana, here's my opening line.
Okay.
Do you ever walk down the street in LA wearing a puffer coat because it's cold and then you walk by some guy in shorts and you feel like a pussy? Yes. That happens to me too often. Or a guy with a girl, they're both in shorts and they're snickering at me and I'm like, isn't it a little brisk? I'm feeling a chill.
Well, look, I have like eight puffer jackets.
Oh, yeah.
And I've got some lightweight ones, heavier weight ones. And, you know, they're adaptable. So if people judge you, they can come see me.

Oh yes.
what about um conan made a point of saying that um trump jokes are easy i kind of like that he said that we've said that before we've said that sometimes people rely too much on trump because it can be a hat on a hat like it can be it's a story about him is funny already and then when you tell a joke about it you're just you can just retell the what he said and it's funny you know i think conan actually i mean part of what he said was just the anger
the anger is and just instead of a joke it's like trump and if you have the right audience you might get a standing ovation so it's it's it's different it's a different environment i'll just say right i did like that and that was the angle it was yeah you're coming at it with anger instead of just being a comedian and being doing comedy yeah
right it's tempting in a way if you have an audience and they have a very strong point of view about anything any kind of audience and then you kind of co-sign it and you don't necessarily have to be hilarious to go ah it's different than a laugh you get more of a listen during my act i'll take any of the above
i asked so i ran somewhere the grocery store up here i said what do you think of uh flying the ball and he stood back took one step back and went i go is that good or bad when i'm on the road i hear about this people will show me their phone in an airport they're listening to it or that this is how many they've listened to or they asked me about it so uh
like that it's out there i mean people are are knowing something about it because i hear more than i thought i would about it i know it's always kind of weird because podcasting it's like it's not there's not trucks and a crew or anything it's us talking and everybody and amy and everybody it's just people in rooms talking there's no real production so it is kind of like i love your thing where you guys hang out and talk it's danis made in a fake plant against the world
this is me dressed up well I got Superman back there in case anyone knows and that's a fly on the wall leather bag and this is either a real plant now we don't know or a fake plant but I don't know when in podcasting there's like you gotta have a plant man it fills out the room I have real carpet behind me Yeah, you're like in a superstar studio. I'm in an Undisclosed location.

I have a non-secondary joke because I've been doing this for Chris Rios, the hair cutter woman. She loves it so much. This is only for people. She's not that old, but here he is. I can't believe Trump wants Greenland.
Cary Grant, my mom, goes, I knew he was gay. He's so good looking, but nothing, got nothing from him.
It was never proven that I was a homosexual. I'm very advanced. That was a rumor.
Oh, I didn't know you could hear me talking. Okay, I'm sorry.

And Kiefer says, oh yeah. And Billy goes, we said we would bring her out when she got in. And in my head, I'm like, oh great, we're going to see Julia Roberts.

One of them was Laura Dern. Every joke starts, Laura Dern, unbelievable actress. You have to be like, you're... And then you go, Laura Dern is in two movies, Jake Kelly and Is This Thing On? where she plays the sad, beaten down wife of the idiot star husband who has two lines every eight pages. And in one movie says...
you can do this and the other movie she says you can't do this that's a lot of subtext but it's funny though i thought what the main what made me laugh just as a as a comedian occasionally was how sincere she was nikki with you're great i i love you you're so great that's just complete you're so great you've seen this trashy in this movie and you're like wait was that me
