Jesse Thorn and His Talented Friends Are Going on a Boat Trip and You’re Invited (via Splitsider)
[Noted Native, Jesse Thorn, is turning water into wine and wine into urine, which translates into some pretty hefty partying. The comedy portion alone looks insane, and if you’re of a noble bank account ($690), go get nautical. Also, please bring me with you.]

Podcast: You Had to Be There with Sara Schaefer and Nikki Glaser. Episode 76: Emily Heller. Download Link: Here. iTunes Link: Here. Official Link: Here.
This week, the ladies describe the agony and the ecstasy of handling hecklers, inspired by a recent showdown Nikki won at the Cellar. Sara recounts a potentially scary exchange from the road that ended the best possible way and invites hilarious comic Emily Heller (John Oliver’s New York Stand-Up Show, Baby Geniuses podcast) to tell a horror story of her own. Next, the competition for Most Similar to Emily begins: is it Sara, who once played Emily on national television, or Nikki, with whom Emily shares a fun neurological condition/super power? The trio delve into difficult dating, toxic friendships, and mild sex cults, but close out on a positive note by talking pee (trademark pending) about some of their peers. So listen up, you might get a brain tingle or two.
