| 7/30/26 |  Estee Adoram: The Gatekeeper of Funny | Estee Adoram is a comedy legend. You've never seen her on a stage, but every comedian you love has had to earn her approval. This week, Trevor, Eugene, and Dave sit down with the legendary talent booker of New York City’s famous Comedy Cellar to talk about her four decades discovering comedic talent. Together, they discuss what it takes to spot greatness before anyone else, how the Cellar has maintained its singular reputation, the evolution of stand-up, the line between comedy and a soapbox, and which rising comedians have her attention today. | — | ||||||
| 7/23/26 | Asma Khan: More Than My Food | This week, famed chef and author Asma Khan joins Trevor and Eugene for a conversation that shreds traditional fine-dining elitism to pieces. The trio discusses Asma’s upbringing in India, the frustration of over-complicated modern technology, and how she discovered her passion for cooking through pure homesickness after moving to England. Between tales of hitting cheating childhood friends with cricket bats and surviving Cambridge’s soul-crushingly bad food, Asma gets real about how food is truly about identity, storytelling, and dismantling imperialist garbage. | — | ||||||

| 6/16/26 | WORLD CUP Bonus Episode: First Week | Less than one week in, the 2026 FIFA World Cup is already delivering surprises. Trevor and his football frenemy Joe Opio discuss Germany's 7-1 rout of Curaçao, whether Mexico beat South Africa or South Africa lost to Mexico and why those aren't the same thing, and a statement win from the US against Paraguay. They also dive into the ways football is borrowing from basketball, hand out some early flowers (and a few early critiques), and try to figure out what we've actually learned from a tournament that seems determined to keep everyone guessing. | — | ||||||
