StraightioLab is an intellectual podcast where smart comedians George Civeris and Sam Taggart unpack the rich, multi-colored tapestry of straight culture. In each episode, George and Sam are joined by a guest to hold a MIRROR to society and finally get to the BOTTOM of mysterious and perverse topics such as college fraternities, gender reveal parties, the military, themed restaurants, and the concept of "the holidays." Scared? Good.

Is going home a hostile act? This week we have Jo Sunday on to argue that it just may be! Plus, is it possible to not know who the Spice Girls are? Should everyone have guest beds in their house? And at what point does a new mom have to stop saying she's "new"? We think never!!!

"Going Home" w/ Jo Sunday

Hello, StraightioLab Listeners! We want to share a new show you might enjoy, Viva Betty: An Ugly Betty Rewatch Podcast! 
 
About the show: Ugly Betty was more than just a show - it was a revolution. Bold, heartfelt, and unapologetically real, it gave us characters that shattered stereotypes and told stories that mattered, putting a working-class Latino family, the immigrant experience, and LGBTQ+ stories front and center. 
 
Now, Ana Ortiz and Mark Indelicato—aka Hilda and Justin—are sitting down to rewatch the show that changed their lives and ours. With fresh eyes and zero filter, they’re revisiting every messy moment, iconic outfit, and groundbreaking storyline, one episode at a time.
 
This isn’t just a nostalgia trip. It’s a love letter to the show that made being different feel like a superpower. Pull up a chair, there’s room at the table for you!
 
Listen here and subscribe to Viva Betty: An Ugly Betty Rewatch on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts!

Viva Betty: An Ugly Betty Rewatch Podcast

This week's episode with Maggie Winters has everything. The model to schoolteacher pipeline. A government conspiracy about where all the new slang is REALLY coming from. And a public callout to the Nolita-based bagel place that nearly ruined George's big brunch. Plus, we discuss Burger King, the fast food restaurant with the lowest self-esteem. Believe in yourself, king!

"Deodorant" w/ Julio Torres

This week we are back in New York and joined by toast of the town Morgan Bassichis. After the run of their incredible show "Let Me Be Frank," we couldn't wait to have them on to promote the idea that the show is now over. We cover everything from what qualifies someone to be a therapist, the eroticism of the normal couple, and whether it's healthier to look at dicks or old photos of Kristin Davis all day long. All in all, we're just grateful that we've been given the space.

"Misery" w/ Morgan Bassichis

Kay Poyer has lived many lives — goth club regular, antique store worker, Substack diva — and it's all been leading to this: her debut on the gay podcast StraightioLab. We chat about the differences between straight and gay hookup culture, between millennials and Gen Z, between the internet and real life, and of course between people who are annoying and people who are normal!

"Hookup Culture" w/ Kay Poyer

New Season Starts Now! And we're kicking it off with a pillowy soft launch where George and Sam catch up on all the most pressing issues. Issues like: Are pop stars getting shorter? Is gay sluttiness supposed to stay in the closet? And do we need to create new clothes for men? Get ready to get DEEP into the psyche of two gay guys in horrible moods and kick off the new season with a commitment to truth (which is beauty btw).

Today we're joined by Stavros Halkias whose new movie "Let's Start A Cult" is out October 25th. We discuss the most groundbreaking topics from Greek stereotypes that are actually true for most people, Stavros' big sober year, and the politics of having a cold in the year 2024. Plus, we talk mancaves and wonder: would straight people rather build another room in their house instead of having a coversation? Many are saying yes!

Move over, Reese Witherspoon cause there's a new book club in town. That's right, we're kicking off the inaugural StraightioLab Book Club with Jo Firestone's new novel "Murder On Sex Island." We talk about what it means to write a book about sex that has no sex, how a very special "calendar style" edition came to be, and figure out how much of a book you can just riff. Plus, we find out if past lives are real.
