Jensen Karp (Get Up On This) is a true multi-hyphenate. He’s a writer, a gallery owner, an entrepreneur, a producer, a manager and a former rapper. And an author: the upcoming Kanye West Owes Me $300 (And Other True Stories from a White Rapper Who Almost Made it Big), due out June 7, chronicles his unlikely rise as the rapper Hot Karl. We talked about his childhood in Woodland Hills, getting bullied for loving rap and hip hop, performing at age 12, rap battles, media savvy, prognosticating trends, lapel pins, OCD, trauma, new clothes and so much more. We also took your questions over Twitter and did a round of Just Me Or Everyone.

Should you wash and dry your jeans before getting them altered? It’s a complicated issue and the Thursday gang is here to weigh in. Plus we recount some glorious pants past and talk about the fact Jenna has never had a pork chop and has only recently tried fried chicken. Plus Jeff shared his weed adventure and pot epiphany and I recall the same series of thoughts I would find myself having every single time I was high. Also Fifty Nifty and Really Rosie,  a snack chat with mulberries, a round of Just Me Or Everyone and we talked about an adoptable dog named Kong. (UPDATE: Kong has been adopted but check out Alpine! He’s been in for too long.)

Here’s Alpine:

Comedian Rory Scovel (The Charleston Special, Those Who Can’t) returns to the show to talk about contrived honesty, people pleasing and how being a new father has affected his relationships, pretending to be easy breezy, not feeling the need to be a people pleaser onstage, eating and not eating meat and sugar, his belief that he has zero game, his friendship with Todd Glass, college bodies, being your own boss, Catholic school guilt and so much more. We also took your questions over Twitter and did a round of Just Me Or Everyone.

I first met comedian and actress Tiffany Haddish (Keanu, The Carmichael Show) when we both appeared on a radio show and ever since then I’ve hoped to have her on ARIYNBF. I’d heard bits and pieces of her story and got the sense she’d had a rough upbringing but I wasn’t quite prepared for the intensity of what she’d experienced. Abusive parents, foster care, living in her car, an abusive first husband, care taking from the age of 8, and even as I write this I feel as if I’m not conveying the particulars that make her story so powerful. And yet throughout, she’s joking and positive. In addition, we talked about the importance of trusting your first mind, when she was misquoted by TMZ, auditioning for SNL, the help she received from Kevin Hart, arguing with Dane Cook, Six Flags abortions, eating rat meat, peach jello, audition makeup and so much more. We also did a round of Just Me Or Everyone.

I’m in love with actress, writer and comedian Arden Myrin. I love that she claims to have looked like “a little red-headed gentleman” until she was 19, I love that she describes herself as “silly and rascally” and I love listening to her talk about how for her, stand up has been a spiritual journey. Also, there’s the story about what happened to her ladyparts while enthusiastically doing the worm onstage but that one just makes me want to cross my legs for eternity. In addition, on this episode we talked about The Bachelor, Arden’s parents marrying on a dare and her relationship with each of them, salty dogs, Mad TV and what all the women performers had in common, working as an elf at Macy’s, losing her special sauce, body image, insomnia and so much more. We also took your questions over Twitter and did a round of Just Me Or Everyone.

In keeping with my New Year’s resolution to be more social, I attended Greg Fitzsimmons 50th birthday party where I both had a good time and endured a shockingly painful massage. We also talked about Jenna’s cling wrap battles, banana bread, whether women actually get mad at men for holding doors, not knowing about wine, bagging your own groceries, fears of home invasion and so much more. Plus we did a round of Just Me Or Everyone and talked about an adoptable dog named Alpine.

On this episode we recounted the recent shooting of my pilot and Greg’s affinity for on-set pranks. Plus all the coffee I drink while performing, whether people have better sides, sausages, Vanderpump Rules, what #AL knows about pillows, everyone’s pillow preference, how to write numbers, frozen dinners and upsetting revelations courtesy of my husband. Plus we did a round of Just Me Or Everyone and talked about an adoptable dog named Mr. Wilson.
