How Were U Brainwashed?

RE-RELEASE "Gay Jaundice Son" (w/ Guy Branum)

After a quick present-day catch-up with Jenny & Nicole where they get into The Comeback finale and if they should go to Bravofest in Charleston, we revisit the groundbreaking ep with the incredibly smart, funny, charming comedian, actor (Bros, Hacks, Platonic) & writer (The Other Two, The Mindy Project, Q-Force) Guy Branum! They get into sad lights & testosterone increasing red lights (?), the liberation of taking off your shirt in a park, the amount of Family Guy references in Prince Harry's book, the undeniable brainwashing we receive around the fat body and it's worth, the act of performing shame on an airplane, the battle of fatphobic costume designer vs. fat actor, and which Sound of Music characters everyone is. @guybranum @theheiser @nicolespiezio @howwereubrainwashedpod ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

"Three Skeletons" (w/ Jacob Perkins)

This week on the pod, Jenny and Nicole welcome playwright, actor, and clinical mental health counselor Jacob Perkins to the pod! We get into Nicole's cat wreaking havoc at the vet, Jenny's son only wanting to hear Scar's song from "The Lion King," which TikTok doctor we should trust about hantavirus, the psychology behind wanting to win an Oscar, reevaluating what success looks like as we get older, and how we are all ultimately just skeletons walking around. @theheiser @nicolespiezio @howwereubrainwashedpod ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

"You Were a Tyrant" (w/ Jenny & Nicole)

In today's episode solo ep, Jenny & Nicole get into some real brainwashing about weight and bodies, Jenny's upcoming Ladies of London highlights tour, how Strangers is rich people porn, if reading outside will finally make us happy, if we'd rather be stuck in an elevator alone or with strangers, the healing properties of Spa Castle, Amanda's WILD tone on the Summer House reunion leaked audio, what the hell is a "pizza chip", and our undying loyalty to Ashley I. @theheiser @nicolespiezio @howwereubrainwashedpod ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

"Tooth Fees" (w/ Grace Glowicki)

In today's episode, Jenny & Nicole are joined by incredible filmmaker and actor (Dead Lover, Tito) Grace Glowicki!

"Complete Buffoonery" (w/ Ruby Roo)

In today's episode, Jenny & Nicole are joined by iconic NYC drag queen Ruby Roo! They get into what the drag/nightlife scene is like these days, doing corporate gigs during pride month, what it was like being raised in the Footloose religion, Cats vs. Death of a Salesman, if we're allowed to scream at the stage during Rocky Horror on Broadway, bible quizzing, if "were you there?!" is the ultimate comeback, who Jesus's great great grandfather was, and how many times Ruby has ridden a camel. @rubyrubyroo @theheiser @nicolespiezio @howwereubrainwashedpod ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
