What does it mean to be a sister? Is it different than having a sister? And where do brothers fit in? These are just some of the questions that we bravely tackle this week with sister and writer/star of the new play "It's My Sister" Casey Jane Ellison. Plus, we examine how people can be cool, whether we should be grateful for anything, and the rythyms of LA (or lack thereof). Everything in this episode IS canon so update your ledgers accordingly!

Happy Thanksgiving Glamour Girls, and also happy belated CANADIAN Thanksgiving, because today we're releasing our first ever Toronto live show, featuring superstars Ben Sosa-Wright, Sarah Hagi, and Nathan Hare!

"Acoustic Covers" w/ Tim Platt
Recorded two days after the election, this episode is raw, real, and occasionally incoherent in ways few other podcasts would dare to be. We're joined by our dear and delightful friend Tim Platt, whose debut comedy album Teeth Like Beak is now available on all platforms, to talk about a true straight classic: acoustic guitar covers. Was the guitar scene in the Barbie movie hack or revolutionary? Should Ben Folds be tried at the Hague? And finally: At what point does critiquing something by calling it straight lose its edge? When we say so, bitch.

"Theater" w/ Charlene Incarnate
Today we are joined by nightlife legend and general encyclopedia Charlene Incarnate to talk about theater. That's right, theater is straight. Before you get out your pitchforks and torches, maybe you should listen to some of her incredible points that are backed by peer-reviewed data. Plus, we talk about the types of gay guys who play tennis, the chastity play of living in New York City, and the waves of gay in pop music. This is an ep will show you what it means...to be memorable.

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.
