Please Enjoy the New, Decidedly Non-COVID-19 Focused Podcast “Confronting Demons with Megan Stalter”

April 1, 2020
News
comedy podcasts, forever dog, megan stalter

While a good deal of new podcasts right now are first hand accounts of millennials being stuck inside, there are still plenty of other podcasts that would rather offer you a brief mental vacation to other places with other people that really have nothing to do with what’s going on right now with the global COVID-19 pandemic.

One of those new podcasts, oddly enough, is called Confronting Demons with Megan Stalter. Though the title suggests some sort of aggro-self help show with a plethora of very special guests or live callers. Stalter turns that format on its head by playing to her strengths of being playfully confrontational. Whether to guests that “never agreed” to come on (including Chris Gethard and Chelsea Peretti) to her brother Nick, Stalter has quite the knack for toeing the line of lashing out in the most hysterical way possible.

In general, Stalter is such a wild, fun burst of energy on stage and you can feel it in how rambunctious this podcast is. No matter where she goes, she keeps guests (no matter how “in on it” they are) on their toes and Confronting Demons ends ups being anything but that (which we’re thankful for as that’s all of what we’ve been all doing being stuck wherever you are in isolation).

Give a listen and have a grand ol’ time with Confronting Demons with Megan Stalter from Forever Dog, available wherever you listen to podcasts.

National Lampoon Radio Hour Is Getting Rebooted with Cole Escola and Jo Firestone as Some of Its First Cast Members

National Lampoon Radio Hour Is Getting Rebooted with Cole Escola and Jo Firestone as Some of Its First Cast Members

The new National Lampoon has a lot of very fascinating things in the works (as well as taking on a new, fresh direction with renowned comedy brand that is more forward looking in 2019 and onwards). This revival of the National Lampoon Radio Hour, one of National Lampoon’s original milestones, is one such project in the works that we’re very excited about.

The announcement of Cole Escola and Jo Firestone as the first cast members (of which there will be more) has us even more hyped as Cole and Jo are particularly brilliant when it comes to playing characters and thinking outside of the box.

We’re not exactly sure what the new variety sketch radio show will be like, but we have a sneaking suspicion that it might be absurd and wonderful when it comes out.

As we’re diving into the inevitable madness of the 2020 election cycle, the one and only James Adomian and his fantastic podcast, The Underculture will bring a much needed Election Clusterf*ck where James and his absolute favorite performers will do their much better version of the recent primary debates with James, of course, reprising his masterful impression of Senator Bernie Sanders.

Just the idea of trying to fit all of the candidates onto one stage as opposed to splitting them up to two nights should be worth the price of admission! 

The Election Clusterf*ck with James Adomian & Friends is set to happen next week, Sat. Aug. 17th at 10PM at Dynasty Typewriter. Tickets are $15 now and $20 on the day of. Please go get tickets here.

Kevin McDonald (Kids in the Hall) and his delightfully meta podcast Kevin McDonald’s Kevin McDonald Show is doing another live taping at the Lyric Hyperion Theatre & Cafe on July 8th at 8PM.

The show always features sketches, sketches within sketches, music, Kevin interviewing guests, and other treats for those in attendance. 

We’re pretty sure this will sell out, so go your tickets for $10 right quick.

Don Fanelli’s acclaimed podcast, The Need to Fail, is coming up on its 100th episode and, to mark the occasion, will be taping a humdinger of a live ep. at Lyric Hyperion this Friday with two, count ‘em, two stellar guests, Casey Wilson and Bobby Moynihan.

Of course, the podcast follows closely to the title as Fanelli’s guests share the the low points in the career, their failures that preceded the plethora of success they currently have. Without a doubt, you’ll want to hear what Wilson and Moynihan went through to get where they are now.

Tickets are $10 and you can (and should) get them here.

Forever Dog’s Got an Impressive Podcast Slate Now with 11 Bright and Shiny, New Podcasts

Already, you’ve heard us heap praises on James Adomian’s The Underculture, which is only one of the new 11 podcasts at Forever Dog as part of a newly minted partnership with the revamped National Lampoon.

Just announced today are podcasts from the marvelous likes of Sabrina Jalees (The Goodie Goodie), Anna Drezen (Scary Stories to Tell on the Pod), rapper Big Dipper (Sloppy Seconds), drag star Miss Peppermint (It’s a Mess), and more that will have a comedic take on pop culture, sexuality, dark pasts of celebrities, happiness, and even scary stories. 

As far as we can see here, this line-up (which really expands their previously lacking West Coast reach) now pushes Forever Dog further up the podcast network ladder next to Earwolf, Headgum, Starburns Audio, and All Things Comedy.

James Adomian kicked off his podcast The Underculture today, making a singular home for his vast repertoire of characters (with room for guests and their respective characters as well). 

The first ep. gives a spirited start to The Underculture with Adomian as Chris Matthews and Alyssa Limperis as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez going toe-to-toe, then a philosophical, but fun chat afterwards sans impressions. Already, we’re looking forward to visiting Adomian’s neighborhood of all his spot-on impressions every week (there’s bonus content via Patreon too).

Get on board (or, I guess, go underground because of the name) and subscribe to The Underculture. 

James Adomian to Launch His Own Podcast The Underculture This Week

If you are a comedy podcast fan, the chances that you’ve enjoy James Adomian’s characters and voices are very high. Between Comedy Bang! Bang!, Chapo Trap House, and a plethora of other shows, Adomian has been part of some of the best bits of comedy podcasting ever for several years.

So, it stands to reason that Adomian should have his very own podcast where he can do his characters and feature his personal favorite comedians with their characters and otherwise.

That time has finally come as The Underculture, which is such a podcast as described, is set to premiere on Forever Dog this Thurs. May 9th. Get a taste with a trailer here, then go ahead and subscribe like you know you want to.
