Stupid Comedy Stuff is the podcast version of the noise in my noggin. In short, bimonthly episodes, I share my thoughts on comedic subjects ranging from the role of women in standup to my first experience with the catalogue of Pauly Shore. (Watching all the film-age!)

I'm finally back with a new episode, and I'm here to talk about the 2008 comedy "Role Models," and its amazing director, David Wain. He has a new movie out called "Gail Daughtery and the Celebrity Sex Pass," and since he's giving me countless hours of free entertainment, I figured I'd give him a free promo. 

Please enjoy my little book report on this delightful film and a short biography of the man who made it.

In this episode, I discuss Kevin Smith's fan-service classic, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. And on 4/20, because of course. As a kid in high school, I went through a big View Askewniverse phase, treating his movies almost like stoner-Shakespeare. I was a hopelessly uncool dork with almost no social life to speak of, but in Smith's sharply written world, I got to feel strangely adult. 

Here, we'll look into accusations of homophobia against the film and director; the story of how Jason Mewes was touched by an angel; and take a peak at the director who inspired Smith to get started in the first place.

Like the kids in the movie, I'm venturing out to uncharted waters -- I'm just wearing more clothing while doing it. (With one glaring exception... you'll have to listen to find out!) I'm a podcasting greenhorn, so the audio quality is about as good as Scottie's relationship with Fiona. Regardless, if you wanna check out a cheeky movie recap, and get some wild facts along the way, then welcome aboard. We're taking a deep-dive in the history of the movie, the inspiration behind it, and figuring out exactly what the deal was with that French robot.

Welcome to "Stupid Comedy Stuff," a podcast hosted by me, Emma Kat. I'm a writer and comedian living in Austin, TX, and I've been obsessed with comedy for as long as I can remember. (I blame Adam Sandler). I used to be a comedy journalist, but now I'm launching this podcast to give me an outlet for waxing and rhapsodizing and other $10 words that really just mean "talking without a script."
