Hey y'all! Joe here. — I'm back after five years and this episode is a messy, funny look at being totally in over your head. I chat with comedian/former teacher Aaron Monte about kindergarten “Hennessy” dances, middle-school chaos, getting carted off in an ambulance, and even getting fired from what felt like a dream job.

Stay away, Craigslist! That's what Alex Oliver learned after unknowingly scamming college girls out of salon memberships and selling baseball cards to a sketchy stranger four hours away, all so he could pay a month's rent. Thankfully he didn't die, but he did have his one and only breakdown in the process. Originally aired May 16, 2018.

Comedian Lil Hart didn't get a DUI, she got a DU FLY. She talks with Joe about getting arrested on a flight pre-takeoff for being drunk and the aftermath that followed. She also talks about growing up with spina bifida, a disease that stunted her growth and could have left her in a wheelchair. Thankfully she's healthy, happy and hiking these days but it wasn't easy.

7th grade was a whirlwind for comedian Brandon Black. He had his first kiss, which ended badly. He and his family also moved from inner-city Los Angeles 80 miles away to the suburbs. Brandon laughs with Joe as he recalls multiple early breakups in his life, adapting to suburban life, their love of Taco Bell and why neither of them had a girlfriend in high school.
