Emily Fleming’s Brass Knuckles, Jordan Morris’s Food Fears, Daniel’s Zagat Review

By Alison Rosen on March 29, 2023 in podcast, Uncategorized

Emily Fleming is here for the first time, fresh from working the door at what I’m pretty sure is a modern-day rave. No one gets my “exchange an egg” reference, not even Jordan Morris who is also here and doesn’t have big lunch energy (he’s a dinner dude). Daniel and I went to dinner the previous night and a perplexing thing kept happening and I need to talk about it. Was it because of the two tar-tares? Plus some Good Mythical Morning chat, self-defense, food fears and so much more.

Cool Girl Neck Parties, Joel Vs. Leo DiCaprio, Robin’s TV Trivia

By Alison Rosen on March 22, 2023 in podcast, Uncategorized

Joel Stein is here and I need to know what he meant by a certain comment he made when we took a photo together. Also he interviewed Leonardo DiCaprio and now ol’ LDC hates him and I need to know more about this. Robin is here and you can name any TV show and she pretty much knows everything about it. Also she’s attracted to P-22 (RIP). I too ran afoul of a member of the Hollywood Elite: Bam Margera. Also have you noticed cool girls are wearing tons of necklaces? Plus so much more.

Kerri Kenney-Silver (Encore)

By Alison Rosen on March 19, 2023 in podcast, Uncategorized

Owen joined me at the top to explain why you’re hearing this delightful throwback, which originally aired June 17, 2012 instead of the new episode I was planning. He even regales you with a song! Original description:

Kerri Kenney-Silver of MTV’s The State, Reno 911 and a zillion other things (Burning Love, Anger Management) stopped by this episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend to discuss the movie she just worked on, improv versus scripted acting, “tushie burps,” burps in general, Dustin’s balls, relationships, being a woman in comedy (and whether it’s something she thinks about often), a panel discussion about women and comedy where she and Alison met and little league parents. Also there was a burping demonstration, Just Me Or Everyone (click here to see the JMOEs we put on the screen), HGFY and more!

Renee’s Weird Ranch Life, Tod’s Tortoises, Beef Dunkies!

By Alison Rosen on March 15, 2023 in podcast, Uncategorized

Tod Perry is here in person and can you believe this is the first time we’re meeting in person after a year plus of hosting a podcast together? Renee Colvert is also here and she’s worried her new home-among-the-horses is going to make her become weird. I’m a little confused about railroad ties and tortoise excrement and I want to know if everyone’s childhood is littered with hard truths. Tony chimes in with something amazing. Plus some Vanderpump chatter confined to 90 seconds in new segment “V90X” plus a little more.

Peter Madrigal Speaks Out, Vanderpump Tea, Girls Who Squat

By Alison Rosen on March 8, 2023 in podcast

You guys, Peter Madrigal of Vanderpump Rules and Rob Shulte of Vanderpump Robs were scheduled on this group episode of my show BEFORE the crazy VPR news (#scandoval) broke which really worked out well for me and if you don’t know what we’re talking about, don’t worry, we break it down for those unfamiliar. Also joining us is Robin Shorr and she brought two pages of notes. Tony Thaxton is here and trying to follow along. We talk about Peter’s dates with Raquel, the role production played, whether Schwartz knew, who knew, Peter’s take on what everyone has wrong about the timeline, scrappy Scheana, Peter’s integrity, being portrayed incorrectly, platonic friendships, cheating, Raquel’s ring, Katie and Schwartz, Tom and Ariana and more. We also did a round of Just Me Or Everyone and HGFY, which got especially dramatic.
