| 10/9/25 | #51 Lesbians, Open Mics, and the Youth Sports Industrial Complex | Sometimes getting back on stage leads to unexpected connections.

| 9/18/25 | #48 Sexual Positions at Work, and Why Your Journals Might Traumatize Your Kids | I try a CIA-style trick to make people spill without asking a single question (and immediately botch it on my kid). I answer five actually-good questions so you can decide if you like me or have had enough. We get honest about journals as future family landmines, mushrooms/Zen and not caring what you think, the first laugh that ruined me at age six, and whether everyone’s quietly miserable (ask their spouse). Also: cocktail party questions that’ll get you uninvited, the gym’s… ambitious leggi... | 23m 35s | ||||||
| 9/11/25 | #47 Bradley Cooper Humbled Me + TRT Side Effects (Yes, Titties) | I rewatched A Star Is Born and had to eat my words: for years I thought “I could’ve played those roles,” then Cooper drops a triple-threat and I’m like—nope. We get into why acting drunk is hard, Vince Vaughn worship, and my delusional Hangover-era confidence. Meanwhile, a frank TRT update: more energy, weird cravings, and yes—titties. DIM, white mushrooms, carrot salad, Florida peptides, headaches, and how “not giving a f*ck” can quietly torpedo your life if you let it. Also: Trader ... | 34m 43s | ||||||
| 9/4/25 | #46 From Hero to Zero | In this episode, David returns stone-cold sober and shares stories about parenting his wonderfully unfiltered son. From YouTube 'facts' and Jersey Mike's obsessions to the challenges of raising kids in the digital age, David explores the delicate balance of maintaining honest relationships with children while trying not to completely lose your mind. Plus, a masterclass in why Jersey Mike's employees probably have incredible right arms. https://www.instagram.com/startingstandup https://www.ins... | 15m 12s | ||||||

| 6/12/25 | #34 Drug Use for Grownups | David tracks the messy evolution of his act, from joking about kratom and morphine drips to nearly launching a debate show on illicit substances. Along the way he revisits a live “Armchair Expert” set that almost tempted Dax Shepard off the wagon, questions why certain highs are illegal, and brainstorms a future lineup that jumps from psychedelics to tennis and gambling.

David Walton takes us on a hilarious journey through the social currency of Z Cavariccis—those ridiculously baggy pants with multiple belt loops that somehow signaled coolness in the 90s—and draws parallels to watching his own children navigate the treacherous waters of adolescence today. With raw honesty and self-deprecating humor, David explores the delicate balance between supporting kids through i... | 18m 56s | ||||||
