  • The Naked Truth...Almost.
    2026/10/15
    Pardon our appearance! Our podcast set is under construction, hence the plain black background. So WHY did we wear black shirts?! We look like two washed-out floating heads, but trust us, the show is anything but dull! Erik kicks things off by turning Producer Claire into James Lipton from Inside the Actors Studio, complete with a sexy British accent! She fires off his famous questions, including “What’s your favorite curse word?” and “What do you want to hear when you arrive in heaven?” The answers take us down some WILD rabbit holes, including a high school prom date with a GLASS EYE! Then Erik nearly loses his lunch when Claire and Laura start discussing lady parts. And just when you think things can’t get more uncomfortable, we play a mini version of “Sh*t Happens,” rating outrageously awful scenarios from 1 to 100 on the horribleness scale. It’s gross, awkward, thought-provoking, and absolutely hilarious! Hopefully, we’ll have our fabulous new backdrop finished by next week. Fingers crossed! 🤞 🎭 LAST CALL! Get your tickets to Begin Again at The Old Globe before it closes Sunday, October 18th! Use promo code LCAD to waive handling fees. GO SEE THIS SHOW! Thanks for hanging with us, even when we look like floating heads in a black hole!

  • A Soap Opera Life
    2026/10/13
    Drama BEFORE we even hit record?!
    Oh, you have NO idea! Something major went down just minutes before the podcast started, and Laura spills as much as she can without getting herself into even MORE trouble! And speaking of trouble, Laura’s high school reunion had it ALL: an apology, an injury, a mortifying moment, and a downright DIS! But hey, it was great seeing everyone! Erik brings the heat with a juicy Double D Showbiz Report, including a WILD Selma Blair incident, something you MUST watch, and something you can absolutely skip! This episode is awkward, captivating, hilarious, and just a little unhinged. We laugh through the chaos, and hopefully you will too!

  • Reunions and Rear-Ends, Oh My.
    2026/09/30
    Laura’s headed to her HIGH SCHOOL REUNION this weekend—and she’s going back to school in style. Her best guy friend, Aaron Garrity, calls in with hilarious memories… and casually drops the news that he’s sharing her hotel room, too. What could go wrong? Don't worry, Aaron is pure gold. Laura is the issue. Luckily, it’s Aaron: entrepreneur, powerhouse businessman, longtime friend—and, as you’ll hear, a voice that sounds like it should’ve sold millions of albums. Seriously, who IS this guy?! Get to know the fascinating Aaron at AaronGarrity.com⁠. Then Erik takes a sentimental stroll down memory lane and somehow drives it straight into… his bowels. Yep, the colonoscopy happened. And because it’s Erik, OF COURSE there were complications. We get the full report. Possibly more report than anyone needed. Plus, Erik delivers a special Thursday edition of Double D Showbiz News, including Laura’s scoop on the one thing seemingly every star in Hollywood has—and trust us, you do NOT want it. Reunions, roomies, rear ends, and Hollywood ridiculousness. Just another perfectly normal episode of Laura Cain After Dark. Thanks for loving and listening—and

  • The Last Gift Won an Emmy!
    2026/09/29
    Bring the tissues for this one. ❤️

    We sit down with the incredible people behind the now Emmy-winning short documentary “The Last Gift: Jim’s Courage, Our Hope”—a beautiful, heartbreaking, and deeply inspiring story about one man’s extraordinary final gift to HIV research. (The Last Gift Study⁠)

    We talk about Jim’s legacy, the remarkable strides being made in HIV/AIDS treatment and cure research, and the humanity behind the science. And THEN…director Ryan Neisz actually let us hold the Emmy! 🏆 This conversation is heavy. It’s hopeful. It’s beautiful. And that Emmy could not represent a more deserving story. Thank you to everyone involved for trusting us with your time and Jim’s story. Watch and learn more at TheLastGiftMovie.com⁠. Bring the tissues. And you know what?

  • Backyard Runaway
    2026/09/26
    Is Laura a full-blown weirdo, or is she actually onto something brilliant? You be the judge. Erik has another run-in with customer service at a major company—and this time, he goes full top tier. Then, after the terrible helicopter accident in L.A., we share what life as a chopper photog is really like. One of us even flew the very next morning. Yes, really. We close with a tribute to our dear friends Pam and Jerry Cesak of Rancho Coastal Humane Society. This was the first time we’d spent most of a show together since Jerry left us. We love them both, and we hope you love this episode.

  • Meet Our New Psychic…AI!
    2026/09/22
    We let AI take a deep dive into our psyches, and apparently we’ve found our new psychic. It gets weird. It gets freaking awkward. The tension is so thick Producer Claire can’t even look at us. Secrets come out, a few nerves get hit, and our souls are pretty much cut wide open for everyone to hear. AI is so spot on, we’re almost afraid to post this episode.

    Thank goodness Erik brings us back to earth with an extra juicy dose of Double D Showbiz News. This one is off the charts.

    Don’t miss it.

    Love, your podcast!

  • Our Movie Star Listener!
    2026/09/19
    Meet Noam Ash—actor, writer, producer and one of the most captivating humans we’ve ever had on the show. His outstanding new film, Bookends, is earning praise on the festival circuit and stars Noam alongside Academy Award winner F. Murray Abraham.

    Noam opens up about being Jewish, being gay and working twice as hard to be seen and heard in an industry that doesn’t always make room. His struggles, his steadfast morals and the values he brings to both the set and his life make him truly stand out. He’s humble, honest, wildly talented—and even if you don’t know his name yet, you will.

    And get this: after Erik followed Noam after a screening of Bookends…and revealed that Laura Cain After Dark is one of the few podcasts he regularly listens to! OMG—we have a celebrity member of the podcast family!

    Wrapped around this glorious interview is all the chaos, funny weirdness, and inappropriate nonsense you’ve come to expect from us. So raise a glass—of sparkling water, obviously—to Noam, to Bookends, and to all of you outstanding humans. Trust us: this is one episode you do not want to miss.

  • Our Celebrity Enounter!
    2026/09/15
    Laura meets the lead singer of Train—and immediately asks the dumbest question possible. His response? Even better. We also rave about the musical Begin Again, hear about Erik’s unexpected “Saint Francis of Assisi” moment with a dying animal, and serve up a healthy dose of Double D Showbiz News—including what to watch and what to skip. Then we end with Disturbed Friends, the game that reveals just how deeply unwell we all are.
