Our Editor's Take

The Nikki Glaser Podcast has a simple yet funny premise. Nikki Glaser is a famous standup comedian. She also stars in the Welcome Home Nikki Glaser? reality show. And she hosted HBO MAX's FBOY Island dating show.

This podcast is the audio version of The Nikki Glaser Podcast YouTube video show. Comedian Andrew Collin cohosted many of these episodes until leaving the show in 2022. The show examines current-pop culture events with a comedian's eye. What was up with Taylor Swift's Midnights album drop? Why did Paris Hilton send Nikki a box of cookware? What was FBOY Island like? Listeners can hear the details.

From the Andrew Shares segment to the Succinct Short Story Circle Segment, the episodes are a collection of amusing moments. Both the ridiculous and amazing aspects of Nikki's personal life are subject to recap. Nikki is from St. Louis, and she sang the National Anthem at the city's 2022 Thanksgiving parade. So she jokes about the experience on this podcast.

Refreshing and authentic, The Nikki Glaser Podcast may have listeners laughing out loud. The show even has a hotline where fans can leave them voicemails. The podcast also has interesting guests. Musician Anya Marina and actress Carlisle Forrester made memorable appearances.

Despite its simple premise, The Nikki Glaser Podcast is much more than a recap of current events. It makes everything amusing, from the opening theme song to the final thought. Nikki is a staple on Comedy Central and is the star of her own Netflix special. This fast-paced commentary and controversial opinions may have first-time listeners engaged. This positivity-based show is good for some escape and laughter.

#497 A Cancelled Christmas, Andrew's Wrong Pizza & Behind The Scenes Tea
Nikki's Christmas plans got canceled, but honestly, she's not even that mad about it. It actually made her realize that being in a committed relationship means sticking by your partner when they're sick. Andrew totally gets it—it’s not that they’re selfish, they just get a little absent-minded sometimes when trying to do something nice, and he shares a couple of times he messed up in his own relationship without meaning to. Brian brings up the final Thursday Night Football gig, and they all start spilling behind-the-scenes stories about the writing sessions and writing live. Nikki’s been running sets to prep for her Golden Globes monologue, and she’s had this realization that people in entertainment getting facelifts clearly aren’t working hard enough. While on her press tour, Nikki says the Empire State Building is the spot to hit for promo, and in her Final Thought, she talks about the super successful but also nerve-wracking Instagram video she shot there.

#496 Nikki Glaser NYT Comedian of the Year, Hollywood Events & Expectations

#496 Nikki Glaser NYT Comedian of the Year, Hollywood Events & Expectations
Things are heating up for Nikki! All hail the queen—she’s been nominated for a Golden Globe, a Critics Choice Award, and now named NYT Comedian of the Year! Nikki, Brian, Sean, and Andrew chat about what it was like shooting promos for the Golden Globes. Nikki felt a little awkward because they were super cookie-cutter, but she felt better when Brian reminded her that no one looks cool shooting those things. You know where she never feels awkward? The NYT Crossword Puzzle—don’t mess with her, she’s all about that competition. They also review Emilia Pérez and other recent movies they’ve watched. Nikki, Brian, and Sean had a blast meeting Roseanne Barr. Nikki gave the opening monologue at The Hollywood Reporter’s 2024 Women in Entertainment Power 100, and she shares her thoughts on that experience. With Nikki being the first woman to host the Globes solo (which she thinks is kinda ridiculous to highlight), they ask her who her ideal co-host would be. In the Final Thought, Brian talks about his excitement (and skepticism) about trying hypnotherapy to help with his jaw problems.

#494 Favorite Pop Culture Moment, Emotional Reactions & Is Mattress Firm Legit?
Nikki, doing what she does best, has gathered the ultimate squad at her podcast table. She’s got Brian Frange and Sean O’Connor, her friends and writers for the Golden Globes, plus Chris Convy, her partner and EP for both the Globes and life. In anticipation of hosting the Golden Globes, As she preps for hosting the Golden Globes, Nikki brings up one of her all-time fave pop culture moments — the Will Smith slap heard around the world and the Moonlight mix-up. There’s one more discussion about Wicked because there are still some things to process, like animal rights and Ethan Slater. Brian saw My Old Ass and didn’t cry, which totally shocks Nikki... but does it though? Nikki’s fully bought into the Mattress Firm conspiracy. The Wall Street Journal is writing a piece on Nikki, and when they interviewed her bestie Anya, Nikki told her to spill everything she knows. Chris might be the only one at the table who doesn’t care about being on TV, and that blows everyone else’s mind. In the Final Thought, Nikki gives a rundown of her upcoming schedule and is over the moon about a voicemail from a crying Gen Z Em.

#492 Nikki's Writers' Room, WICKED Review & Screaming For This Shout Out!
Hey Besties, we’re only dropping one episode this week, but we’ll be back with two next week. Have an amazing Thanksgiving—we’re so thankful to have you as part of the Bestie fam! Nikki’s hanging with Brian in her home studio, and they’re chatting about their upcoming shoot for Prime’s Thursday Night Football and Nikki’s writers' room which is filled with all the right enneagrams. While discussing art and creativity, Nikki shares that she can’t relate to some artists' need for expression—or lack thereof. Then, they dive into one of Nikki’s fave quizzes, the NY Times Regional Dialect Test, and answer it. They end up with a way better result than the Akinator (side note: the answer to that quiz was Cara Delevingne, who interviewed Nikki for Interview—cool, right?). In the Final Thought, Brian gives an honest review of Wicked, AND everyone is screaming over the latest shout out Nikki got.  Subscribe to Big Money Players Diamond on Apple Podcasts to get this episode ad-free, and get exclusive bonus content: https://apple.co/nikkiglaserpodcast  .
