Mightys, we have reached the end. After two years and 100 episodes of Might Have Help-ing, I’ve decided to bring the pod to an end. And you know what? I didn’t tell my guest Will Sasso! Why? Because he would have surely cried. Will is an old fr
This episode I got not one, but two guests who need no introduction. You know Patton from his legendary stand-up-that-led-to-other-insanely-cool-stuff career, and Meredith from her rise from child star to voice and screen actress and writer. Wh
Scott Wampler is a writer/podcaster/superfan-made-good who I first became aware of on Twitter, the best place to make friends in the world. A funny, self-effacing, yet scathing critic of cinema and fan of low art, the two of us hit it off immed
Lately, you might have heard of something called the Drop Challenge. People taking a sexy look towards the camera, then dropping to a “hot squat” (my term) slowly towards the ground. Heck, the cast of SNL did it recently. Well, it was created b
Jonah is an old friend from when I first moved to Los Angeles. I’ll never forget driving us both to a brutally shitty show WAY far away from where either of us lived. We both had good sets, mostly because the situation was so insane. For exampl
Brian Simpson is a comic I love/hate to follow at my home club, The Comedy Store. He’s deadpan, hilarious, writes great jokes, and is fearless in what he says. I’m MAYBE two or three of those things, so going up after him makes me work (always
If the bars of Eastern Los Angeles could talk, the tales they would tell of me and the two Kyles (Buchanan and Kinane). Kinane, as you might know, and I moved to LA from Chicago together. Back in the early 2000s, we bounced around drinking our
Beth Lapides gave a stage to pretty much any comic you’ve ever liked from the alt-comedy scene in Los Angeles. Patton Oswalt, Dana Gould, Janeane Garafalo, the list goes on and on. Her show Un-Cabaret was, and is, legendary for letting unique a
Ricky Velez is one of the funniest comedians out there, and he’s only, like, 32? He’s written on a ton of shows, is currently on a tour headlining all the best hard-for-a-comic-to-break-into comedy clubs, and most recently opened for Hasan Mina
We got another solo episode, Mightys. As the longtime listeners (Mightys, You) know, these pop up here and there because, well, they’re fun. Typically, I like to have a partner on to whack the ping-pong ball with, but occasionally I like to do
Lisa Tozzi is the Digital Editor for Rolling Stone magazine, former of Buzzfeed, and before that The New York Times. As I learned on the show, even she can’t believe it. Her first big story was the election of 2000. Remember that sh*tshow? She’
I call Billy a wild man because he’s got that crazy southerner look in his eye onstage, but he’s actually a down-to-earth normal guy who says crazy stuff onstage. I’m not sure when we met, but when we did we clicked right away. One reason I hav
Jason Shapiro is a comedy writer/performer who struck gold with a parody account of a fake day care in the hipster-affluent neighborhood of Los Feliz (Editor’s note: I live there lol). Google “Los Feliz Day Care” right now and find his twitter
River Butcher is one of the funniest comics out there today and an old friend. He’s also someone who, when I first met him, had a different name and a different pronoun. Hence the title of his new special “A Different Kind of Dude.” We’ve done
Laura Leigh Abby is a mom, wife, writer, TV personality and many other things. In fact, when we connected online I noticed a bunch of spin bikes behind her. She was recording from her fitness studio, of course! You might know her from her stint
Well, this is a first my Mightys. Typically I gotta scramble to get calls per episode. Partly because it’s hard to get people fans aware that they’re on an advice podcast and they can CALL THEM DIRECT, party because NO ONE MAKES PHONE CALLS ANY
You asked for it, you got it, Mightys. My brother, Uncle BBQ himself, joins me on This Might Help with Matt Braunger. Kyle and I started out together in Chicago, driving around in his massive Grand Marquis through the snow to bomb in front of c
Here it is, folks. The last episode of This Might Help of the year. I had to do it alone, just for you. All calls, write-ins, etc, answered entirely by me, your host and favorite dum-dum. This was surprisingly fun as all hell. Have a great holi
I didn’t know Ali before we recorded this episode, but now we’re tight as a drum. Not really, but boy did we bond over things, especially anxiety! Ali is probably best known for writing and producing The Morning Show on Apple +, but she’s about
First off, it’s pronounced Bow (as in “Bow down”)-wee, not like David Bowie. I gotta say that right off the bat because no one pronounces my name right either. Also, we’re both real actors, me and him. Lol! Actually, John is much more the real
Longtime traveling comedian lady Jackie Kashian is on the show this week and I couldn’t be happier. No one is nice, funnier, or more grateful for everything she has than Jackie. She’s one of those comics that every comic likes, and her mile-a-m
I have a massive amount of respect for anybody who makes a scripted podcast. The planning, the creative effort, and the execution can be brutal. There are a lot of them that I like, but Christian Duguay’s brilliant Valley Heat is one that I lov
I first became aware of young comic Jared Goldstein when (back in the dark ages of the lockdown) he and I were both on the same bill of a zoom comedy show. Not sure if you know, but they really sucked ass. However, he had a really good set, and
Chad Daniels aka Dad Chaniels has raised three kids and he’s around my age. Seriously. I’m just getting started, and he’s retired lol. Chad had ‘em young, and moved to a place he could afford to raise them (aka NOT NYC or LA). Long story short,
Will Miles is a comedian, friend, and drinking buddy of mine. We also both have daughters the exact same age, so we often have that “Can you believe this shit?” moment together. Recently we took our kids trick or treating for the first time, an
