Couples Therapy

Naomi first met Sonia doing stand-up back in New York, and then we really dug her New Negroes set and now we have her on the pod! You might know Sonia Denis from her stand-up or as a writer on A Black Lady Sketch Show or from the new Marvel joint Ironheart, but even if this is your first time meeting Sonia, strap in! We jump right into the mental health talk and find out the best place to cry in New York, talk about starting therapy even when your parents think it's superfluous, dating a narcissist while being invaded by raccoons and SO MUCH MORE!

The response to Adam Pally's advice a few episodes ago was EXPLOSIVE, so rather than try to rush through a single comment in an intro, we thought, "Why not just do a Naomi and Andy solo episode where we can really put up our feet and take our time?" We discuss the response from both listeners and the original advice-seeker, we hear some updates, discuss some out of pocket behavior in a work environment, learn about the 1993 Onyx hit "Slam", and answer advice questions about terrible work environments and governments that don't give a shit.

We love Tom, and it's been four years since he's last been on the show, so we had to have him back! Now, of course you know Tom from shows and movies like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar, Witches of East End, an episode of Six Feet Under, Boogie Nights and many, many other things, including the fantastic sketches he posts on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/tommylenk]. Back for the second time, we talk about how he met his boyfriend, how he's been coping since his therapist retired, his one strange co-star in a show we won't name, the way Hollywood harms your mental health, and of course, Naomi confronts him with the journalistic integrity of 100 Amy Goodmans and asks, "What are you running from?" PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions!

Chelsea Peretti is a fun hang! And we've been fans of hers for a while (her old comedy group back in NYC Variety SHAC was the cat's pajamas, and we love love love her 2014 Netflix special One of the Greats!), so it was a real pleasure to goof around with her for a while. (And of course, you know Chelsea from tons of stuff including Brooklyn Nine-Nine, her film First Time Female Director or her podcast Call Chelsea Peretti) We get into balancing weirdness and vulnerability both on stage and in real life, going to therapy as a kid, wanting to have a child and SO MUCH MORE!
