Southpaw feat. Chris Faga & Shawn Gardini | PitM #280

·1 hr 3 min·5 clips

Chris Faga describes discovering a ping pong ball-sized lump on his gooch after a trip with Nate.

The episode opens with host LeMaire Lee introducing co-hosts Nate Marshall and Andy Malafarina, along with guest Chris Faga. After brief holiday greetings, the group immediately falls into casual banter, with Chris joking about turning over a new leaf and not being nasty anymore. Conversation briefly touches on the Eagles football game before Andy shares a story about almost towing a pickup truck parked in his paid apartment spot, leading to a debate about compassion versus justice. The discussion pivots to Chris Faga's detailed account of developing a painful rectal abscess after a comedy tour with Nate Marshall to Buffalo and Baltimore. He describes the abscess growing to the size of a ping pong ball, preventing him from defecating, and his eventual visit to an urgent care. There, a female doctor lanced the abscess while he was in the fetal position, causing him to scream in pain. He recounts performing stand-up with gauze in his pants and using the story to filibuster a bad crowd. Later, the topic shifts to Andy Malafarina's confession about masturbating with a 'Western grip' (backhanded) and switching hands before climax, which sparks a lengthy, humorous debate about the normality of the technique. Throughout, there are tangents about sports figures like Jokic and Brock Lesnar, trash food in Buffalo like the 'Stinger' sandwich, editing mishaps with CapCut watermarks, and interactions with police. The episode closes with brief mentions of chess and a call to join the Patreon.

As heard by us

Buffalo food, Skankfest travel, Domino's rescue, and a chess detour turn into a loose, filthy hangout.

Buffalo food gives the episode its first push: wings, beef on weck, chicken fried steak, and the kind of meals that sound as if a teenager made the menu after a dare.
