    And what do they talk about?! Everything, that’s what! Here’s a sneak peek:.


    Boys dreaming of being “supreme athletes” 🏀🏈🤸‍♂️ (spoiler: they were probably just really good at eating snacks and playing video games 🍕🎮).


    Manscaping secrets so savage, you’ll never look at grooming the same way again 🪒🧔🔥.


    The latest NSFW Diddy courtroom drama — because rap battles are so last century, now it’s legal battles and scandals! 🔥⚖️💃.


    Mark McGrath and the glory days of “Sugar Ray” — remember those jams? 🎤🎸🔥.


    Stephen also hits on the film Bedazzled starring Brendan Fraser and Elizabeth Hurley 🎥✨ — the hilarious, cheesy comedy about a man who makes a deal with the devil, and the wild, over-the-top consequences that follow. Classic Frasier and Hurley at their best, and Stephen’s got some hot takes about how that flick totally holds up or falls flat. 🍿🔥.


    Beanie Babies, Funhouses, and all that nostalgic cringe — because who doesn’t love a trip down weird memory lane? 🧸🎢🤪.


    Local comedy legends and the scoop on Nate Jackson’s Comedy Club 🎤🎙️ — the scene is hot, and the jokes are even hotter!.


    Talking kid’s TV shows like Harland Williams' Puppy Dog Pals, and the insane idea of starting a kids’ TV show like “Blippi,” but instead of educational, it’s just chaos in overalls and dirty diapers! 🎥🤡💩.


    Outrageous influences like Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson — because nothing gets the blood boiling like controversial takes with a side of LOL! 😂🤣🔥.

  • COMEDY SIMP PODCAST #046 - Express Lane w/ Corey Hill
    Jun 3 2025

    Welcome to Episode 46 of the Comedy Simp Podcast! 🎙️🤣Host and comedian Stephen Michael James is joined by open mic-er and Whiskey Mile regular, Corey Hill. 🚗🎤 This time, Stephen drags Corey along on his drive to Tacoma Comedy Club to test out the wild idea of doing a mobile podcast — because nothing says “professional” like recording on the road! 🛣️🎧.


    Get ready to meet Corey, a lifelong Washingtonian from Kirkland, WA, who’s seen some big names live and has stories to prove it. 🌲🎉 They chat about legendary comics (like Jeff Dye, Taylor Clark and Andrew Rivers), local radio icon Bob Rivers, Seattle bands that probably played your cousin’s high school prom, and debate whether being a musician or a comedian is the tougher gig. 🎸🎙️ Plus, they get into the juicy stuff—jokes about Corey’s nonexistent love life 😂💔 and some “advice” from Stephen about turning 40 and how women’s standards have changed faster than a Seattle rainstorm. 🌧️🧓.


    The highlight? A hilarious recap of a recent dog rescue benefit at Whiskey Mile. 🐶❤️ Stephen recently had to put his dog down, so he didn’t have a furry friend to showcase — unlike all the other comics who brought their adorable pups. 🐕 Instead, he played a video of his dog on the screen, but… technical difficulties with Geoff, the sound guy, turned it into a comedy of errors. 🎥🤦‍♂️ Stephen spills the tea on how his set went and whether the audience was more into dogs or his jokes. 🎤😂.


    This episode is packed with laughs, life lessons, and enough awkward moments to keep you entertained. Whether you’re a comedy nerd or just here for the life advice, you’ll find something to love. 🎉💬.
