Ari Shaffir's Skeptic Tank - #71: Menage Blah (Kurt Metzger, Karen Margolis)
play

Kurt Metzger and I went to see Batman with his girlfriend, Karen Margolis, and her sister wife, Sade. Kurt and Karen are boyfriend/girlfriend. Karen and Sade are BFFs. And Sade and Kurt have sex. So we did podcast about the movie but mostly about this unique relationship they all have. It works so great for them they couldn't even understand why I was interested. The sound sucks, sorry, but it's better in part 2.

Theo Von met me at a secret hike in LA to do a walking podcast about hiking. Theo's a hilarious comic but he's also hiked Mount Kilimanjaro. I climb hills, bro. Hills. He climbed a giant mountain. It was a fun talk and it really puts you in the place where we were. I love these "on-location" podcasts.

Liberal mouthpiece Joe Rogan, and I guess heterosexual comedian Tony Hinchcliffe met me at a gun range in Texas to shoot the poop and tell stories about the past while Tony caressed his new girlfriend. We took some questions from my Patreon to keep us going while listening to the manly sounds of murder tools going off in the distance.

Both Tony and Joe are about to get that Skeptic Tank bump! So look for them to breakthrough on the scene in the near future. This was actually supposed to be just me and Tony on this one but Joe showed up and we figured it’d be nice to at least have one gram of testosterone on the pod.

Ari Shaffir's Skeptic Tank - #67: Cuts Like a Knife

#67: Cuts Like a Knife

Ari Shaffir's Skeptic Tank

07/09/12 • 0 min

My friend came to my apartment and let me ask her questions about cutting herself. It turns out, the problems went way deeper than the cuts did. She spent multiple stints in rehab facilities to try and overcome her problems with self abuse. See, cutting was just the beginning. She also had to deal with anorexia. It's a complex web.

We got a whopper! Comedian and mom Ms Pat join comedian and America’s dad Bob Saget, comedian and dad Rich Vos, comedian and father of a son who loves me more than him Robert Kelly, and fatherless multi-time abortionist, me, as they talk about what it’s like to have and raise a child. We cover such important topics as when to beat your children (Pat and I agree on this one but I probably say to do it more than she says), the hemorrhoids women get during childbirth (I am a mother in this way), and what it’s like at Ms. Pat’s house with all her lesbo and hetero kids running around. Saget and I had both been over there. I got crushed at spades by her daughter and Bob had narrowly escaped getting beaten up after being mistaken for a banker.

This was recorded live at Skankfest South, the greatest comedy festival on the earthly planet. It is a pure expression of the joy of live comedy. Get tickets to next year’s event. I won’t be there.

Big announcement of how I beat covid during the intro. And stay tuned for the outro where I break down what a jerk Dumbledore was to Harry Potter and how much I wanted to beat on the fans at Universal Studios.

I think this episode finally helped me figure out how to properly do a live episode of Skeptic Tank. It’s gonna be a fun, lighthearted topic, and I have to get out of the way of the other comics and just let them go off. My job on these is as a producer and I’ll just snipe away a little ala Mark Normand.

Bonnie McFarlane met me in Montreal to talk about this theory going around that women aren't funny. She just finished shooting a movie on the subject and she's a funny woman herself, so she had a lot of really good insight on the subject.

Ari Shaffir's Skeptic Tank - #473 Festival of Hustlers with Ali Siddiq
play

06/01/22 • 180 min

Former hustler and current standup Ali Siddiq talks with a man who rarely hustles but still does tons of standup Ari Shaffir to talk about all the lessons life gives you. One guy slung dope, the other is one. It's a great conversation from Austin, Texas that brought two cultures together. That taught two peoples about each other. It's a lesson in communication. The boyz realized that words mean different things to different people. But they also realize how similar they were in their upbringing. Even though one dealt drugs, they both remember the space shuttle Challenger explosion. They just kind of had different reactions to it. I'll let you guess which one joked about it as a child and which one thought it was really sad. Ali is one of the best storyteller comedians in the world and he's got a new special out called The Domino Effect which goes a long way towards proving that claim. Check it out now on YouTube.com/AliSiddiq or on his website, AliSiddiq.com.

Jessica Ahlquist drove all the way from Rhode Island to my New York apartment to tell me about her lawsuit to have a prayer banner removed from the walls of her public school. She's an amazing woman and her courage really helps make me feel like a coward for not standing up for more things I believe in. Really interesting conversation.

I'm playing Royersford, PA on Sunday. Mark Normand is opening (probably). 6pm show is sold out, 9pm show just added. https://nightout.com/events/arishaffir9pm/tickets or arishaffir.com for tickets.

Steve Rannazzisi, Shane Gillis and Corinne Fisher came over to the Skeptic Tank Studio to talk about what it's like going through a mass internet backlash. It has many names, online mobs, cancel culture, outrage, but I like to call it e-rage. We talked about the similarities in all their situations while we detailed each of their experiences in more depth.

I've been trying to get this podcast done for literally years and it did not disappoint. One of the most interesting conversations I've ever hosted on Ari Shaffir's Skeptic Tank

Please subscribe to Patreon.com/AriShaffir to help me survive the next e-rage that hits me so I can go on making the content that interests me without having to worry or edit myself based on the financial implications of that decision. And there are also bonus podcasts each week. So, win-win.

Each of today's guests have their own podcast. Give them each a chance by listening to at least one episode and seeing if maybe they'll make it into your rotation.

Steve Rannazzisi has a podcast called "What's The Odds"

Shane Gillis has a podcast called "Matt And Shane's Secret Podcast"

Corinne Fisher has a podcast called "Without A Country"
