The 53-year-old Ital-Chicago native has spent decades turning the everyday absurdities of family, relationships, and human behavior into observational comedy, going from waiting tables for years to honing his craft at The Comedy Store (which he still does) to becoming one of the biggest touring comedians in the country. He joins us to break down his growing SiriusXM podcast universe, including his latest monthly interview series “We Got Company,” while reflecting on joke building, and whether he’s slowly turning into his dad. He also talks about Robert De Niro wanting to spend time with his father while making ‘About My Father,’ getting notes from his dad and how seriously he takes raising grounded kids.We also give Sebastian a crash course in current slang and looksmaxxing, which leads us into his own physical glow-up, skincare and very specific shower routine. Plus: aging jokes, brushing your teeth in the shower, Zach and Dan’s dental habits, Dan’s inability to hold eye contact, carving pumpkins with Justin Bieber, Robby Hoffman, Dane Cook, his need to share his thoughts with complete strangers and Marcello Hernandez impersonating Sebastian in an ‘SNL’ sketch with Harry Styles.SUBSCRIBE to Our Podcast ►►https://tinyurl.com/48yfe4v5SUBSCRIBE to YT ►►https://tinyurl.com/5n8km55u See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Waterparks’ Awsten Knight is back on the show — at this point, we’ve genuinely lost count of how many times he’s been here — but this time he’s joining us to talk about the band’s new album 'JINX.'Three years in the making, Awsten breaks down the themes behind the record, from existential dread and losing father figures to talking to his inner child and why creativity, for him, is so rooted in that younger version of himself. He also gets into rebuilding the Waterparks team, taking their live shows back to more intimate rooms and collaborating with Blink-182’s Mark Hoppus thanks to an assist from Dillon Francis.Predictably the conversation winds up unpredictable. Awsten talks skincare, scoring video games, why making 'JINX' was “better than therapy,” DeuxMoi making it onto the album and whether Austin is actually a good kisser. We also get into his suspiciously soft feet and aloe socks, Otto’s abs, Zach, Dan and Awsten’s sleeping habits, his paranormal obsession, homemade Ouija boards and EMF readers — before Awsten pitches a sleepover.See Waterparks on tour ►►https://tinyurl.com/8phumemkSUBSCRIBE to Our Podcast ►►https://tinyurl.com/48yfe4v5SUBSCRIBE to YT ►►https://tinyurl.com/5n8km55u See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Freya Skye is back! We first had her in back in 2025 alongside the cast of ‘ZOMBIES 4: Dawn of the Vampires,’ and this time the British singer and actress joins us solo to talk about her latest single ‘Bad Taste’ — bad taste in romantic partners, that is, and finding her identity outside of Disney. She gets into establishing her aesthetic, why she doesn’t think she’s cool, busking at 12, Junior Eurovision, the challenges of the Descendants/Zombies: Worlds Collide Tour tour, and her connection with Alex Warren and the hugely supportive parents who helped her chase her dreams from an early age.Freya also talks about the 40 songs she’s already made for her upcoming album, working with Julia Michaels and her love of Noah Kahan and Taylor Swift.

Bella Poarch returns for the second time and this time the US Navy veteran turned social media star turned pop powerhouse joins us to dig into her long-awaited debut album ‘Picnic at the Cemetery.’ An incredible visual artist and world-builder, Bella explains how the Filipino tradition of celebrating All Saints’ Day inspired the record, why cemeteries have always felt safe to her and the origin of the Bigheads — characters born partly from the imaginary friends who helped her through a childhood of bullying and abuse. She also opens up about depression, abandonment, maladaptive daydreaming (and what that is), and how writing ‘Ribcage’ made her realize the 20-plus songs she already had weren’t telling her full truth, ultimately changing the direction of the entire album.Bella takes us inside songs including ‘Stay Gone,’ ‘Garden,’ ‘Tooth,’ ‘Nice to Meet Ya’ and ‘My Heaven Is Alone,’ reflecting on relationships, infidelity, and her experience in a military psychiatric ward, as well as the deeply personal story behind her angel wings and ship tattoos. A note before you watch — these tattoos are connected to her lowest point, when she came close to taking her own life. We also get into her taking control and becoming a producer, working with Lucas Sim and Melanie Martinez, her ‘Wednesday’ covers, deleting ‘M to the B,’ writing a Bigheads storybook, her cats Pee Pee, Wee Wee and Doo Doo, why her best ideas come in the bathroom and, crucially, when we’re finally going to teach Bella how to ride a bike.Stream 'Picnic at the Cemetery' ►►https://tinyurl.com/yn5fwxvhSUBSCRIBE to Our Podcast ►►https://tinyurl.com/48yfe4v5SUBSCRIBE to YT ►►https://tinyurl.com/5n8km55u See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Tove Lo is back! One of our favorite return guests joins us to talk about her sixth album, ‘Estrus,’ out September 18, and the twisty four-year road that led her there. She breaks down the meaning behind the title — a female animal being “in heat” and why this resonates for her — and gets into writing the record in a tiny fishing village in Sweden, her Swedish versus LA selves, diving headfirst into dance music with SG Lewis and her DJ crew Ladies of Leisure.Tove also gets into what it’s like writing about love nine years into a relationship and contemplating motherhood. Are situationships harder to get over than relationships? And what’s up with her exes resurfacing whenever she releases new music — a phenom she addresses in “The Bad One.” Plus, we get into everything from her childhood detective alter ego Bianca Glitter Rose to working with Lisa and Rosalía, her relationship with mentor Max Martin, her stubbornness around ‘Habits (Stay High),’ why she prefers keeping the behind-the-scenes process behind the scenes, and whether she’s finally learned how to drive.Pre Order "Estrus" ►►https://tinyurl.com/55vvewjmSUBSCRIBE to Our Podcast ►►https://tinyurl.com/48yfe4v5SUBSCRIBE to YT ►►https://tinyurl.com/5n8km55u See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

21-year-old Japanese-Canadian actress Miku Martineau joins us to talk about her two very different Netflix worlds: returning as Yumeko in Season 2 of ‘Bet’ and starring as Teagan in ‘Crew Girl.’ She breaks down how she approached a character with existing manga lore versus building Teagan from the ground up, the surprising similarities between the two, going blonde for ‘Crew Girl,’ learning to row, doing her own stunts and what her gymnastics and Muay Thai background brings to the job. Plus, she teases ‘Bet’ Season 2 — which wrapped filming this summer — working with Saweetie, dives into the Yumekira fandom and weighs in on the messy Teagan-Josh-Cam love triangle.Miku also takes us back to growing up in Toronto, her parents’ restaurant, getting a scholarship to study film and TV acting in New York at 12 and landing an agent at 13 — despite once being told her braces would stop her from getting roles. We talk Japanese-Canadian representation, K-pop dance classes, hockey, volleyball, cast friendships, and her cat Brick. Would she date another actor? You’ll have to watch to find out. Oh, and she clears up one persistent internet rumor: her dad does not work as a voice director.

In this wide-ranging convo she reflects on growing up on-screen, auditioning as the real work, and why acting is, inherently, a little embarrassing.Joey also gets into her longtime ‘Practical Magic’ fandom, working with Nicole and Sandy, the sisterhood at the heart of the movie, casting spells on set and midnight margaritas with her legendary co-stars. Plus, she talks texting with Nicole for life advice (as well as interrupting Nic and Zac Efron’s onscreen tryst in ‘A Family Affair,’ while almost choking on a grape), shaving her head and growing it back (and shaving it again and again), working with Christopher Nolan, learning from Patricia Arquette, her marriage to director Steven Piet, her bestie Sabrina Carpenter, being haunted on the set of ‘The Conjuring,’ and her ICONIC, shoulda-been-award-winning role as Gypsy Rose Blanchard — plus so much more!SUBSCRIBE to Our Podcast ►►https://tinyurl.com/48yfe4v5SUBSCRIBE to YT ►►https://tinyurl.com/5n8km55u See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Medium Build, aka 35-year-old Nick Carpenter, joins us to talk about his new album 'King of Having Fun' and the evolution that brought him here. What starts off as a chat about his gold tooth winds up as a wide-ranging, earnest, honest, and very funny conversation covering his evangelical upbringing in Georgia, his hedonistic years in Anchorage, Alaska, his time in Nashville, his breakthrough 2024 album 'Country,' and some of the songs on his latest LP, including 'Perceived,' 'Feed the Boys' and 'Thank You, Cook.' Nick also gets into his complicated relationship with attention and acclaim, opens up about why he drank and his sobriety, and speaks candidly about the complicated line between embracing his queerness and feeling like he’s commodifying it, and so much more.
