Will Martin drives a minivan and now you're the copilot. Join Will as he drives to and from comedy shows in his vintage 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan. He talks to himself, and now, to you!
With the van lying fallow, we record once more in the apartment. A month and a half! We're doin' it folks!!!
Emily and I record while driving!! What a treat!
Live from the couch it's Wednesday night!!!! Emily and I sit down, as we have done almost exclusively for two weeks, and record another tasty ep.
On the way back from Total Loss Roslindale, the illustrious Will "Car Guy" Smalley and I talk about TRUCKS
Emily and I *literally* watch paint dry
Happy one year of podcasting, copilots!!! Emily's back on the cast as we drive her Hyundai Sonata from Hollywood to Hollywood. We talk about living together and classic sitcom gags about putting the toilet seat abound!
Russ left me a voicemail saying only seven minutes of this uploaded yesterday and I would have put it in the intro like a Drake song but I'm busy memorizing sushi????
We've got the man the myth the dad on the podcast this week! Disneyland, Star Wars, and an extended conversation about swordfish.
It's just me this week, recording as safely as possible: while already parked at my destination. I keep thinking I'm going to quit comedy and then having one fun set and being fully back in. Speaking of which: Total Loss is going to be a comedy special! Check out the Indiegogo and make it happen.
Emily is back for a second week in a row! Hear all about our last-minute, ill-planned trip to the middle of California, or as people in LA call it, northern California. Big Sur! Yosemite! An extended suggested update to the script of Frozen II! Enjoy.
One final drive in the 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan with 260,000 miles on it. Emily and I drive back from a movie and reflect on the year, the van, and the Star Wars franchise (no spoilers). Thanks for the mileage Old Boy.
As the mini road trip ends, I record on I-10 West in Arizona as my disassociation completes. This episodes features a special treat: a LIVE episode of Sam Reviews Sodas.
Uploaded from Sam's apartment in Louisville, KY
In the pod's first-eve non-vehicular episode, I sit down with old friend Geena Santiago and talk about comedy and moving to LA and WAITING. I tell the story of why I told a man "welcome back to quiche." This week's episode released in collaboration with Proof the Zine, created by Jeb Perkins with photos by Devin Pabingwit.
After talking for twenty minutes into a mic with a dead battery, we're coming at you live from Route 66! Emily and I took off east to the great state of AZ this weekend for the lovely Tuscon Comedy Arts Fest and lived to podcast about it. The Grand Canyon! Petrified Forest! Saguaro! Farting!
This week I saw movies and now you get to hear about them! My first time in the Cinrama Dome and my first time absolutely roasting the ending of "Platoon."
In which I tell this week's van breakdown saga and read off my favorite reviews of Passenger Side! Leave a review and I might read it on the show if I remember to do that again!
Action! on this week's Passenger Side, wherein I am briefly and tangentially entwined in a medium-speed chase on the 405. Listen to the story of my seven month battle to receive a check that is owed to me! And a several minute description of the now-defunct Cinerama projection process!
Hear about life on set, particularly from the eyes of a *background artist.* I profile the average set demo, but in a fun way. Recorded once more on the way to a frighteningly early extra call time!
Emily is back! On this week's episode of Passenger Side. We capture our first ever live fast food ordering (the Improbably Burger) and you can listen to just how inefficient out order relaying can be! Truly wild.
in which I try to play it cool about Disneyland but eventually talk about Star Wars land for fifteen minutes Plus! Hot takes on the hit new film "Bridge on the River Kwai"
This week's ep coming at you live from fancy fancy condo I'm somehow currently staying in! Thoughts on Hustlers, Pulp Fiction, movie theater seat picking, and the groundbreaking Jack-in-the-Box churro. I still don't have a job!!
Episode 30 comes hot from locked in some classic LA traffic en route to earn some money (???)! The now-weekly movie recap continues. Listen to hear just how slowly I move this whole episode!
It's just me now after Emily left me (to go hang out with her friend (we're still an item))!!! First week in LA is all movies, no progress on any way to make money here. Van upgrades, ticket stubs, comedy notebooks and more on this week's episode of Passenger Side.
Driving down "the" 5 on the way to the city of angels, Emily and I record the last podcast of the roadtrip. It was a great trip and we're excited for this last leg and you cannot tell because it's 105 DEGREES. TOO HOT. Uploaded from Emily's cousin's house in LA.
Broadcasting live* from high atop the Pru**, Emily and I talk Washington travels. North Cascades, Mt. Rainier, Olympic National Parks, the works. Uploaded from a rest stop on Route 27 in Oregon. *prerecorded **a 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan driving down the 101
The roof bag is torn open and we have lost our minds but we've got 4G LTE BABY. Emily and I talk returning down the Alaska Highway and the rest of British Columbia (which turned out to be a pretty long way actually). We can no longer buy Cheezies but we are in America. Does this description make any sense?? Listen to the podcast. Recorded in Bellingham, WA, Land of the Free, and uploaded at McDonald's in Rockport.
Folks! Hello from the public library of Tok Alaska, where we recorded and consequently uploaded this episode. We're in America but out of service, a problem Emily promises to fix in her 2020 campaign. Sitting next to a glacier a six year old child asked us about Donald Trump and we could not have possibly guessed his answer.
Uploaded from a *secret location* this SPECIAL CROSSOVER EPISODE with the Town Meeting boys is a cacophony of joy. Recorded way back in May after Total Loss at Strong Style Coffee, we kick over to the legendary Condon Garage to throw a few back and talk about comedy, music, and Emily's upcoming spin-off podcast, Apps 'n' Chats. Listen now to hear what Emily sounds like without a cough!!!
Featuring an introduction FROM A PLANE, this week's Passenger Side is not only Em and I but our new best friends we met on the plane to Gates of the Arctic National Park. Hear about our friend the park ranger, camping in the most mosquitoes I've ever seen, and whether or not we ever saw a BEAR. Thank you for telling friends about the Total Loss tour, which finished up at Koots in Anchorage Saturday. Means so much. Let's do it again maybe.
WE MADE IT TO ALASKA THE VAN MADE IT TO ALASKA We broke down on the way--hear the story of our journey on a legendarily tough highway to the Last Frontier. TOTAL LOSS is in ANCHORAGE this Saturday July 20. Think back through your life--friends, enemies, the ones that got away--did anyone move to Alaska? Please reach out to them for the first time in years and tell them to come to Total Loss at Koots at 8pm July 20.
REUPLOADED from Tirecraft in Fort Nelson (yes the van broke down). This episode is for sure some sort of breaking point as far as "losing our minds." While approaching Banff we take a detour into Canmore to see a Big Head. Emily describes a sunset and quizzes me on very popular music (VPM). Speaking of we have a treat from Russ Condon of Town Meeting This episode brought to you by Fort Nelson Public Library Wi-Fi.
More like BOAT TRIP. Passenger Side celebrates twenty episodes with our first BOAT EPISODE. More like BOAT-NUS ep. Oh my gosh. Listen for road trip tales. PS I'm uploading this from Mammoth campsite at Yellowstone Nat'l Park which has surprisingly good service. Take note, Old Faithful (trash service).
Will burns his hand and reads signs on the drive. Emily breaks a jar as her cough goes from ancient to baroque. They find the Stranger Things kids at a drive-in restaurant while getting root beer in a frosty mug. IT'S THE ROAD TRIP BABY.
I'm joined by soon-to-be-Passenger-Side-regular Emily Holland as we take off on a two month road trip across this United States. We talk van beds, Chex Mix, and the Total Loss tour. If we get lost in the woods use this recording to determine our possible coordinates.
I’m joined by Passenger Side superfan/theme song creator Russ Condon as we drive home from drinking at a movie theater like absolute psychos. We talk buffets, amusements, and do a live plug theme song even though that’s not a feature from this podcast.
The premise of Passenger Side comes falling down as Will sits in the PASSENGER SEAT while Alan Richardson drives a knife van/moving truck. When the twisted mind of Will Martin and the producing spirit of Alan Richardson get together there's just no telling what could happen (mostly synchronized yelling)!!!!
Will “talks towing” (gets towed) and does a deep dive on The Jeremy Renner App, a very real application you can download for your phone right now.
Incredible improviser Jared Littlejohn joins me on the drive back from a show with the Boston Improv. We talk improviser exhaustion, the time we thought the other was 35, and Cambridge construction detours. Spoilers: Jared bought me Coffee Nut M&Ms as I got gas and changed my life.
Joined by the inimitable Kindra Lansburg and Zachary Brazao, Will drives back from Fall River after a Sonic run. On the way they pass by a charred car, debate ice creams, and pitch a Hallmark movie starring Robert Redford.
Will opens with a reference to a dog medicine commercial and closes with a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT. A Passenger Side exclusive for at least several more hours. Also discussed: the heftiness of Fritos, the X-factor of sedans, the ordeal of buying a projector screen last minute. Final New England Total Losses: May 11 in Fitchburg, May 15 in Beverly, June 15 in Boston. Come see it! Tell your friends to come see it! How fun would that be!
