Troy is a big time standup and content creator and he made me laugh so hard it hurt. We had never met and so I recently DMed him and he agreed to come talk. And talk we did! We got into our respective checkered pasts, the value of the art we both make, and the five years he spent getting punched by tourists for money. That’s all in here plus lots of laughs and relationship status updates. Come along for the wild ride.

I’m so excited to share the story of Sarah, another of my Patreon followers and a true inspiration. She tells me about how she got into drinking and weed at a young age, and how that snowballed into more extreme using until she was out of control. But better yet, she explains how she went from a desperate addict to an amazing mom and wife and person after she got sober. Sarah is so open and honest, it’s really incredible. And she hopes talking about her journey will help people out there with theirs. So come along for the laughs and the cringes and the ultimately inspiring story Sarah has to tell.

It’s summer break for the kids and that means one thing - no break for parents. I’m spending a little time today between frantically attempting to entertain my two children to hang out with OG YouTuber and all-around smart, funny, and amazing woman Grace Helbig. She’s been posting her videos since about 2008 and she knows the content game inside out. And like me, she sometimes ponders getting out altogether and moving to a cabin in the woods. Come find out if we make a pact to go full Into The Wild on this week’s Idiot.
