We’re back for another balcony session, welcoming STAND UP COMEDIAN AMIR K!!! **HEADS UP!! This episode has some tension from both sides. We decided to share because this is a real moment captured between 2 people who love each other. Rick and Amir have a 10+ year friendship, and in this episode you'll not only witness the goofs, but also some of the tensions -- As I'm sure you'll relate, this is what it's REALLY like between two humans. You'll see by the end, these two really have such strong love and admiration for one another as friends and as comedians. TYSO keeps proving that comedians often have a particular knack for not taking confrontation personally (watch The Tony Hinchcliffe episode for confirmation). Outside of the little bit of combative conversation, Rick and Amir discuss some pretty interesting topics to do with finding your career as a comedian. Amir details getting started at open mics and why his method of persistent stand up works for him. The Boys discuss their first meeting and how it makes Rick feel good to retell, hard work paying off, not being passed at The Comedy Store, and how the last 4 years have changed them.

Next up another TYSO first timer (so we don’t blame her for forgetting socks), actress Sosie Bacon! Rick met Sosie last year when they shot their Amazon pilot together. WHICH just got picked up to series!! (https://deadline.com/2020/06/jason-katims-israel-on-the-spectrum-series-amazon-1202959498/) She joins us on the balcony, which even doubles as a toilet (to Rick’s moms disdain) and learns to get comfortable being uncomfortable. Sosie reflects on her acting ambitions and how her parents, Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick, played a part in her decision to start her career at 21, as well as leaving Brown University. Sosie gets to intimately know our TYSO goblin (or does she?) and Rick does what he does best, by pushing his guests to explain and open up about the things they didn’t know they needed to unpack. They discuss being on set with autistic cast members, how it differs from typical filming projects, and how they use communication tools, both in professional and personal relationships.

Hi Goblin Family, A few of our episodes were filmed before the protests and overall global civil-unrest took place. We felt it necessary to let you know, as it is not discussed during this chat. All ad revenue from this episode will be given to the Black Lives Matters global network (https://blacklivesmatter.com). For more information on mutual aid resources, please visit: https://docs.google.com/document/u/1/d/12y7-Wa4gi8HUeFTv17gPcbMGuVX5cqIudLJmhOrq1-k/mobilebasic With that we welcome Mike Catherwood! A much needed guest due to his willingness to both climb onto the balcony but also get into nitty gritty conversations about life and career. Mike started in radio at 22 and has since gone on to co-host LOVELINE with Dr Drew, as well as his own radio shows at KROQ-FM on Kevin and Bean, and now his podcast MIKE LIKES YOU. He’s not only a “cool guy” he’s also incredibly generous and kind in his conversation with Rick about bombing, growing in your art, and navigating insecurities. he Boys discuss their first meeting (nakedness is of course involved), leaning into being good enough, and hits and misses in the industry. We know you guys have enjoyed these more conversation dense episodes and we think this one in particular is an exceptional version of that. Mike, what a guy… a cool… hot bodied guy.

Welcome back Goblins! And a Big Balcony Bopper welcome to the lovely SONA MOVSESIAN. (Rick’s still struggling to pronounce her surname) She’s not only Conan’s O’Briens right-hand woman, but also Co-Host of the podcast Conan Needs a Friend. Rick and Sona met when the Late Night Show and Undateable were on adjacent stages on the Warner Brother's lot years ago, and have remained firm friends. They discuss Rick getting less annoying, Sona Being A national Speech Champion, and how to navigate disagreements. We hear about the whole “I was kicked off a basketball team” saga in detail and manage to get Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip to chime in with some words of wisdom! Rick also recounts ALL his school crushes and the epic fails of teenage love while Sona accidentally digs up a childhood rift she thought she’d buried. This is a really good one guys! We hope we’re bringing a little bit of fun and laughter to a heavy few weeks and appreciate the support of subscribers and particularly Patreon Patron’s. We’re putting more content up there including BTS clips and guest announcements. We love the interactions with you all.

You may remember our next guest from "I Feel Pretty" alongside Amy Schumer, "The House" with Amy Poehler and Will Ferrell, and most recently, both creating and star of "ROBBIE" on YouTube's Comedy Central. He’s a stand-up comedian, actor and all around great human… LETS HEAR A BIG (GLOVED) APPLAUSE AND (MASKED) CHEERS FOR RORY SCOVEL! Rory’s first time as a bopper, and he didn’t even have to take off his shoes! Or Bane-esque mask for that matter. Rick orchestrates the huge undertaking of the Rory-From-the-Car episode, so ignore the joggers and the general traffic noise because the boys get analytical about comedy and break down their views on audiences, stand up, and self awareness. You’ll even get a glimpse of some unseen jokes from Rorys new special .. not really but he is coerced on the spot to do some covid topical jokes- cue laugh track. We know this is an episode goblins and boppers have been waiting for, and Rick had a blast doing it… despite the 38 hours to clean the equipment.

Get ready for the episode you didn’t know you were waiting for! BRENT MORIN, fellow podcaster, actor, stand up comedian and one of Rick’s best friends joins TYSO (again) for a real life, albeit socially distanced, podcast episode! We like to call these the ‘Balcony Series’ as Rick's managed to find a novel way to circumvent his pandemic OCD fears and allow guests to come on over (sort of). It may not have been the most elegant of entrances, but Brent managed (in the youtube version, watch Brent climb up to the second story balcony), with a little goblin assistance, to get back into the Shoe’s Off studio (Rick’s living room) or near enough! They get into their history of filming bits and sketches when they first started out in LA, deep rooted hair concerns, auditioning, and hilarious typecasting. If you loved Brent’s Christmas episode but felt like you needed twice as much sweating, self deprecation, and life risking commitments to bits- this is the episode for you. Let us know in the comments who else should whether the climb of the balcony for future quarantine episodes?!?! Rick’s also appearing on the WHISKEY GINGER PODCAST with Andrew Santino this week (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-aZ7C1afqY&t=3511s) and will be on Bertcast with Bert Kreischer this Friday too, so keep and eye out for that!

Julia Gargano never sang professionally, auditioned for this season's American Idol. Made it through Hollywood Week, Hawaii's live shows, and into the top 20. That's were it gets interesting -- all finalists are performing from home -- recording on 3 iPhones, live to tens-of-millions of people. Rick and Julia get into the American Idol process, from auditioning to producers, forgetting the name of her own song, gaining confidence, setting up a live studio in her bedroom, and yes... more cartoon penises. Sorry new American Idol fans -- but TYSO has a voice, and it's a proud voice. As of Sunday, May 10th, Julia is now one of the FINAL 7!!

It’s week whatever-the-hell of quarantine, and this time we’re getting a bit of an ensemble crew together. Not only do we have COMEDIAN/CLAIRVOYANT THOMAS DALE, but also Betty and some titillating ghost guests - emphasis on the tit. So... I guess, TITillating. Thomas returns not only for jokes and reminiscing, but also to give a psychic reading to Rick’s girlfriend, Betty, all the way in London! He predicts the future, sorts our her pillow situation, and manages to get Rick reprimanded by an old lady ghost. After the reading, Rick challenges Thomas’ views and maths.The two wrestle with the idea of spirituality and why Rick's dreaming of donuts... or wedding rings…or maybe bagels… probably donuts... Betty hopes its wedding rings…its most definitely donuts. Whether you’re a sceptic or a believer, you’ll come for the intrigue and stay for the ghost nudity.
