Whether you're a dog gay, a cat gay, a snake gay, a ferret gay, or a will I ever find a lesbian who doesn't have a pet gay, animals likely play a role in your dating life. That's why this week our topic is Partners' Pets and we have actor, writer, and friend of Autostraddle's Brittani Nichols on to talk about her girlfriend's dog and her girlfriend's snake. We get into our histories with pets, our boundaries with partners' pets, and Brittani's assertion that animals, like people, have their own personalities and should be taken on a case-by-case basis. Christina also bravely says that people should not kill their pets and Drew bravely says that snakes are maybe a bit sexy thanks to a certain pop star. And before that we play another game connected to Drew's Letterboxd! Christina challenges me to Fix That Movie — pronounced Fix! That! Movie! — where Drew has to explain how she'd fix movies she gave two or two and a half star ratings on Letterboxd. Do you like pets? Do you like movies? Well, what are you waiting for!

Plus, Carolyn goes back and forth on her gayest thing, while Melody leans into her Connecticut origins.

If you’re like me, you’ve experienced that moment in the conversation when you can’t remember a word, even a simple word! A woman named Brittani Nichols recently shared her story. She called a restaurant to make a dinner reservation when her mind suddenly drew a blank on the word. So she asked to make a food appointment. Speaking of appointments, a man who was trying to schedule for a trim with his barber, couldn’t think of the word “appointment” and asked if there were any available hair cutting opportunities. Have you ever asked someone to bring you something and then forgot what it was you wanted? I think we’ve all used words like whoosiewagger, doodad, thingamabob, thingamajig, or you know… That thing in the closet. What’s a word for the inability to remember a word? Lethologica!

Despite the fact that they hate covering GG clip shows that repurpose old footage, that's EXACTLY what H. Alan and Kerri have done in this 2016 year-end wrap-up episode! Listen to them reminisce about all the times they casually mentioned bowel movements, raved about the girls' fashion, and argued over something really really stupid. With appearances from former guests like: Grace Helbig, Alaska Thunderfuck, Jake Hurwitz, Amir Blumenfeld, Satya Bhabha, Brittani Nichols, Sierra Santana, Margot Leitman, Adam Newman, Selena Coppock, Lauren Reeves, John Halbach, Kit Williamson, Chris Thayer, and Stan! Happy holidays, and we'll see you all in 2017. Stay Golden!

Hello babies! Are you ready to chase greatness? We are, no thanks to the buggy Duane “The Rock” Johnson iPhone alarm clock app! On today’s episode we give advice to a 29 year old virgin who is probably overthinking everything. If you listen to today’s Chunch Chat segment, you’ll learn that Martha Stewart still has three friendly miniature Sicilian donkeys. On Wiki of the Week, we touch on Sun Showers, which are an interesting meteorological phenomenon with remarkably similar folkloric names around the world. Most names involve references to tricky animals giving birth or the devil. Brittani Nichols joins us to talk about her Hamilton podcast, the appropriately titled Hamilton The Podcast. Kelly Kellerman preps us on the unbreakable rules of brunch. Maybe pour a mimosa before you start listening to this episode?

Conventionally attractive comedians Brittani Nichols & Ariana Lenarsky found out they live a block away from each other and did what anyone in their situation would do: ventured into the final uncharted territory of comedy and started a podcast about nothing.

Writer & Performer Brittani Nichols @bishilarious talks about her ColorCreative.Tv pilot 'Words With Girls', the necessity of creating one's own content & the blips of success in this wacky town. She and Amanda encourage LGBT actors to move out to Hollywood so that they can cast them in their productions!
This week's question: What’s it like to be you? This week's quote: “”I’m a fucking joy.” Do you know Brittani Nichols? Well, you’re about to. This conversation got real, fast. It’s also full of laughing. Hilarious realness, real hilariousness…your call.
