1. Not Well | A Comedy Podcast centers on Bobby and Jim riffing on skincare, travel, and politics around the episode titled "Hot Dogs On White Bread Sound Like Something Katy Perry Would Eat." 2. Bobby and Jim are the hosts, and their back-and-forth matters because they drive every topic from lip gloss to tariffs to flight upgrades. 3. The episode asks what a comedy podcast can do with airline frustration, celebrity space travel, and American labor politics in one conversation. 4. The opening moves from a Dr. Dennis Gross lip gloss to "black is slimming" and a complaint about feeling "puffy." 5. Bobby says the lip product costs about "$40" and lasts "forever," while the hosts compare skincare spending to gambling. 6. They say they're "going to Ireland" and joke about being "booked and busy" and then leaving again. 7. The airline section turns to Spirit, Southwest, United, and Breeze, with a specific complaint that Spirit tried to charge an extra "$800" for a next-day flight. 8. Jim describes a transatlantic upgrade to first business and the hosts compare premium seats, recliners, and footrests with the cheaper "buses in the sky." 9. They argue that airlines make more money from long-haul international premium seats than from economy travel. 10. The episode then pivots to China making fun of Americans and Katy Perry going to space for "11 minutes." 11. The hosts say the people on the Blue Origin flight were called "crew" even though they were passengers. 12. They point out that the footage looked fake, that the women were styled with makeup and hair done, and that the outfits had corsets stitched in. 13. Bobby and Jim connect the flight to Jeff Bezos, calling the display a "big dick in the sky" and a spectacle for billionaires. 14. They also mention NASA scientists being fired by "Doge" while the space flight was framed as a bonding moment for women. 15. The discussion turns to Katy Perry's earlier choices, including working with Dr. Luke and joking about Britney Spears's shaved head. 16. The hosts later call out the strange mismatch between public branding and private behavior, including a discussion of testosterone, "gender affirming care," and men trying to look more masculine. 17. The tone stays loose, profane, and conversational, with rapid topic changes and repeated interruptions between the two hosts. 18. The format is a two-host comedy rant that moves from personal life updates into social commentary without formal transitions. 19. Listeners who like raunchy banter about flights, celebrities, and politics. 20. Listeners who want a calm, structured, or non-explicit show.

As heard by us

A loose conversation about skincare, taste, and the preferences people are slow to explain.

This leans hard on vanity, skincare pricing, and the awkward gap between what people desire and what they admit out loud. A Dr. Dennis Gross mention opens into lip plumpness, cost per use, and the messy habit of explaining attraction as if it were a spreadsheet problem.
