[Contains explicit content] Josie Long is an award-winning comedian, but that doesn't mean she has accomplished everything in life that she'd like to. For example, she hasn't settled down with anyone or had any kids, and sometimes air travel proves a little difficult. She joined Eugene Mirman in the studio to discuss a story about life, love, and growing up. She originally told it at the Soho Theatre for her Cara Josephine stand-up special. Adorkable!

[Contains explicit content] Julie Klausner (Difficult People, author of I Don't Care About Your Band) is a sharp-tongued comedian whose ability to dress down celebrities is well documented. When caught off guard by a rude stranger when she was visiting Italy, Julie responded in a less articulate but no less effective manner. Eugene Mirman brought her into the studio to share the ordeal and have a few laughs about it.

[Contains explicit content] David Cross (Mr. Show, Arrested Development) is a pillar of the comedy world, but even a man who is known for acerbic, often political standup and metatextual, intricate sketch writing can still have a soft spot for a good old-fashioned prank. Eugene Mirman brought David onstage at the NYC Podfest to revisit the impromptu execution of that practical joke and ask him questions about how it all played out. Live from New York it's Hold On with Eugene Mirman!

[Contains explicit content] Maybe you couldn't make it to Portland for the 2017 Bridgetown Comedy Festival, but now, with the help of modern technology, you can have a virtual simulation of being in the audience for a live episode of Hold On with Eugene Mirman. Marvel at Guy Branum's sassy story of unsuccessful sexcapades, be star struck by Karen Kilgariff's Bill Murray encounter, bask in the inglorious origin of Kyle Kinane's comedy career, and weep with joy as Eugene Mirman asks all the questions he can.

Dave Hill (author of Tasteful Nudes and Dave Hill Doesn't Live Here Anymore, host of The Goddamn Dave Hill Show on WFMU) could probably shred a little death metal if you asked him, but that doesn't make him an expert on death.

[Contains explicit content] If you thought Eugene Mirman would only travel to Montreal for the Just For Laughs Festival in order to do a special, live Hold On event once, you thought wrong! No need to beat yourself up over it, though. Instead, enjoy a night of stories and questions from this year's festival featuring: Katherine Ryan telling the horrifying tale of a radio contest gone wrong, Gina Yashere recounting a disastrous Acapulco trip, and Kurt Braunohler and Lauren Cook go halfsies on their own tricky travel tale.

Curious host Eugene shared his questions about Mike's coming-of-age tale to find out how the former poet came to be a comic.

Jon Glaser (Parks and Recreation, Girls, Delocated) is a pretty cool guy, but even cool guys make mistakes. On this airborne episode of Hold On, Jon revisits the time he mistook a fellow passenger in first class for someone else and the awkward flight that ensued. Host Eugene Mirman is on board for the awkwardness, to ask some questions, and land a few jokes.

[Contains explicit content] Neil deGrasse Tyson is the most famous astrophysicist to ever tell a story to Eugene Mirman on a show called Hold On. He's also probably the most famous astrophysicist ever to tell a story to any Eugene for any reason, but it's the story he told THIS Eugene that you'll want to hear. In it, a pre-fame Neil weighs a potential graduate school job. If you were given as many guesses as there are stars in the universe, you probably couldn't guess what that job was!

Horatio Sanz is an important figure in the Chicago comedy scene. The Chicago neighborhood that teenage Horatio would frequent with his friends also happened to be home to a few unsavory characters, one of whom may have improvised a little vigilante justice and a lot of arson.
