Join gal pals and standup comedians Mandy Simonson and Lisa Rimmert as they talk about their late starts to comedy, pop culture, overcoming bed wetting, and much more. Originally from the Bay Area, Mandy Simonson is a Portland-based comedian whose older brothers’ childhood tormenting left her with thick skin and a sharp wit. She began stand-up mostly to escape the suburbs and prove she can stay up past 9 PM — then it turned out she was onto something, parlaying that into a residency at NYC’s Broadway Comedy Club and East Austin Comedy Club as well as performances at the HaHa Harvest Comedy Festival. Mandy’s comedy takes on tough topics with a light heart, like staring down breast cancer and giving it the middle finger. After all this she’ll leave you feeling like you just left a gab sesh with your best friend. Lisa Rimmert is a standup comedian and writer based in the Seattle area. Her skillful joke writing and natural charisma have delighted audiences all over the country, from one Washington to the other and throughout the midwest. She performs regularly at comedy clubs and bars throughout the Seattle area, and she has participated in festivals in Oregon and Colorado. Lisa brings to the stage—and the pod—infectious humor, confidence, and congeniality. Whether she’s making puns or discussing women’s rights, she does it with a lighthearted demeanor that’ll leave you giggling. She’s also an award-winning author, no big deal (dusts shoulders off).Copyright 2023 All rights reserved. Ciencias Sociales

    Ep 19: Quitting
    Mar 23 2025

    It’s a wonder we could finish Episode 19, because we are quitters — in the best ways! Join us for a tenacious talk about quitting the things we don't wanna do. Find out why Lisa had three W2s in a single year and why Mandy resigned from a job after a single day! Hear why we rejoice in walking away from controversial conversations, abandoning hobbies that aren't fun, and never joining a book club in the first place. We hope you stick with us through this episode about how we can’t stick to anything!----

    Ep 18: Big Opinions
    Jan 26 2025

    In Episode 18, we share our opinions about… opinions. We look at the power of holding a strong point-of-view on stage, and the issues we have with it in real life. We learn that Mandy can see both sides of an argument and that Lisa feels strongly about institutions but thinks most people are just doin' their best. The gal pals touch on contentious topics in non-contentious ways—from policing to animal rights. Listen or don't. Either way, we understand.

    Ep 17: New York
    Oct 16 2024

    We’re back, baby! Season 2 kicks off with Mandy and Lisa taking a bite out of The Big Apple. From the living-room-slash-bathroom of Mandy’s summer digs in NYC, the gal pals share their favorite things about New York City (walkin’, talkin’ and eatin’). They detail ways they could pass as New York City locals. They dig into what it means to be thanked for your service. And Mandy details her amazing celebrity encounter with—whoops—not who she thought it was.
