Daniel and Alison (Your Calls, Alison’s Striptease, Recent Firings)

By Alison Rosen on January 8, 2023 in podcast, Uncategorized

Am I taking the easy way out by doing these episode with Daniel or is this what the people demand? Also why do you look a non-gift horse in the mouth? Plus your calls, celebrities’ less attractive siblings, why my coat is a giant middle finger to Marie Kondo, whether any robe is acceptable to Daniel, more love for the Quantz Method of sweater hanging, setting your phone to dark mode, a zippy discussion of the recent Adam Carolla Show firings and more. But not much more.

Eye Language, Nog Thoughts, T’Zone Update (Encore)

By Alison Rosen on December 28, 2022 in podcast, Uncategorized

With all the nog talk lately I wanted to revisit one of my favorite episodes with one of my favorite guest combos. Original description: A rare Thursday show treat! Paul Rust and Michael Cassady are here on the eve of their new Don’t Stop Or We’ll Die release Diamond Skies Over Western Dreams. Tone Zone Thaxton played drums on it so it’s like we have a whole band in the studio. What do you do when you have a whole band in your studio? You talk about egg nog! And eye language, Brooklyn and more. Also Daniel and I are back from Hawaii and I learned some things. Plus we do a round of Just Me Or Everyone and get a Tony Update and so much more.

Alison’s Chocolate Nap, Jordan’s War on Eggs, Tone Zone’s Xmas Quiz

By Alison Rosen on December 21, 2022 in podcast, Uncategorized

Jordan Morris is here and he’s anti-egg. He claims he isn’t but I know better. There are more winged creatures in my studio and Daniel’s here to save the day. How are we all feeling as we barrel into Christmas? Plus I’m considering adding a robe to the pandemic uniform I’m still rocking and I experience a nap that’s also a personal low. Plus iconic infomercials and important B.O. talk!

Brian Posehn

By Alison Rosen on December 18, 2022 in podcast, Uncategorized

Can you believe actor, comic, writer and podcast host Brian Posehn has never been on my show? I can’t either. We finally caught up to talk about his new special Posehna Non Grata, having an extreme growth spurt when he was 18, egg nog, starting standup, sitcom sets that were welcoming vs ones that weren’t, his experience with the late Kirstie Alley, Mr. Show, his two dogs, new music, fatherhood and more. We also took your questions and did a round of Just Me Or Everyone and HGFY.

Tinsel Tossing, Carnal Mushroomers, Giant Wheels of Cheese

By Alison Rosen on December 14, 2022 in podcast, Uncategorized

Dalton Castle has returned to the show to share how it feels to lose a championship belt on TV and also, according to RJ City who is also here, to forget to bring one to a match between the two of them a long time ago. Also if you were hoping Dalton had an update about the astronaut-adjacent guy who is trying to steal his wife, you’ll just have to listen. RJ takes issue with the way I apply tinsel to trees and I have some questions about a casual reference he makes to psychedelics. Once again I am thinking I should have business cards and once again I’m surrounded by people who lack vision. Daniel was pursued by carnal mushroomers and we realize that Dalton and RJ are archetypes. Which are you? Plus more egg nog discussion and Owen’s new interest in giant wheels of cheese.

Daniel and Alison (Your Calls and Alison’s Tears)

By Alison Rosen on December 11, 2022 in podcast, Uncategorized

After an arduous chunk of time trying to get everything set up for video, a process I find extremely annoying, Daniel and I sit down to record a show and I begin crying in the first eight minutes. I have never done this. It wasn’t really about the video. Also we took your calls about made-up games and egg nog. A shocking number of you are anti-nog and while I am shocked Daniel is shocked with a capital SH. I think he’s angry. And disappointed. I force him to play something called “The Rhyming Game,” and also we talk about our recent Disneyland outing. Plus more including a deep dive debrief of the dating stuff on this week’s Thursday show since someone said Daniel was an “angel” for sitting through that and I needed to know how he truly felt about it. Plus more!

Alison’s Mortifying Emails, Life After Late Night, Two Toilet Rich

By Alison Rosen on December 7, 2022 in podcast, Uncategorized

Josh Gondelman is here and he’s still plagued by this pernicious cocaine rumor. Daniel Quantz isn’t helping matters. Also joining us is Miles Kahn who used to work at The Daily Show and then Samantha Bee and not only is he the person responsible for bringing Jenna Kim Jones to the show but also he once cut my hair on air and went on a couple casual dates with me years ago. We dig into our sordid history including a reading of some emails and it’s extremely mortifying. Miles comes off fine. Plus Big Al, being rich enough to have two toilets, talking yourself into going to an event only to regret the effort, intellectual property, landlords, and more.
