Since 2018, the show has evolved into an excuse to chat with a bunch of smart, funny, hot people about everything from anarchism, abolition, and organizing, to parenting, literature, linguistics, kink, drag, film, horror, healthcare, immigration, baseball, wrestling, and decades-old community gossip.

Explicit Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary Matthew Zachary Worldwide The longest-running independent healthcare podcast, Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary has supplied 17 years of unfiltered truth about American healthcare. A 30-year brain cancer survivor, Matthew built the young adult cancer movement from scratch. Now he channels patient rage into political power, featuring on the air battle-scarred survivors, exhausted caregivers, and the rare insider brave enough to name what's killing us. It’s real stories from real people who refuse to accept that healthcare has to hurt this much. New listeners come for the truth. They stay because finally someone's saying what they've been screaming. Explicit Did I Stutter?! with Drew Lynch Drew Lynch Did I Stutter?! is a podcast hosted and guested by the same person. On this weekly hour-long show, we get to live in the mind of an elaborate mad man who takes us on a stream-of-conscious journey through unhinged characters, inventive dialogue, and fully vulnerable asides from Drew's personal life. Broken up with musical themed segments such as "That's My Gripe", "Who Would Win In A Fight?" and "Badvice", the listener gets a glimpse into the way a professional comedian (and amateur lover) would approach the early stages of a bit; mixing the lead parts of a story into an eventually alchemized and hopefully satisfying piece of comedy.
