Are We Gonna Do This?

·39 min·2 clips

A comic convinces a room that he and Jen are “brother and sister,” then kisses her in front of everyone.

1. Jillin Off’s “Are We Gonna Do This?” centers on Christmas parties, breakup logistics, and subscription annoyances. 2. Christina Walkinshaw and Jen Murphy host the episode, and Christina brings the breakup and travel updates while Jen drives the party-story jokes. 3. The episode asks what happens when a flirtation at a party gets a follow-up text and whether the moment is already over. 4. Christina starts with a Christmas edition check-in, says she is fresh back from Maui and Costa Rica, and describes a beach with the “right” amount of wave power. 5. Jen talks about haggling off a cruise ship for a three-stop tour that cost $30 and included shopping, a jungle, a plantation, bananas, monkeys, and a beach. 6. The hosts spend time on ALS beer, with Christina naming Joanna Downey, a Toronto comedian who died of ALS, and saying the cause matters to her. 7. Christina says she has to tell her parents that Sheffy is no longer her boyfriend, after her father already knew through John. 8. Jen compares the situation to Emily Henry’s novel Happy Place, saying the book’s family-event breakup premise suddenly felt familiar. 9. Jen recalls a DUI from years ago and quotes her stepdad saying her brothers got wedding money, while her money went to a lawyer. 10. The two joke that the DUI story could become a stage bit, and Christina says the line is “comedy gold.” 11. Christina describes her mother suggesting she and Allie, her stepsister, live in a house together, which Christina heard as a sign she might never marry. 12. The show shifts into a long party-dating discussion when Jen asks what to do after flirting with someone at the Hollywood Improv Christmas party. 13. Christina clarifies that the person texting “are we gonna do this” is someone she has known for years but who never actually asked her out. 14. Jen says she was in such “party mode” that she felt “a little bit of a penis from outside the pants,” then identifies Kareem as a long-term flirtation. 15. Christina says she and Kareem have known each other for about 15 years and have probably made out at least 20 times. 16. Jen tells a second party story from a Canadian comedy event, where a comic told everyone they looked like brother and sister before making out with her in a circle of people. 17. The tone stays conversational and fast, with both hosts interrupting, laughing, and switching from family topics to dating stories. 18. The format feels like two comedians riffing from notes, with the energy rising around confessions and punchlines rather than a formal interview. 19. Anyone who likes comedian banter, dating stories, and family embarrassment will likely enjoy this. 20. Anyone looking for a tightly structured interview or serious topic focus may skip it.
