Today we have comedian Ali Macofsky on to discuss the controversies surrounding today's American Royalty. That's right, the YouTube personalities. We ask if Hawk Tuah is innocent, figure out what's going on emotionally with the gay barstool fans, and we discover together what Brianna Chickenfry's whole deal is. And we dream of a future where maybe celebrities are so small that they're just random people on the street. Let's go girls!

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.
