Career Reveals, Bucket List Items & the Return of Anti-Grombolio

Josh Gondelman and Matt Bragg revisit the "anti-grombolio" controversy from a previous episode and open up the listener mailbag.

The Word Heard Round The Nightly: After comedian Jo Firestone introduced the possibly-made-up term “anti-grombolio” on a recent episode, listeners wrote in with their reviews.

Micro Grombolio, 1 Star: A dramatic restaurant review sent in by a listener raises big questions about greetings, appetizers, and what qualifies as “small food.”

So… What Do You Actually Do?: Inspired by a sweet note from Listener Gigi, Josh and Matt share more about their lives outside Hatch: stand-up tours, TV writing rooms, arena shows, and YouTube specials included.

Bucket List Items: Josh and Matt each share a top-tier dream, from visiting all seven continents to scuba diving through shipwrecks and headlining a massive arena.
