Angie talks about her Kill Tony debut, the reaction to her jokes, and what it's like when a comedy set suddenly reaches a much bigger audience. Sara and Angie get into the art of Roast Battle, writing brutal roast jokes, and the challenge of following up a breakout performance.

Sara Weinshenk sits down with comedian Hanna Dickinson for a conversation about getting older, dating in your 30s, friendship, psychics, Hinge, New York City, motherhood, egg freezing, and the reality of trying to build a creative career. Hanna talks about moving from Los Angeles to New York, how friendships change as you get older, and what happens when your friends start getting married and having kids while you're still focused on comedy. Sara and Hanna also get into dating apps, meeting someone in real life, psychics predicting your future husband, tarot readings on TikTok, crystals, spells, and the strange ways we convince ourselves that a situation is going to work out. They also compare real life to Sex and the City, talk about being single in New York, the cost of living, getting older, cosmetic treatments, egg freezing, motherhood, dating men with kids, and the realities of pursuing a career in comedy. Plus: commercial auditions, rollerblading, expensive lattes, nannies, and why sometimes you just need a psychic to tell you everything is going to be okay.

Sara Weinshenk is moving to Texas after nearly 40 years in Los Angeles — and she's trying to figure out what the hell comes next. On this episode of SHENK, Sara and producer Lee talk about leaving LA, turning 40, aging, Texas culture, fashion, bizarre internet trends, mall nostalgia, Hot Dog on a Stick, raves for women over 40, Gen Z texting habits, baby voice in relationships, AI-generated onions, horse meat, and a bizarre Japanese sauna designed to recreate the experience of being inside the womb. Sara also explains why she turned down a nine-hour mime job, debates whether she'd rather eat horse meat or lab-grown meat, and discovers that Hot Dog on a Stick is apparently still alive. Plus: Rick Owens and Michelle Lamy, empty malls, sober daytime raves, "LOL" alternatives, relationship baby talk, AI slop, grocery-store energy testing, and the Tokyo "Mother" sauna experience. #SHENK #SaraWeinshenk #ComedyPodcast 🎙️ Subscribe for new episodes of SHENK every week. 👉 SUPPORT SARAH ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/saraweinshenk (Get bonus content and join the weekly live streams every Thursday at Noon PST!) 📱 FOLLOW SARA https://www.instagram.com/princessshenk/ New episodes of SHENK drop every Wednesday.

Sara Weinshenk is back on SHENK with returning guest Maddi Mays, and things immediately go off the rails. Sara and Maddi talk anime, Sailor Moon, Goku, Hamtaro and Maddi's daughter before getting deep into celebrity fashion, Shailene Woodley's controversial Emmys outfit, Aaron Rodgers, celebrity stylists and the question of whether an outfit can simply have too much going on. Then they turn their attention to Bethenny Frankel at Burning Man, celebrity culture, Burning Man fashion, social media algorithms and the increasingly strange world of internet celebrity. The conversation eventually gets into lip fillers, selfies, comedy, travel, race and pop culture before Maddi talks about bringing back her art podcast, Broken Crayons.

Sara Weinshenk sits down with Josh Potter for a very SHENK conversation that somehow goes from The Flintstones to sleep paralysis, celebrity guardian angels, Austin restaurants, hyperbaric chambers, dating disasters, family boundaries, veganism, blood types and the question nobody needed to ask: which human would be better to eat? Josh tells Sara about a terrifying sleep paralysis experience where he was being attacked in his bedroom, while Sara talks about a dream where Hayden Panettiere showed up with wings to save her. They also get into Josh's snoring, a possible deviated septum, and the strange things that happen when you sleep badly. Later, Sara recounts getting extremely high at a Michelin-star restaurant in Austin and realizing they forgot the cash for the tip. The conversation eventually spirals into dating, Thanksgiving invitations, parents knowing too much about your love life, veganism, human meat, mosquitoes and cow blood types.

Sara Weinshenk is back with another solo episode of SHENK, and this week she's trying to figure out why everyone is suddenly obsessed with pheromone maxing, Jellycats, weird sandwiches, nail polish names, and questionable internet gurus. Sara talks about losing her jewelry at the beach, men doing "female activities," discovering a suspiciously well-stocked guy's bathroom, and getting completely sucked into Hayden Panettiere's audiobook. Then things get weird with the TikTok dating trend of pheromone maxing and the idea that skipping showers somehow makes you more attractive. She also investigates Julia Roberts' bizarre favorite sandwich: peanut butter and jelly with sour cream and onion potato chips, imagines a Julia Roberts sandwich pop-up, names nail polish colors, reacts to Heidi Montag's "Matcha With You," and watches a very questionable spiritual healer named Gary Spivey. Plus: Jellycat couples, film festival people, dating, birth control, celebrity culture, Los Angeles, and Sara's ongoing realization that she may be seeing too much of herself in the people she judges. 🎙️ Subscribe for new episodes of SHENK every week. 👉 SUPPORT SARAH ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/saraweinshenk (Get bonus content and join the weekly live streams every Thursday at Noon PST!) 📱 FOLLOW SARA https://www.instagram.com/princessshenk/ New episodes of SHENK drop every Wednesday.

Ian Edwards is back on SHENK with Sara Weinshenk, and things immediately go off the rails. Sara and Ian talk about dating apps, Raya, bad first dates, expensive LA hangouts, Erewhon, Soho House, and why an Amazon wish list might be a serious red flag in a man. They also investigate the concept of the "Amazon Jolene," discuss Dolly Parton and the lyrics to "Jolene" and "I Will Always Love You," and debate whether Jolene is the ultimate relationship threat. The conversation eventually moves to getting older, working out for bone density, downtown LA, jury duty, and Sara's unforgettable experience losing a kidney stone in an Uber. Ian Edwards brings his sharp observations and dry perspective back to SHENK for another episode of comedians talking about dating, LA life, aging, relationships, and whatever else comes up.

Jessimae Peluso is back on SHENK with Sara Weinshenk, and this time they're talking about gray hairs, periods, astrology, food recalls, fishy eggs, haunted hotels, expensive travel, camping, tattoos, anxiety and preparing for the apocalypse. Sara and Jessimae get into the weird realities of getting older, why periods still feel like a monthly betrayal, and whether intuition is actually intuition or just anxiety. They also investigate the increasingly complicated world of eggs, including fishy yolks, pasture-raised chickens and Jessimae's hard-boiled egg peeling hack. Then things get appropriately unhinged: food recalls, Trader Joe's, seed collecting, growing sweet potatoes, surviving a collapse, expensive hotels, airport drinking, haunted hotels in Alaska and the strange experience of touring as a comedian. It's another episode of SHENK with Sara Weinshenk and comedian Jessimae Peluso.

Sara Weinshenk is back with comedian Harper-Rose Drummond for a completely unhinged episode of SHENK. Harper-Rose has stories about dating women, "soft launching monogamy," and why lesbian relationships might be more organized than straight ones. Then the conversation takes a hard turn into the internet rabbit hole involving Sam Altman, Grindr and a viral message thread, followed by a deep dive into the Lindsay Clancy case. Sara and Harper-Rose also debate pimple patches, billionaires, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, 90s lunchboxes, Skittles, food safety, lab-grown meat, porn, bad acting, plastic surgery and the time Harper-Rose literally lost a front tooth while eating rock candy. It's another episode of SHENK that goes absolutely everywhere. Follow SHENK and subscribe for more conversations with comedians, weird internet stories, dating stories, true crime rabbit holes and whatever else Sara Weinshenk can't stop talking about.

Sara Weinshenk is joined by SHENK producer Lee Nason for a chaotic solo episode covering everything from energy drinks and haunted dolls to airplane dance floors, movie-theater chili, AI privacy and Sara's deeply questionable ChatGPT history. Sara and Lee react to the story of a man allegedly losing his ability to walk after years of drinking energy drinks, discover that 1970s airplanes apparently had dance floors, and debate whether a 126-year-old doll is actually haunted. They also discuss the guy who brought a crock pot of chili into an IMAX and started selling bowls during the movie. Then things get increasingly personal as Sara looks through the bizarre questions she's asked ChatGPT, including health concerns, random facts, movie runtimes and whether yellow jackets are carnivorous. They also discuss AI chat privacy, leaked conversations, impulse spending, Amazon purchases, death and Kanye West's alleged bucket list. 🎙️ Subscribe for new episodes of SHENK every week. 👉 SUPPORT SARAH ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/saraweinshenk (Get bonus content and join the weekly live streams every Thursday at Noon PST!) 📱 FOLLOW SARA https://www.instagram.com/princessshenk/ New episodes of SHENK drop every Wednesday.

Comedian Gabby Lamb returns to SHENK with host Sara Weinshenk for an episode that goes everywhere. What starts as a conversation about Jellycats turns into debates about consumerism, environmental guilt, Disney adults, antidepressants, mental health, food recalls, travel, and Gabby's upcoming trip to Syria. Sara and Gabby riff through anxiety, stand-up comedy, medication, theme parks, Erewhon, social media algorithms, and why it's almost impossible to enjoy anything without overthinking it. It's equal parts hilarious, chaotic, and unexpectedly honest.
