Sincerely Sidney #9 - A Star is Borked | a narrative comedy podcast

After her highly disastrous dinner with Elton, Greg with a C and No Sweat Six Pack launch an intervention to try to bring Sidney back from the dark side. She seemingly sees the errors of her ways and repents, unwilling to risk losing her newfound friends and all that comes with being an influencer.

As the next step in her incredibly unlikely rise in fame and stardom, Sidney wins an Oscar in beautiful Los Angeles. However, during her acceptance speech, her true colors show yet again, and she destroys all of the goodwill she had built with virtually everyone she knows.

In a downward spiral, Sidney finds herself in the happiest place on Earth: Times Square. After a brief musical interlude, Sidney has a revelation and sees the path towards redemption and happiness comes not through glib statements, but true, honest, authentic contrition. And she thinks she knows how to do it, too.

Sincerely Sidney is a narrative comedy podcast for people who enjoy podcasts like the Doughboys, All Fantasy Everything, and the podcasts in the broader Comedy Bang Bang World universe. It's in the spirit of TV shows like Bojack Horseman, the Other Two, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and Strangers with Candy. As for movies, what was really the last good comedy released? Men in Black III: International? Cars 2? Maybe that movie with Dave Franco? No, not James Franco. Dave Franco. Wait, wait, no Dave Franco. I was thinking of the other guy from Other Space. Anyway, I think Detective Pikachu was probably the last good comedy.

It's incredible how many people are still playing Pokemon Go. I mean, kudos to them, right? They're often getting outside. They're socializing. They're enjoying themselves. But what happens when someone pulls the plug on that game. There goes the whole community. I've seen people playing in South Dakota. I've seen people playing in California.

Is any of this germane to Sincerely Sidney? No, not remotely. And yet here I am writing it. And here you are reading it. I guess, in some ways, everything is related to Sincerely Sidney, the funniest podcast since that Marc Maron one. Oh, and that one with Conan O'Brien, the tall orange-haired man who used to have a show on NBC. I think it's better than Smart Less, too, but that's because that show seems to involve a lot of pandering.

Disagree with my opinion on Smart Less. Comment below! Agree with my opinion on Conan O'Brien's orange hair? Comment below!

Oh, did I mention that this episode includes a parody of Paul Simon's Graceland? I don't think I did.
