Intimacy Coordinator

Joel Kim Booster, Symone, Adam Shankman, and Guy Branum get into their types — and the harder problem of being someone else's. Guy explains why being attracted to him counts as a kink. Symone breaks down getting collected like Infinity Stones by men who only date Drag Race winners. Adam, talks about the gap between how he feels at work and how he feels everywhere else. Plus the katanas on every Chicago hookup's wall, Guy's lifelong pull toward redheads, and the exact movie that made each of them culturally gay.

Series premiere. Joel Kim Booster sits down with comedians and real-life best friends Alyssa Limperis, Evan Williams, and Kel Cripe to take apart the mental “checklist” of qualities we swear we need in a partner — and what happens to that list the second you actually fall for someone. They get into dating red flags, the code words couples use to defuse a fight, and how the relationships we grew up watching shaped what we think love is supposed to be. Plus, a listener question from a newly single party boy looking for a man who’s got his life together but still knows how to misbehave.

Please enjoy another of our favorite recent episodes while we move ever closer to unveiling the new thing we've been working on for you, stay tuned to this feed! This week, it's family time as host Joel Kim Booster sits down with his good friend, actor/comedian Brendan Scannell (Heathers, Bonding, newsletter The Abyss) to discuss maintaining a sense of self in your relationship, making friends later in life, being sober (or Bushwick sober as the case may be), knowing somebody in The Candy Hall Of Fame, and the real work of checking in with your partner. Plus, Brendan brings gifts! And Joel has some advice for single people, which is honestly not that different from his advice for anyone looking to get into entertainment.
