Comedians David Feinberg and Jarrod Micale interview guest comedians each week.
Jarrod Micale and David Feinberg
comedy, learn, great questions and great.
Listeners of So Tell Us that love the show mention: great comedians,Audrie Marsh joins Chris and Jarrod to talk about their worst stand-up shows. Jarrod makes a new friend named Dick Knupp and Chris does a deep dive on his Insane Clown Posse show. Plus they bring in Pat George to confirm Eric Navarro's dark past. Audrie is recording her hour special on April 16 at TellUs 360 in Lancaster, Pa. Get tickets to see her and Jarrod. Or stare at Chris in the audience. He likes it.
Kyle Shahan and Andrew Brooks drop into the studio to spend time with Jarrod and Chris, per their community service agreement, no doubt. Chris gets excited about Royal Farms coming into his area and details the time he wanted to fight a woman over $40. Jarrod talks about his fast food expertise and some questionable sound at the shows in Lititz, Pa. Kyle's got a Phantom Menace soda and Andrew will crash his car if he sees a pickle in his burger. It's a journey.
Chris goes into teacher mode to explain to Jarrod why trains are derailing in Ohio and Michigan. Jarrod teaches Chris about l the silly city names this country has to offer. Have you ever been to Accident, Md.? How about Pee Pee Township? What about Deepthroat, Iowa? Toad Suck, Ark.? One of those isn't real. But which one? Regardless, they're all going to get a Chernobyl-style chemical peel eventually. Also, has anybody seen Jarrod's jacket?
Jarrod and Chris are Antonio-less today, but they're powering through on the strength of Dateline episodes. Chris is against capitalism as long as it doesn't take away his AirPods Pro 2 and discloses a murder in his hometown. Jarrod is recovering from Chris' super-spreader comedy show and might be praying to a false prophet. I guess we'll find out eventually.
King of the Hill is coming back and this group of 'Busters have some theories. How old is Bobby going to be? Is Ladybird coming back? Chris and Jarrod explain to Antonio what scrapple is. Jarrod wants his coffee to be, well, diverse. Chris is particular about his meat accompaniment. Antonio is going to Mexico to marry his sister. Or something like that. I wasn't really paying attention. Whatever.
This episode is brought to you buy the band Train and the Walgreens that plays them. Chris admits his biggest fat-guy secret and it involves meat he found on the internet. Antonio doesn't mind watching wrestling, unless country music is involved. Jarrod takes a hard stance on socks as a gift. Finally.
Harrisburg comedian Andrew Brooks joined the guys this week and told them about the time he had to explain sex terms to his mom. How do you guys bond with your parents? Jarrod is buying Chris a new shirt he found on Facebook, Antonio has a tapestry and Chris throws shade on a co-worker just because he killed his wife. Big deal. Plus we get Raymond the Amish Comic. What a treat for the ears.
Chris and Jarrod are back and brought in David Goggins to motivate them. They decided the price of being bad is less than $6. Chris gets a new NBA game and realizes white is not always the best color. Weird conclusion for a guy from central Pennsylvania. Jarrod knows where the real heaven is. It's in a basketball bit.
Anybody hungry for some McDonald's? Well, you won't be soon. Antonio's got a pet roach and Jarrod takes the guys virtual shoe shopping. Chris learns that pimps are bad. Then the three guys give a special preview of Jackast, a Jackass podcast. Too bad it's a joke. That poor Philreally needed something to go his way.
Here's a question you've never thought you'd be asked: How much TCBY is too much for a man who murdered his wife? The answer might surprise you. Chris decides he's the gayest of the three. Antonio lives in the land of fast food. And Jarrod is against the evolution of grocery-store shopping.
The guys are back with a lesson on ska. Is it one Suicide Machine or several and why does Disney have them? It's probably for the kids who kick Goofy at the park. Antonio admits to liking Kristen Stewart and Audrey Plaza, but not his preferred jeans or vacation spot. Because he's an adult. Chris likes a mean lady, and he once broke his penis. Coincidence? Jarrod sings Fastball and announces his Pennsylvania-centered, nationwide stand-up tour, including a spot at the Fetterman's Ball -- the crown jewel of the "Catskills Comics'" circuit.
Chris got his chance to start the podcast this week and he wasted it on examining musicians' packages. To be fair, we all should've seen this coming. I mean, he can't imagine them like the rest of us. He tries to sell Jarrod on watching Wild Hogs. It doesn't go well. Antonio tells the story of a rock that's led him to the single life and Jarrod finds out how the Green Ranger died and gets ready for Saturday Night Live.
Chris needs a new job and Jarrod is on the case. Chris might need more help than that. Good thing J.D., D.J. and B.J. McGillicuddy stopped by the podcast. They're all about helping others. Antonio is likeable because he might stab people. So listen to the podcast or Antonio will be your friend, too. You've been warned.
Jarrod, Chris and Antonio are back to discuss the United States' role on climate change and how its geopolitical stance has changed since the end of the Cold War. They interview a microbiologist from Princeton to examine to affects global thermonuclear war would have on the vegetation rates of ... oh, who the hell am I kidding? They spent like 16 minutes talking about mac and cheese and which snack goes best with soda. Just listen to the episode. A Dunkin' Donuts burned down and the town of Shamokin is lost.
The doctor is in and he knows all about Lewy Body dementia. He just doesn't know where his hands are. Jarrod, Chris and Antonio go down the list of famous people with Parkinson's and then judge their work. Plus Antonio secures his place in Italian hell. Also, have you ever heard the N-word on the news? No? Well, you're in luck.
Everybody, behave. We just found out Antonio's mom and Chris' parents are listening. They're very good boys and always have been, all right? Chris tries to teach Antonio and Jarrod a little bit about everything and Jarrod takes a crack at his Owen Walken impression. Yeah. You read that right. This episode is Gotho Man approved.
Jarrod, Chris and Antonio have a message for all their listeners: Vote by mail. Sure, it's a bit late. But that doesn't mean it's any less important. ... So what if it does? No one asked you. Unless you're Cuba Gooding, Sr., no one cares what you have to say. (Omar Gooding's pretty cool, too.) Jarrod wore his house Birkenstocks to the recording and he and Antonio have questions about Chris' teaching credentials. Plus Antonio learns who Hilary Clinton and Ron DeSantis are. It's a big day in the neighborhood.
The very special episode of Riffbusters was endorsed by John Fetterman, the founder of Carhart or hoodies, I think. One of them. Chris and Jarrod teach Antonio all about politics and what Pennsylvania is. Jarrod doesn't like marshmallows and Chris and Antonio take a quiz on state nicknames. Yep. It's come to this.
Chris, Jarrod and Antonio are back with a new episode. We find out who Paul Sorvino is, what's the worst ice cream name and why Chris shouldn't have been left unsupervised in his dad's basement. Jarrod doesn't leave home without a Pop-Tart in the car and Antonio reveals to the world that he's lost his inner-child. It's another episode. Just listen to it, all right?
Have you ever wondered what it's like to take a shower at a Greyhound bus depot? Well, of course you have. Who hasn't? An entire bus in Arizona, it turns out. Jarrod details a wonderful experience with a Nigerian man. Yes. It's shower-related. Antonio discovers what makes Chris angry. Chris finds a new way to get his wife to leave the room. It's all coming together for these guys.
The guys are back and this time, they've got trivia questions. Are you smarter than Jarrod, Chris or Antonio? Chances are strong. But you don't have a podcast, do you? I didn't think so. We find out Antonio's alternative name and what's in Tony Hawk's fridge. Plus Chris gives tips on how to defeat a debt collector and Jarrod explains how he made one punch a wall, probably. What more do you need from a podcast?
Jarrod brings Corn Pops to the podcast and finds is looking for a Jurassic Park toy. Because he's 9. Chris shows off his Shark tattoo and his legs. Antonio is not married, guys. He is not married. You got that? Not married. Not. But his dogs are definitely in charge. Come back to 1996 and listen as the guys watch the 101 Dalmatians trailer and a story of the man with 1,000 orgasms a day. You won't find a more ... eclectic podcast than this.
Jarrod, Chris and Antonio are back with Mike Peters, who's got a mouse problem or a cat problem or a house problem. The dude's got a lot of problems, all right? We find out Antonio was on a national Skittles commercial. Why he's still slumming it with these folks is a real mystery. (Did you know there are two Ys in mystery? It sounds right, but looks weird. It's not a new word. I've seen it before. It just, you know, looks off. What's happening?) Jarrod discusses the West Memphis Three and Chris decides which one of them is the best looking. Totally on brand.
Mike Peters joins Jarrod, Chris and Antonio and ... it didn't get any better. That's what happens when instead of a classy guest, you simply invite the closest. Chris and Jarrod discuss the difference between the words retard and 'tard and Mike tells a couple stories about his mentally-handicapped sister. Antonio lets his dog emasculate him. It's pretty typical, really. It's been 62 episodes. What did you expect?
Antonio and Jarrod decide Chris isn't cut out for Hogwarts and the world almost came to an end. It's a wild one. Chris is getting drunk and will defend his Payday until the day Jarrod chokes on a Rice Krispy-infused Nestle Crunch bar. Yep. It's candy bars and cereal this week. At least they're not making you listen to Arnold Schwarzenegger quotes or something stupid like that. You really think they'd waste your time by doing that? That's almost as bad as making you listen to old episodes of Quantum Leap or something.
What do you get when you combine 1980s rap, old commercials and a story about a man with a Big Mac addiction? Thirty-three minutes of your life saying, “Goodbye, idiot.” Come along as Jarrod and Chris show Antonio all about how Dan Gorski's had 30,000 Big Macs and defied logic and nature by getting a wife. Jarrod starts to look for the most vulgar rap song before a flashing item caught his attention. Then the guys learn about the existence of the Taco Bell Beach House, the real holy land.
Chris and Jarrod welcome back Antonio, who still hasn't found something else to do. Chris teaches the guys a math lesson, with the help of Scott Steiner, and Antonio had a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle sighting in Arizona. Plus Jarrod finds out Chris has another podcast and then they debate who looks like more of a pedophile. Will this friendship survive the ultimate test? Honestly, who cares?
Chris and Jarrod are back with their new co-host, Antonio. It's almost official. Not artwork official. But close. Chris gets defensive about Knoebels' standing among national amusement parks. Antonio calls Jerry "The King" Lawler sexist, for some strange reason. Jarrod digs into his inner Macho Man to find the true secrets behind 9/11. Hey. You can't get mad at them anymore because Anontio isn't white. That's the rule. Chris and Jarrod will be at Phantom Power on Sundy, Sept. 18: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/point-of-view-comedy-showcase-tickets-416026575687?fbclid=IwAR2PhA82eydu6ScGOxM2m-h-9qcEyooSvZoaTeyEpTTSYmBwXpvJxsus0UE
Chris and Jarrod are back to watch something while you listen. This is what happens when you let anybody record with no rules. It's complete anarchy and the internet needs to stop. In this very special episode, Chris gets high on whipped cream, Jarrod gets yelled at for answering the door and they watch Extreme Cheapskates. You can watch along -- or instead. Your call.
Antonio joins Jarrod and Chris for Part II of their conversation. They pay homage to King of the Hill and Chris spits on The Simpsons. Everybody knows Season 3 is when The Simpsons gets really good. But did he watch that? Of course not. Because he's not cultured. Unlike Jarrod and Antonio, who get all their entertainment from Instagram reels and Nathan Fielder. This is the future, folks. Yikes.
Antonio is back with Jarrod and Chris, for some reason. Certainly, there's something better happening in Arizona. There has to be. Jarrod asks if bigger people get scared and Chris pulls a gun on him. (That might be a little out of context. But it's way more interesting this way.) Antonio gives his latest movie run-down and turns his back on Seinfeld.
Jarrod and Chris are still on the hunt for Eddie Halloween. Did you really think they'd give up so easily? So did I. But the real question is: Why haven't you found him? Pathetic. Anyway, Jarrod is helping Chris find a new job and they sing old jingles and watch bear attacks. How do you spend your days? You're being very judgmental for someone who still hasn't found Eddie Halloween.
Jarrod and Chris are back and they have a problem -- and it has nothing to do with the sword Jarrod found in his dad's office. They're looking for Eddie Halloween, a man who might not actually exist. Eddie Halloween sang in a Misfits cover band. Or was it an Iron Maiden cover band? Eddie Halloween is somewhere and he's average height. Maybe a little taller. If you've seen Eddie Halloween, please let them know. Eddie Halloween is missing and Chris and Jarrod are very worried. Oh, yeah. Chris hates his job and Jarrod's dad likes Corvettes. Eddie Halloween.
Rob Cibik and Audrie Marsh stop by the studio to help Chris teach Jarrod about politics. Is he a liberal? Is he a conservative? Is he Brandon? Chris reveals the worst part of Roe vs. Wade being overturned: The negative effect it had on his wedding. Did you guys know Chris got married? Rob got married in 1991 for tax purposes. Jarrod taught his dad about racism and Chris and Audrie bond over their very masculine guns.
The boys are back and this time, they're ... singing? Well, at least it's something current, right? Right? Jerry and the Pacemakers? Son of a bitch. Chris' life was ripped off for a video game called "The Adventures of Chris" and Jarrod gives his thoughts on anal sex. Then they combine to serenade us with their renditions of Great Balls of Fire.
Boston comedian Katlin McFee joins the podcast against her will and Chris and Jarrod talk to her about a wedding to which she wasn't invited. This is why they don't have many friends. Jarrod and Chris get naked together, and they talk about drive-thru strip clubs. (That previous comma is very important because it signifies they're two independent clauses. Without it, Chris and Jarrod would be almost naked while they talked about drive-thru strip clubs, which paints a much more interesting picture that likely ends with Jarrod looking around and saying, “I wonder where the stripper is.” English is fun.)
Chris and Jarrod have their phones in hand and they're proud of it. If you want high-quality content, listen to something that isn't free. You're cheap, so this is what you get. When you think about it, it's kind of your fault. Be better and you'll get better. Anyway, Jarrod and Chris dive deep into the NBA – who's tall, who's short and that Darren Collison is still playing – and talk about what they don't like in porn. Are you gay if you don't like looking at penises? Jarrod has the answer.
Chris and Jarrod are back this week and giving their all. Not to the audience. But to Kellogg's and their delicious, filling, nutritious and very, very healthy and not at all fattening Oreo Pop-Tarts. (End of plug.) Chris explains how he used to eat Pop-Tarts and Jarrod isn't sure if he likes mashed potatoes. They've got some wedding talk and they bust out the impressions. Plus the UPS driver is back. One more time and he's on the payroll.
Chris got married on Friday and Jarrod survived the rehearsal, ceremony and reception. Now you're going to hear all about it. Chris has a problem with the semi-absentee planner on an expensive wedding for a marriage that "better last." Jarrod brings his dad cake and helps him clean the house. Plus they discover Eric Clapton is a racist.
Chris is getting married on Friday. More important, though: He might be getting Sirius for an entire year. Jarrod has him ready to go. They talk about Shark Tank and watch some Vines. Jarrod gets kicked out of the Goodwill store for a day -- because he's 12 -- and Chris predicts he'll be a big baby on his special day.
You've got to be 16 years old to get a driver's license in Pennsylvania. But no one ever said you had to be emotionally mature. Ride along with Jarrod while he plays The Jimmy Game and listen to Chris ruin a woman's life by spite-driving. Plus they discover the true winner of Madden football. Also, a friendly tip for the fans: If you plan on listening to Bush around middle-aged dads, wear protection. You'll be glad you did.
The boys are alone with their thoughts and you're gonna hear all of them. Chris and Jarrod brainstorm a Three's Company reimagining and an idea for an Al Pacino movie. Jarrod dreams of one day having his own gas station and Chris would be the most considerate wrestler to ever take his spot in the ring. Plus they get political. It's got everything Manny ... What's-His-Name wants.
Erick Sanchez and Rob Cibik return to the podcast to discuss their favorite fast-food places, gas stations and just how much child abuse is too much child abuse. Jarrod dives deep on pizza and knows where to find the best sushi. Erick got spit on by his friends, but it's all right because he had his weed-scented pencil. Rob saved a Chuckie doll from suffocating in a hot car. Chris' mom finds her national pastime and it's called abandonment and neglect.
The phone lines are open. For now. You people are weird, so it might not last much longer. Chris and Jarrod didn't feel like doing the work, so they put it on you. They had good reasons, though. Chris learned his booty is "looking so biiiiig" and Jarrod is been watching We Own This City and learning to offend a new region with an attempt at an accent. Plus he compares The Wire to the Andy Griffith Show. Take that, Baltimore.
Mike O'Donnell came to Phantom Power to talk wrestling, guns and the glitzy history of the military with Jarrod and Chris. Jarrod missed a murder on TikTok, but he knows all about Elvis Aaron Presley now. Mike's roommate and podcast co-host, Manny Santiago, lost a near-fatal bet about a cake. Chris is afraid of video games. But don't worry because Rob Riggle is going to protect them all.
Kyle Shahan joins Chris and Jarrod and the three of them talk about farming, French people and Pennsylvania Dutch. Jarrod unveils the test of true love -- and it involves a canoe. Chris believes women actually belong in the gaming community, ultimately jeopardizing his standing within the gaming community. Will this be the time Kyle's podcast episode finally airs? Are you reading this? Then yes, you idiot.
Did you ever wonder how tall Metallica is? Of course not. You've got better things to think about. That's why you've got Riffbusters. Does Simple Plan feel awkward singing "I'm Just a Kid" minutes after signing up for AARP membership? Who showed up at Jarrod's comedy show? Is Zach Braff really an asshole? Jarrod and Chris discuss.
Jarrod and Chris are back in person and at it again -- this time in song form. Is it Kenny Loggins? Is it Don Henley? Is it Jim Croce? Eh. Whatever. It really doesn't matter because we're exploring Chris' prostate in this one. They rename the cream pie and have a unique vision for the future.
Antonio is back with the guys and Chris teaches him all about aphantasia while Jarrod eats trail mix and waits for the noise to stop. Chris accuses Jarrod of having skinny privilege. Jarrod takes a hard stance against Target fashion and accuses Chris of having an affliction simply for attention. To be fair: Who gets lost in a Buffalo Wild Wings?
Antonio joins Jarrod and Chris from Arizona to talk about gaming and Taco Bell. Jarrod reveals the whitest Subway order of all time and they develop a new use for the pocket protector, specifically targeted for the fitness-challenged person. Plus the crying native American is Italian? The horror.
The guys are back and, well, they're pretty much the same. Is Madonna still sexy at 63? Why did Betty White die? Do you want to hear Hank Hill rap? How about we have a Mumford & Sons sing-along? The answer to all of these questions is yes. Especially the one about Betty White. All that and a hot tip on a new magazine.
