You know him, you love him, TV writer and podcast superstar and host of I Said No Gifts! is back, that's right, it's Bridger Winegar! But wait, who else is on the show? Why to celebrate the holidays, we've got some very special episodes this week and next because, folks, IT'S A COUPLES CHRISTMAS! And in addition to Bridger, we have his wonderful significant other Jimmy Smagula, Broadway star and host of his own podcast Baby Mouth! Jimmy has "a brash personality" as Bridger says, so we need to delve into how he won Bridger's quiet heart.

If you like DRA-ma, we have quite the episode for you today with LaLa Ri! LaLa is a dancer, performer and *former* drag queen who was on RuPaul's Drag Race season 13 and Drag Race All Stars season eight, and the *former* part is where it gets interesting. A mere 24 hours before sitting down with LaLa, he announced his retirement from drag, so we *have* to delve into that. What it means to no longer practice the art that brought you notoriety, the disorienting nature of fame, and also being in a long distance relaysh with someone in... Pittsburgh?!? And so much more, including Andy making 900 references to 1980s pop stars! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions!

We were fans of Tamberla's from such shows as The Good Fight and Bosch and of course, she was in our favorite film of 2023, They Cloned Tyrone, so we were psyched to sit down with her while she was on a whirlwind press tour for her new show Brilliant Minds on NBC/Peacock (along with a certain Ms. Naomi's show St. Denis Medical!), and buddy, do we get into it! Tamberla and her husband have been together for a long, long time, and we find out the story of how they went from friends to lovers against the backdrop of the Chicago theater scene and how a, uh, let's say, "stalker-type" individual inserted himself in the burgeoning relaysh... and MUCH, MUCH MORE!

With NBC's St. Denis Medical tearing up the charts *and* our hearts, we had to have Wendi back on the show. Even if your girl Naomi wasn't writing for the show, you know we love us some Wendi and would watch what is FOR SURE the best new sitcom out there! (And why not check out her co-star Mekki on a previous episode???) Now, of course you also know Wendi from Reno 911!, Bridesmaids, The Goldbergs and tons of other stuff, but on today's episode, we get in deep about her therapeutic breakthroughs, love of attention, her religious upbringing and a surprise cameo by a cat with a present. And SO MUCH MORE! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions!

Matt's an old pal, and he's been on the show a bunch of times both on his own and with Bowen, and especially last time, we did the "Couples Therapy thing", so this time, we thought we'd ask Matt about the two years since his last appearance. Now Matt's been having what we'll call "An Ascent", but Matt tells us it doesn't feel like that from the inside. Color us intrigued! We spend a lot of time discussing what it feels like when your self-image has to catch up to your public persona, how this affects your romantic life and so much more. Matt's genuinely the best, and you HAVE to catch him on his Prince of Christmas tour this December AND watch him on the new Netflix show No Good Deed starting December 12th! And of course, listen to Las Culturistas! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions!

We kind of knew *of* Allison before sitting down with her on today's episode, but we didn't *know* Allison and boy oh boy are we glad we got to because she's the bee's knees! Now, you all probably know of Allison Raskin from her YouTube channel Just Between Us with her comedy partner Gabe Dunn (with whom she's also written several books) or from her two great books Over-Thinking About You and her latest I Do (I Think)! But even if this is your first time meeting her, strap in for some fun and sage advice! Allison walks us through how a devastating break-up led to her meeting her husband, how dealing with mental health issues since childhood has affected her romantic life, some science behind what's actually helpful in therapy and SO MUCH MORE!
