PODCAST

StraightioLab

Big Money Players Network and iHeartPodcasts

StraightioLab is an intellectual podcast where smart comedians George Civeris and Sam Taggart unpack the rich, multi-colored tapestry of straight culture. In each episode, George and Sam are joined by a guest to hold a MIRROR to society and finally get to the BOTTOM of mysterious and perverse topics such as college fraternities, gender reveal parties, the military, themed restaurants, and the concept of "the holidays." Scared? Good.

"Hometown Pride" w/ Skyler Higley

StraightioLab ·

2025/02/04

Today we're joined by comedian (and Sam's After Midnight coworker) Skyler Higley to travel down that ole country road to the topic we all grew up with: Hometown Pride. That's right, we're going back to where it all began where the trucks are big as houses and the sporting events feel war-adjacent. Plus, we talk about our work personas, what screeds we should all be releasing, and the ethics of carrying a grown man like a baby in a pool. This should solve everything. STRAIGHTIOLAB MERCH:
