As you may know, discovering Taskmaster last year after Mantzoukas was on saved our sanity as America plunged straight into the sewer, and on today's episode, we're talking to one of our favorite contestants, Desiree Burch! Desiree is, of course, so much more than a Taskmaster series 12 contestant - she's a stand-up (who, if you live in the UK, you can see on tour in February!), the host of Netflix's Too Hot to Handle and BBC 2's Live at the Apollo; she appears on tons of panel shows and so much more! And on today's episode, we get all into how she moved to the UK for a relaysh (but not the relaysh the internet seems to think she moved for... what?!), achieving your dreams in a foreign country, how that relationship fizzled, walking your cat on a leash, the power of the mid-life crisis and TONS MORE! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions! If you'd like to ask your own advice questions, call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM or just DM us on IG or Twitter!

Andy's latest essay that he mentions in the intro can be found here! Also, we're in culture critic and Vulture writer Sean Malin's book The Podcast Pantheon: 101 Podcasts That Changed How We Listen!

We've known Jean Grae from the New York comedy scene forever - and she was even on the live version of Couples Therapy back in the pre-pandemic times - and now that her new fantastic book In My Remaining years is out, we just had to have her back on the show! Now maybe you too know Jean from her book, from doing comedy stuff, especially with John Hodgman, from her days as a rapper, when she was genuinely one of the best to ever pick up a mic, or from tons of other stuff! But even if this is your first time meeting Jean, you're gonna fall in love! We talk about her later-in-life neurodivergent epiphany, dating and dealing with narcissists, how perimenopause is different from Perry Mason, the correct way to have a revenge fantasy and SO MUCH MORE! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions! If you'd like to ask your own advice questions, call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM or just DM us on IG or Twitter!

Jameela Jamil is back for a killer crossover! We were recently guests on her show Wrongs Turns, where we told embarrassing stories from our past, and now Jameela joins us to further delve into her romantic and therapeutic life! Last time she was on, LA was burning, and we spent the majority of the conversation looking out the window just in case things got inferno-y. But the fires are over and everything in the world is good now. Ahem. Anyway, we get into it with Jameela about the wide gulf between her public persona and how she feels inside about herself. We talk meeting her bf James Blake, the songs he writes about her and again, how his version of her clashes with her own self-image. We talk about not wanting to be perceived and how a nice paycheck and a little dissociation can overcome those feelings, and of course, we talk dental hygiene! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions! If you'd like to ask your own advice questions, call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM or just DM us on IG or Twitter!

It's 2026! Yikes! The start of the new year! And as is tradition in the Couples Therapy household, we begin with an episode of JUST US! Recorded on Sunday evening, we're delivering Night Vibes to your ears as we dig into some listener comments and updates from previous question-askers, as well as discuss how our New Year's Eve went in Los Angeles while it was raining cats and dogs and every other darn animal in Noah's Ark. PLUS, we're answering YOUR advice questions, from the serious to the sprightly! Questions about where to sit at a stand-up show, what to do with a friend that has some serious problems, and MORE! If you'd like to ask your own advice questions (ESPECIALLY FOR THE UPCOMING 400TH EPISODE!), call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM, drop us an e-mail or voice note at [email protected] or just DM us on IG!
