Andy and Jay talk about anger, falling down, therapy, neuropathy, parents, the power of singing, audio books, back aches, Quakers, the State of The Industry, the Thought Spiral podcast, Binghamton University, LSD, The Stump, and Moon Zappa's new book “Earth To Moon”, and running away from Jay Leno.Bio:  Andy Kindler currently recurs on Fox's hit animation, Bob's Burgers and Comedy Central's long-running Tosh.O.  He is also a regular on the critically praised Canadian web series, But I'm Chris Jericho (for which he was nominated as Best Supporting Actor by L.A. Webfest 2018).  Andy was the host of Season 4 and 5 of Hulu's standup series, Coming to the Stage as well as a series judge on the seventh season of NBC's Last Comic Standing, the star of two half-hour Comedy Central Presents specials and was a frequent guest and correspondent on The Late Show with David Letterman with over 40 appearances.  He has previously recurred on Everybody Loves Raymond, Showtime's I'm Dying Up Here, Disney's Wizards of Waverly Place, IFC's Maron and Comedy Central's The Daily Show.  Other noteworthy credits include Portlandia, the HBO Young Comedians Special, Dr. Katz: Professional Therapist, Home Movies and The Larry Sanders Show.  In July 2022, Andy became the first comedian to perform as a hologram, delivering his notorious State of the Industry Address from the relative safety of Van Nuys, CA. while appearing 3-dimensionally live at the Just for Laughs Festival in Montreal.

It's part one with Netflix's Fortune Feimster so get ready to laugh, cry, and clutch your coffee cups because the iconic comic joins us in the Beverly Hills boutique for a hilariously heartfelt time. From sipping “Armenian cocaine” (ahem, coffee) to unpacking childhood traumas, closet contents, and even literal chandeliers, this is a warm hug wrapped in flannel and served with a side of sass. We kick things off with a classic mix-up: Fortune calls her coffee “Turkish,” and Pol's Armenian soul is (jokingly) scandalized. That leads us into a conversation about identity, culture, and the funny politics of naming things—like calling Turkey “Former Armenia.” You'll laugh, you'll learn, you'll wonder why Google hasn't updated its maps yet. Fortune shares how she's been making us laugh since 2005—nearly 20 years of comedy gold. She dives into her early influences, growing up in North Carolina as a self-proclaimed tomboy in a world of debutante balls, parasols, and frilly dresses. With a girly-girl mom and two older brothers, Fortune navigated expectations while finding her voice—eventually turning those awkward moments into stand-up magic. Spoiler: her childhood closet was *not* runway ready. We trace her comedy roots from a $50 gig at a lesbian bar (by the stripper pole, naturally) to her breakout on *Last Comic Standing* and four-year writing stint on *Chelsea Lately*. Her Netflix specials followed, catapulting her from comedy clubs to global fame—and yes, the stripper pole is long behind her. As the episode unfolds, we peel back even more layers of Fortune's journey. We learn that her birth name is Emily, but “Fortune”—her great-grandmother's maiden name—was her grandmother's gift and the name that truly resonated with her. The name change becomes a powerful tribute to the woman who gave her unconditional love and confidence. Then things get even more *undressed*. Pol' performs a signature cup reading for Fortune and delivers a spiritually spooky revelation: a small antique chandelier, packed away in her garage, is the key to finally grounding herself in her new home. Turns out, the chandelier once belonged to her beloved grandmother—proof that sometimes, emotional light fixtures hold the answers. We wrap with reflections on unexpected life pivots, family reconciliation, and even a surprise moment where Fortune sings *“Ironic”* live on stage with none other than Alanis Morissette. (Yes, really.) From red carpets with Anna Nicole Smith to voicing cartoon characters and starring in hit series, Fortune's done it all—on her own terms and with a heart full of humor. This is *Fortune Feimster*, fully undressed: the stand-up star, the Southern girl with a flannel soul, and the chandelier keeper ready to shine. This is another Hurrdat Media Production.

Alonzo Bodden is one of the hardest-working and funniest working standup comics on the touring circuit today. He won Season 3 of NBC's Last Comic Standing; he has four standup specials so far; he's a regular panelist on NPR's Wait, Wait… Don't Tell Me!; he's played a bouncer or a security guard in countless movies and TV shows; and he even voiced monsters on the Power Rangers. He's been around. But before he had anything to do with show business, Alonzo was an aircraft mechanic who got a job working for Lockheed Martin on the F-117 Nighthawk stealth bomber – one of the most advanced top secret aircraft in the world – when he graduated from Aviation High School in New York. At 18, he moved to Los Angeles, started making a lot of money, found himself in the throes of addiction, and wound up in jail. The sound of the cell door slamming shut was his turning point. In this episode, Alonzo shares details about his New York upbringing, his battle with addiction, his path to sobriety (36 years ago!), and how it all led him to find his calling: comedy. He also shares the one hilarious joke he told at the 1997 Montreal Just for Laughs festival that immediately transformed him from a guy who did standup comedy to fully realized comic. You won't want to miss it. Wherever you live, Alonzo will be in a town near you sooner or later and seeing him live should be high on your priority list. Find him at www.alonzobodden.com.

A comedian and magician who headlined Cirque du Soleil's Mad Apple, has been featured on America's Got Talent, Last Comic Standing, Conan, Sherri, Comedy Central's This Week at the Comedy Cellar and National Geographic Channel's Brain Games. Harrison was a senior producer for Primetime: Would You Fall for That? and story producer for VH1's This is HOT 97. He was also the head writer for Tu Nite con Lorenzo Parro, the first late night show on NBCU/Telemundo, a staff writer for Tha God's Honest Truth with Charlamagne Tha God on Comedy Central, and a long-time freelance writer for MAD Magazine. He is a recipient of the Andy Kaufman Award (2010) for creativity and originality in comedy, the Shorty Award in collaboration with Comedy Central and the New York Comedy Festival for "Best Emerging Comic" (2011), and the Magners Comic Stand-Off (2011).

He co-founded the Harvard College Stand-Up Comic Society, the first organization at Harvard dedicated to the performance and appreciation of stand-up comedy, and one still popular on campus today.
