Couples Therapy

Edy Modica was so fun on the first season of Jury Duty, so when we saw she was promoting her debut stand-up special I'm Just Like You (And It Sucks) (Now on YouTube!), we said we gotta talk to her! Edy joins us to talk about how some things in her childhood shaped her love of chaos, how her therapist was *too* positive, wanting every moment to be A Moment, her boyfriend's good boundaries, how meds helped with some obsessive tendencies, what a charcuterie board reveals about Edy's emotional state and SO MUCH MORE!

The woman who practically raised Naomi with her comedy, Aisha Tyler, is on the show today, and it was WONDERFUL! Now you know Aisha from a million things: Criminal Minds: Evolution, Friends, Whose Line Is It Anyway?, Talk Soup, Archer and so much more! And on today's episode we dig into her psyche and try to figure out where her positive attitude towards life comes from. Growing up in San Francisco, maybe? We'll find out! We also talk about her childhood as a nerdy outcast, how her positivity functions in a romantic relationship, learning "man shit" from her dad, the dangers of having someone clean your house, and of course, as always, we talk about rubbing a walnut on a wood floor scratch!

It's the second part of the What Went Wrong crossover extravaganza! Last week, we were guests on the fantastic podcast What Went Wrong discussing Hollywood couples that had some odd energy, and this week the hosts Chris Winterbauer and Lizzie Bassett join us as we put their friendship and emotions under the ol' Couples Therapy microscope! We discuss the decision to start a podcast with your best friend's wife (who is also your friend), the decision to have children, the emotional toll of the fires last year, the emotional toll of making a movie, secret darknesses, Chris' Jack Donaghy-like mind vise, Lizzie seeing Cabaret too many times as a child and SO MUCH MORE!

The algorithm gifted hemlocke springs to us, and thus we praise the algorithm! While we give a youthful appearance, in truth, we here at Couples Therapy HQ are nearly two centuries old and shut ins, so we rely on the algorithm to introduce us to new things, and we are thankful that it sluiced Hems' music into our feed because she is FANTASTIC! Maybe you've seen her live (she's on tour this fall supporting MUNA) or maybe you've heard her EP Going...Going...Gone! or debut album The Apple Tree Under the Sea? Well, no matter how much you know about Hems, you're gonna fall in love with her on today's ep! We talk reading smut, Hems teaches us about everything from Wattpad to feeling wheels, we discuss being too busy to date, getting therapized through TikTok, and of course, we ask, is America just a country-sized rage room?

For the first time, husbands Joel Kim and John-Michael Booster are podcast guesting together, and baby, we get INTO IT! Now, you know Joel from his many appearances on this show, from TV shows like Loot and the first season of the Scrubs legacyquel, from the film he wrote and starred in Fire Island, his Netflix special Psychosexual and so much more! Well, now you get to meet his husband, video game designer John-Michael! John Michael works for Riot Games, the makers of League of Legends, so we have a real 2IPC here (Oh, you don't know the acronym I just made up, "Two Industry Power Couple"???). Anyway, on today's episode JK and JM talk about how they met coming out of lockdown in the early part of the pandemic, having a big wedding, making friends and enemies at Burning Man, integrating friend groups, radical honesty and SO MUCH MORE!
