About Episode Comedian Atsuko Okatsuka joins Sam to talk about her new special “Father” and why in her relationship she is “father” and her husband is “mother.” They talk about recalibrating your goals once you’ve reached them, which is what Atsuko had to do after accomplishing her only childhood goal of working at an ice cream parlor. They discuss Atsuko being unknowingly undocumented as a child after her grandmother brought her to Los Angeles, and why they both prefer the company of senior citizens. They talk about the decision to pivot her comedy from hobby to career, and why she only started making choices recently. Atsuko tells Sam about the online shows she does with other comedians who are children of moms with schizophrenia, how she thinks it takes ten years to find your voice in comedy, and why Sam is the kind of adult Atsuko hopes to be.  Keep up with Samantha Bee @realsambee on Instagram and X.

About Episode Desi Lydic tackles Trump’s politicized Fort Bragg rally, which screened soldiers for loyalty and waist size. Plus, Trump plans a $45 million military parade for his birthday, and Ronny Chieng is pumped to sit courtside at a display of America’s military might. Corporate America has been suspiciously quiet this Pride Month due to fear of backlash from the Trump administration. Desi Lydic and Troy Iwata discuss the current muted tones of Pride Month, and how the corporations will have to prove themselves when the pendulum swings back to the gays. Comedian Atsuko Okatsuka talks to Desi about her new Hulu stand-up special, “Father,” including how her lack of housework partly inspired the title, as well as the intentional juxtaposition of her colorful clothes and set with the deeply personal stories she mines for levity. Okatsuka also shares how her Grandma Li was able to embrace her silliness later in life through their viral videos, and she explores alternate hairstyles if she were to ever change her signature bowl cut.
