Are You Garbage? Comedy Podcast · Kevin Ryan & H. Foley

Strict Dress Code! w/ Kevin Ryan & H. Foley

·1 hr 15 min·10 clips
Kevin Ryan and H. Foley open with a road-tour push. They say the Back on the Block run is for the brand new year. Austin, Tampa, Chicago, Bloomington, Nashville, Pittsburgh, and Cleveland all get name-checked. The pitch is simple: come see the stand-up and bring your garbage questions. From there, the conversation slides into Shen Yun. They try to make sense of what the spectacle is supposed to be, and that turns into China-before-communism jokes and mutual confusion. A griffin becomes the next thing to argue about. Harry Potter gets blamed for the creature's image, and they bicker over whether the books or the movies deserve the credit. A new Star Wars ship unboxing enters the mix. The unboxing gets treated like an expensive mistake. The episode then moves into food talk. A Wagyu tasting is framed like the sort of purchase a guy should feel bad about. He also says he was embarrassed ordering it at the table. A jacket gets brought over, and he has to stand up and try it on. The baby gets folded into the food jokes too, with talk about whether the kid got any of what they were eating and how much gets wasted. That opens the door to Z-packs and some gastro-doctor stomach talk, with a prescription memory from years back and a casual attitude about all of it. The whole thing ends with another reminder to grab tickets and a quick sign-off.

As heard by us

Road dates and booth banter turn into a fast, funny class-vs-trash riff.

Kevin Ryan and H. Foley spend this one bouncing from the road into their usual trash-versus-class booth talk, and the Back on the Block tour gives them plenty to work with before the riffing takes over.
