When it comes to satirical observational comedy, Eugene Mirman is a wizard at finding humor in what ordinary people find mundane. Tune in to find out why you should get your daughter a neck tattoo and how to make ten Saudi Arabian men give you $40 each.

Fake underground lab set is gloriously unnecessary commitment.
Director
Ryan Polito
