We're Here to Help

Listen for free

Jake Johnson (New Girl, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse) and Gareth Reynolds (The Dollop) don't feel qualified to give strangers good advice. Most of their friendship over the last 15 years has been based around dumb bits, but they do (for better or worse) want to try to help people out. Like your friendly local bartender or your tipsy uncle at a family gathering, Jake and Gareth are on the caller's side and trying to help. Each episode, the guys make several pitches to callers (whose questions range from trivial to serious) with their best attempts of advice. They can't promise their suggestions will be perfect, but it will be the best they've got. Jake and Gareth also occasionally bring on a friend, peer or even an expert to help along the way.

Came in late but I'm all caught up! Couldn't stop listening, these guys hit it out of the park with this podcast. Such an amazing concept and their banter while problem solving is the best.

Always Hilarious

I never miss an episode. Both of these guys are super funny. Gareth is one of the quickest, wittiest comedians I know of. I am mostly writing this on the off chance that the boys see it. I want them to know that I like the new episodes that they are trying out, where they just bs with other comedians. I hope they keep making episodes like that.

I love call in shows and these two are hilarious
