  • [encore] Phoebe Robinson
    Oct 9 2024

    This episode originally aired September 29, 2021.


    How do you get your man to say he loves you? Tig and comedian Phoebe Robinson team up to answer that question and find themselves at odds with an old-time advice columnist who thinks women should not go looking for love. Phoebe, who is also the host of her own Comedy Central series “Doing the Most with Phoebe Robinson” and of the podcast turned HBO special “Two Dope Queens” and Tig share a laugh over forgetting what they're talking about right in the middle of their conversation. And they have some fun advice for a listener with a cranky grandma and another one with a parrot interfering in his owner's love life.

I love the charm of this show.

I love the interview portion. but the question and answer sessions with the letters really pulls the real] erson out of the guest. Love you Tig. Keep doing what your doing.

They Nailed It!

Nicole Byer is unapologetically proud and gorgeous. She is an ebullient spirit! I love this episode because it nudges Tig out of her lane a tiny bit. Funny and sweet. One of my faves.

Who’s booking talent now?

Huge Tig fan and literally the only anything Tig I’ve had to stop before the end…. So monotonous and boring.
