We hit 300,000 Instagram followers!!!

This episode was supposed to be simple. After you guys loved the cabin-in-the-woods chaos, we thought - let’s do it again, but on the beach. What could go wrong?Everything. Absolutely everything.In this episode you’ll see:Our beach attempt where it’s freezing, windy, and the ocean is literally attacking us every 10 seconds The pier attempt where Security is “directing,” forgets his notes, and breaks his phone mid-filming The Central Park pond attempt featuring turtles, tourists, and audio so bad it sounds like we’re interviewing strangers The final pivot where we somehow stitch together whatever footage survivedAlso included:Games that make zero senseMe realizing mid-episode this might never airSecurity confidently taking control… and immediately losing controlA very expensive “low production value” episodeAnd somehow… here we are.If you’ve ever had a day where nothing goes right—this one’s for you.If you want more behind-the-scenes chaos, head over to Patreon: Schall We Talk And if you’re watching on YouTube, please subscribe, like, and comment.

This one is a scarrrrrrryyyyy one in the best way. Part 2 of Security's under-$80 Airbnb is here!!! So, we did not do the smart thing and leave before dark. No. We stayed in the creepy little cabin/shed/wooden box in the middle of the woods and filmed a spooky nighttime episode instead. Naturally.In this episode we talk: Why this episode exists in the first place: an Airbnb challenge that got wildly out of hand The horrifying realization that our “cabin” was basically a wooden shed in the woods Our growing fear of bears, serial killers, ghosts, spiders, coyotes, wolves, and literally every sound outside My Ouija board story and why I will never mess with spirits again The ghost story from our childhood house where footsteps downstairs were just… a normal thing The absolutely terrifying Ohio Airbnb where we heard a woman screaming in the distance all night The D.C. Airbnb mystery where a TV turned on by itself in the middle of the night and nobody in the house claimed it The punishment for every time I said “like” too much: 20 minutes alone outside in the dark A surprisingly emotional middle-of-the-woods ramble about some of the happiest moments of my life, including going viral, my first date with Dr. Piano Man, getting engaged, getting my leg braces off, and proving one awful guy wrong at Town HallMama Schall's spooky motherly advice: turn on all the lights, keep your phone charged, and call someone if things start feeling weirdAlso in real life, right after filming this, Security realized he lost his wallet in the woods. So yes, this little Airbnb adventure kept giving.If you want more behind-the-scenes chaos, head over to Patreon: Schall We Talk And if you’re watching on YouTube, please subscribe, like, and comment.

This episode is a full rollercoaster.We start with the biggest update: we officially crossed sell my art in Central Park off the goals list and had our very first art show and sale for Muddy Paws Rescue… and you guys showed UP. It was fun, emotional, chaotic, and yes, there was immediately a fight with a man claiming our spot in the park. Security went full big brother mode. I was just trying to sell paintings and save puppies. In this episode we talk:The Central Park art sale and how we raised $5,500 for Muddy Paws The man who tried to bully us out of our space before the show even started Meeting so many of you in person and why these goals-list events always mean so much to me Why I couldn’t sleep after the adrenaline crash and recorded another middle-of-the-night podcast My full thoughts on the Bachelorette / Mormon wives / Taylor Frankie Paul situation and why ABC really pulled the season A deep dive into wild Reddit wedding storiesMama Schall closes things out with producer shout-outs and motherly advice about staying calm when dealing with bullies and not losing your temper.If you want more behind-the-scenes chaos, head over to Patreon: Schall We Talk And if you’re watching on YouTube, subscribe, like, and comment.

Cabin in the Woods Airbnb Disaster Okay friends, this episode is chaos from the jump. What started as a normal podcast idea about Airbnb horror stories somehow turned into Security finding us an actual $70 Airbnb in New York… which turned out to be a tiny cabin in the woods with hammocks, ladders, an outhouse, a bear warning sign, and absolutely no chance I was sleeping there. In this episode we talk:-How a casual studio conversation turned into “find an Airbnb under $80 and we’ll film there”-The horrifying moment I realized we were truly in the woods and could absolutely be murdered for content-The cabin setup: two loft cots, hammocks, an outhouse, and me immediately deciding we were leaving before dark-Airbnb horror stories from you guys -Our own unhinged Airbnb stories, including the Seattle basement grandma-and-grandpa surprise-The absolutely insane LA Airbnb saga where an owner tried to scam me for $1,400 and lost-Why I could never be a nurse, camper, or apparently a person who pees in an outhouse-Mama Schall's producer shout-outs and emergency motherly advice from the wildernessAlso, full disclosure: this episode exists in a weird timeline because we filmed this before Security realized he lost his wallet in the woods. So if you follow me on Instagram and know the wallet drama… just know Future Robyn is protecting Past Robyn from that emotional spiral for now. 💀If you want more behind-the-scenes chaos, head over to Patreon: Schall We Talk  And if you’re watching on YouTube, subscribe, like, and comment.

Okay, this one is a little unhinged in the best way. Part of this episode was filmed in the past, part was filmed in the future, and somehow Security and I still ended up doing what we do best: giving advice we may or may not be qualified to give. In this episode we talk:Why this episode is confusing on YouTube: past Robyn is in a baseball cap and long dark hair and future Robyn in a jean jacket and short brown hair.I give Security advice about a friend group where everyone talks badly about one person and he’s stuck in the middleSecurity giving me advice about how to deal with someone who constantly messes up websites, flyers, cameras, and socks with holes in them and happens to be your brother.The official calendar launch and how my mother bought TEN of them immediately.Our billion-dollar Shark Tank idea: underwear with my butt painting printed on the butt.The actual advice segment: Security and I answer relationship and life questions separately to see who gives better advice.Love bombing vs real connection, bridesmaid budget drama, getting iced out at work after a promotion, and the universal truth that some men simply need to be dumped.Mama Schall calling in mid-episode, giving producer shout-outs, and reminding us there is enough room for everyone.Also, very important: in the comments, please let us know who gave better advice this episode. Me or Security? I already know the answer, but go ahead and confirm it. If you want more behind-the-scenes content, head over to Patreon: Shall We Talk And if you’re watching on YouTube, subscribe, like, and comment - we are still crawling our way to 10,000 subscribers.Producer shout-outs:Victoria, Susan Santoro, Thomas Ives, Dr. Piano Man, Toni Hatinger, Veronica, and Deanna Calendars - www.etsy.com/RobynsBookShop#SchallWeTalk #Episode20 #AdviceEpisode #ComedyPodcast #SiblingPodcast #RobynSchall #Security #DatingAdvice #RelationshipAdvice #HingeDating #CalendarLaunch #PatreonCreator #YouTubeCreator #Comedy #PodcastEpisode #FunnyPodcast #WeddingPlanning #SharkTankIdea #MotherlyAdvice

Okay this week’s episode starts off chaotic (as usual) because we tried to open by talking about “blind people” and immediately realized… let’s pick out words better. What we meant was: Love Is Blind, and how love can make you ignore red flags the size of Times Square.We get into my full rant on this season (Pilates guy, period guy, and why some of these men should not be allowed near a Netflix casting form)… and then we read some of your real-life dating disaster submissions from the Schall We Talk website that made us both want to crawl under the table.In this episode we talk:The one and only time it’s acceptable to “order for the table” (and why most people still do it wrong)First date money rules: who pays, when you offer, and why Venmo requests are a no on first dates.Love Is Blind: why go on a show with that title if you’re going to keep announcing your “type” every 12 minutesThe infamous Pilot story (bus change included… yes, it’s worse than you remember)Your bad date story: the “serious foodie” who ordered for you… and then Venmo’d you $47.32 with a smiley faceAnd we close out with Mama Schall’s Motherly Advice of the week: if a date starts going sideways, have an exit plan and never leave your drink unattended.If you’ve got a bad date you need to get off your chest, submit it at SchallWeTalk.com and we’ll pull more for future episodes.And if you want the behind-the-scenes chaos that can’t always make it on air, head over to Patreon: Shall We Talk Producer shout-outs:Toni Hattinger, Veronica, Deanna, Susan Santoro, Thomas Ives, and Dr. Piano Man #SchallWeTalk #LoveIsBlind #DatingDisasters #BadDates #DatingStories #RelationshipTalk #RedFlags #NetflixReality #Podcast #ComedyPodcast #YouTubePodcast #PatreonCreator #MotherlyAdvice #VenmoRequest #NYC #RobynSchall

This episode was recorded at 3:47 in the morning because I couldn’t sleep… and instead of spiraling alone, I decided to turn on the cameras and talk to you.What started as anxiety, overthinking, and a middle-of-the-night brain spiral turned into one of the most vulnerable (and chaotic) episodes we’ve ever done. There are Reddit deep dives, surprise guests, vulnerability, laughter, and a reminder that sometimes the quietest hours bring the most honest conversations.In this episode we talk:Anxiety at 3am, career uncertainty, and the pressure of “what’s next”Viral videos vs. feeling like nothing is happening (and why our brains do that)Wild Reddit stories: matching wedding dresses with your mother-in-law, fake proposals, secret double lives, and DNA tests that blew up familiesCalling Security in the middle of the night to confirm I was actually recording (and him answering half asleep)Surprise appearance by Dr. Piano Man in his underwear and the incredible story of how he taught himself to read, discovered libraries, and became who he is todayLove, partnership, and why being supported by the right person changes everythingAnd we close out with Mama Schall's Motherly Advice of the weekLinks & ways to get involvedFollow Robyn on Instagram & TikTok: @robynschallcomicPatreon (bonus videos and behind-the-scenes): https://www.patreon.com/schallwetalkPatreon Producers:Toni Hattinger, Veronica, Deanna, Susan Santoro, Thomas Ives, and Dr. Piano ManProduced by Security#SchallWeTalk #3AMThoughts #CantSleep #ComedyPodcast #LateNightThoughts #AnxietyTalk #RedditStories #RelationshipTalk #PodcastEpisode #WomenInComedy #NYCComedy #LifeTalk #LoveStory #BehindTheScenes #PatreonCreator

Hey KIDS! Today’s episode is a little different and honestly… a full rollercoaster.Security actually did work (we’ll see how this goes) and pulled five memorable calls from my old podcast Call Waiting. I haven’t listened in over a year, so you’re getting my real-time reactions as we relive the chaos, the heart, and the “wait… did we really air that?” moments.In this episode we talk:Why I partnered with Betches, why the contract wasn’t great, and why I still did it anyway, the real reason we ended Call Waiting (and how it ended on good terms)A scam story that will make you clutch your phone: DO NOT let strangers touch your phone (ever)Overprotective Parents: the dad who wouldn’t allow sleepovers because “they’ll save THEIR kids first” (and then my flammable rope ladder logic)The “Hercules” ex call. It’s  emotional, sweet, and the reminder that your partner should ignite your passion, not extinguish itHalloween Ghost Stories: the top hat man… possibly Abraham Lincoln (jury’s out)Dating Disasters: the Mexican food aftermath + cleaning frenzy + “Poop Boy” (I’m still unwell)Thanksgiving gratitude that made us both soft: friendship love, support through grief, and why girlfriends are everythingAnd we close out with Mama Schall's Motherly Advice of the week: Know when a chapter is over.

This week on Schall We Talk, we are “upping the production value”… and somehow everything gets worse.We talk about the surprise early episode upload from last week (oops), a full spiral about whether anyone even listens to the podcast, the sweetest DM that completely turned my week around, and then… Security and I decide to bring back the old days with...Games.If you ever wondered what it was like growing up in the Schall house -  this is it. We break down childhood classics like Troll Bungee Jumping and Soda (yes, it was basically waterboarding), and then bring that same chaotic sibling energy into:• Truth or Dare (featuring Dr. Piano Man and an elephant wedding entrance request) • A Cosmo quiz about saying “I’m sorry” too much • Mad Libs that absolutely spiral out of control • Security dressed as an old lady for no good reasonIt’s messy. It’s ridiculous. It’s very Season 2.Thank you to everyone who listens, watches, comments, and messages.

Okay friends! This is it. The wedding dress episode, and we’re giving you the full behind-the-scenes breakdown of my Kleinfeld day with Mama Schall… plus Security’s third Hinge date of January because apparently I’m running a dating bootcamp now. In this episode we talk:How partnering with Martina Liana happened (yes, I slid into the DMs)Why I only brought my mom - no opinions, no pressure, just vibesKleinfeld’s VIP experience: private room, champagne, the iconic curtain reveal, and our consultant Brandi keeping the energy at 1000The moment I knew it was THE dress (and how it somehow combined all the dresses into one magical-dream gown)The plot twist: I’m wearing TWO Martina Liana gowns that weekend… including one for the welcome party.Why Dr. Piano Man saw the dress and why we’re skipping “bad luck” traditions. We’re doing what makes us happy.The emotional crash no one warns you about: post-dress adrenaline + a 2 a.m. spiral + the “good, you’re the bride” pep talkAnd we close out with Mama Schall’s Motherly Advice of the week: think before you speak… and if someone starts a sentence with “no offense,” cut them off immediately.

This week on Schall We Talk, Robyn officially enters her bride era (she picked her wedding dress!) and then immediately descends into absolute cooking chaos.Robyn heads into the kitchen to try viral cloud bread… which does not survive contact with egg yolk. Instead of giving up, she pivots mid-episode and accidentally invents a surprisingly delicious sprinkle sponge cake that may be the best thing she’s ever baked.Along the way, Robyn answers listener advice questions, talks about love, anxiety, wedding excitement, and why sometimes messing up is exactly how you end up with something better than the original plan. Mama Schall debuts her new motherly advice segment, reminding everyone to put the phone down at night and choose peace (and sitcoms).It’s messy, funny, heartfelt, and very on brand.🍞 Cloud Bread (The Original Plan)Ingredients3 large egg whites2½ tablespoons sugar1 tablespoon cornstarchFood coloring (optional)How to MakePreheat oven to 300°F (150°C).Separate egg whites carefully (no yolk — learn from our mistakes).Whip egg whites with a mixer until foamy and starting to stiffen.Gradually add sugar, then cornstarch, whipping until stiff peaks form.Fold in food coloring if using.Scoop onto a lined baking sheet, shape into a cloud.Bake 20–25 minutes until set and lightly golden.(Results may vary depending on yolk-related chaos.)🎂 Accidental Sprinkle Sponge Cake (The Pivot)Ingredients3 eggs2½ tablespoons sugar1 tablespoon cornstarch¼ cup flour½ teaspoon baking powderSplash of vanilla extractSprinkles (optional but encouraged)How to MakePreheat oven to 300°F.Whisk eggs, sugar, and cornstarch together.Add flour, baking powder, and vanilla.

This week on Schall We Talk, it’s all all chaos, some celebrities and tsunami sized tampons.Robyn kicks things off with “Is this celebrity a  fact, true or false?” featuring Taylor Swift, Keanu Reeves, Ed Sheeran, Beyoncé, Christopher Walken, and more… and yes, Security absolutely tries an impression (we will not be taking questions at this time).Then Robyn’s best friend (and returning guest) Regina DiCicco stops by for a rapid-fire game: they name celebrities and have to share a real memory or behind-the-scenes moment they’ve never told (or barely told) before. Expect stories involving Leslie Jordan, John Lithgow, Michael Douglas, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Christina Applegate, and the time Selena Gomez used their audio and they ended up on Entertainment Tonight.Plus: Dr. Piano Man pops in mid-recording, the number 10 wins the episode, and Mama Schall calls in from Saratoga… while actively trying to get back to her card game.Patreon Producers Shout-Out:Veronica (last name TBD), Susan Santoro, Thomas Ives, and Dr. Piano Man.Produced by SecurityJoin Patreon: behind-the-scenes videos, livestreams, and bonus moments we can’t put in the main episode.Hashtags: #SchallWeTalk #RobynSchall #Podcast #ComedyPodcast #CelebrityStories #TrueOrFalse #PopCulture #ReginaDiCicco #Security #MamaSchall #DrPianoMan #BehindTheScenes #Patreon #NYCComedy #StandUpComedy

Season 2 premiere! 🎉Schall We Talk is back and we’re kicking things off with a pop culture catch-up you didn’t know you needed. After a three-week hiatus, Robyn returns to the mic and sits down with her go-to pop culture friend, Belinda, to break down everything that went down while we were gone.From the viral Cher / Kristen Bell / Dax Shepard podcast moment, to Timothée Chalamet thanking Kylie Jenner as his “partner of three years,” to Tom Brady and Alex Earle rumors in St. Barts to the toxic celebrity mom group. Robyn and Belinda unpack Ashley Tisdale’s “toxic mom group” article, Hilary Duff’s husband clapping back, Meghan Trainor’s TikTok response, and why grown-up friendship drama somehow never stops being a thing.Season 2 promises bigger conversations, more guests, and plenty of chaos — and this episode sets the tone perfectly.Links & ways to get involvedFollow Robyn on Instagram & TikTok: @robynschallcomicPatreon (bonus videos and behind-the-scenes): https://www.patreon.com/schallwetalkAtlanta Show tickets: www.robynschall.comPatreon Producers: Victoria (last name TBD), Susan Santoro, Thomas Ives, and Dr. Piano Man.Produced by Security

Robyn sits down with her lifelong friend and Broadway powerhouse Marissa Rosen to talk about growing up together on Long Island, chasing big theater dreams, and what it actually feels like to make your Broadway debut. Marissa shares how she landed “For the Girls” with Kristin Chenoweth, the very un-glamorous story behind her onstage concussion in Water for Elephants, and what it’s like to be the “character type” in an industry obsessed with leading ladies. They reminisce about middle school elections, bad wigs, and high school musicals, then wrap things up with a chaotic musical-humming game and a sweet (and slightly unhinged) drop-in from Mama Schall. In this episode: Robyn explains why this is actually episode 11, not 10, and what happened to the “lost” triathlon episode How Robyn and Marissa met in pre-K and ended up doing school musicals together (Into the Woods, Jack’s mom, Little Red, the whole thing) Marissa’s early break in My Big Gay Italian Wedding and how that show opened doors in NYC  The midnight “Broadway booty call” that led to her debut in For the Girls with Kristin Chenoweth  The moment onstage when she got to say, “I’m making my Broadway debut right now” and the theater exploded  Life as a working performer: off-Broadway, tours, workshops, and why being a “type” can actually be your superpower  The Water for Elephants concussion story: weighted hula hoops, flying rope, and finishing the show anyway  Bat Boy at City Center: massive theater, short rehearsal window, and stepping into Marissa Jaret Winokur’s role  Robyn & Marissa swap memories of middle school: class president, speeches, and failed treasurer campaigns  A musical humming game that completely falls apart (and somehow still lands on Little Shop and Sound of Music)  Quick chat about Marissa’s Christmas tour with Jessica Vosk and her holiday album with Marty Thomas, The Award Winning Holiday Album  Mama Schall calls in for the Patreon producer shout-outs and a tiny dose of chaos  Links & ways to get involved  Follow Robyn on Instagram & TikTok: @robynschallcomic  Patreon (bonus videos and behind-the-scenes): https://www.patreon.com/schallwetalk Tour tickets (D.C., Philly, Orlando, Key West, Atlanta): robynschall.com Patreon Producers: Victoria (last name TBD), Susan Santoro, Thomas Ives, and Dr. Piano Man.  Produced by Security  #ShallWeTalk #BroadwayStories #MusicalTheaterLife #BroadwayDebut #BehindTheCurtain #PerformerLife #TheatreCommunity #ActorsOfInstagram #ComediansOfInstagram #NYCArts #CreativeLife

The show is a playground for the weird, the wild, and the extremely unpredictable.Think Pee Wee’s Playhouse meets an old-school talk show - where the only thing you can expect is laughter. One episode might feature a science experiment gone wrong, another might involve cooking spaghetti in a waffle iron, and the next could be an outrageous interview or an email from a listener who fell in love with a potato. From chaotic segments to unexpected fails to heartfelt moments, every week is its own adventure.And with her brother (a.k.a. “Security”) producing, you can count on one thing: everything will go hilariously awry.So… Schall we talk?
