A comedy survival podcast about the disasters you fear, the chaos you don’t expect, and the daily hassles that make you wish you were dead. Hosts Danielle Koenig and Kristine Kimmel break down everything from natural disasters to unnatural medical scares to wild animals you don’t want to encounter- plus guest stories you truly won’t believe. If it can endanger your life—or simply ruin your day—they’ll tell you how to survive it, with plenty of laughs along the way.
Featuring guests like Rainn Wilson, Jon Hamm, Tig Notaro, Patton Oswalt, Oscar Nunez, Lauren Ash, Paul F. Tompkins & Andy Richter.
This week, Danielle and Kristine learn how to survive fire ants — itching! swelling! sweating! And that was just us in the studio. Then Paul F. Tompkins (The Great North, Comedy Bang Bang) joins to share a hilarious story about getting fired from one of his earliest jobs, obviously told with his trademark wit and incredible charm.
