  • Episode 238 - Matt Koff
    May 5 2026

    On today's episode, I have Emmy winning writer and comedian, Matt Koff!

    Matt's new standup special, "Cat Man", comes out May 15th, and I had the opportunity to watch the special ahead of this episode and I absolutely loved it! From life as a cat guy, relationships, writing in television, and the worst party Matt has ever been to, this special is excellent!

    I talked with Matt about getting his start in comedy, working and interning for The Onion, writing for The Newlywed Game, making his way to The Daily Show, his new special "Cat Man" and so much more.

    A huge thank you to Matt Koff for taking the time to join me on the show today. Make sure to go watch "Cat Man" on May 15th, and follow Matt on all of the links at www.onthemicpodcast.com

    Thanks, Matt!

    Enjoy the episode.

  • Episode 237 - Caleb Zeringue
    May 1 2026

    On today's episode of the podcast I have comedian Caleb Zeringue!

    I first became aware of Caleb from his play "Luigi: The Musical", and have continued to see his standup clips pop up online. So when his publicists asked if I wanted to have him on the show to talk about his new show, "The Drillmaster", which he co-wrote with Jenny Zigrino, I was excited to have him join me.

    I talked with Caleb about growing up in the South and finding his comedic voice, using comedy as therapy through a divorce, queer representation in comedy, Luigi: The Musical, how The Drillmaster was created and so much more!

    Don't miss the LIVE reading of "The Drillmaster", the mostly true story of America's gayest founding daddy, this Sunday, May 3rd @ The Elysian Theater here in Los Angeles during the Netflix is a joke fest. Tickets are going fast, so get them while you can! Ticket links as well as all the places you can follow Caleb at available at www.onthemicpodcast.com

    Thanks, Caleb!

  • Episode 236 - LIVE from WonderCon w/ Alex Watson, Matty Cardarople, Janine Hogan from DEMONETIZE
    Apr 6 2026

    We're back! FINALLY! And what better way to kick off the first episode of 2026 than with a LIVE episode from WonderCon! In perfect Con fashion, this episode has some audio issues. Our apologies. But the show must go on!

    For this year's WonderCon show I decided to bring not only my dear friend and director of Demonetize, Alex Watson, but a few of our cast members as well! We were thrilled to have Matty Cardarople and Janine Hogan join us for this year's episode.

    Our film Demonetize is about to have it's World Premiere at Panic Fest in Kansas City on April 12th, and we thought it would be great to showcase a little more of the film.

    We talked about how the film and the cast came together, favorite moments on set, ghost hunting the set (which was haunted), letting the actors improvise, and Matty shows everybody why he's the best podcast guest ever.

    Thank you for those of you the joined us in Anaheim! I'm always so grateful for those of you that stick around for our show. Thank you to WonderCon for having us back once again. A huge thanks to Alex, Matty, and Janine for taking the time to join me as well. And an extra special thanks to Vanella Drake and Chris Dotson who luckily filmed the episode so it wasn't entirely lost.

    Enjoy the episode!
