About this episode

Comedian Christina Pazsitzky welcomes Ryan Long to Your Mom's House for a wide-ranging conversation exploring comedy, social norms, and internet culture. The Toronto-based comedian, known for his fearless satirical sketches mocking all sides of the political spectrum, discusses his approach to comedy and the cultural differences between Canadian and American humor. A significant moment comes when Long reveals he was threatened with legal action by a Denver testosterone clinic over a satirical post, an incident he describes as ironically embodying the low testosterone behavior the clinic treats. The pair explore various internet subcultures and viral personalities, including Long's popular sketch about men who manage OnlyFans accounts for sex workers. They discuss the differences between film set culture and stand-up comedy, with both agreeing that comedy's unglamorous nature keeps performers grounded unlike the coddling atmosphere of acting productions. The episode touches on controversial topics including Toronto's laws allowing public toplessness, swinger culture in Mexico, and the commodification of unusual physical characteristics online. Long shares his upcoming comedy special taping at Denver's Comedy Works and reflects on creating content during America's most politically divided moments. The conversation showcases both comedians' commitment to finding humor in taboo subjects while maintaining genuine curiosity about human behavior at its strangest.
