This week Sam and George are joined by the one and only Gabe Liedman, who breaks down why footwear is one of the only avenues straight people have to express themselves, which can of course be a slippery slope, historically speaking. Also addressed: Barney's as a mythical space, the three remaining valid binaries, the difficulties of being on-camera talent in an off-camera world, Sam and George's fruitless trip to the East Hampton Prada, and Gabe's lasting influence on the comedy community — and the performing arts globally!

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.
