The Nikki Glaser Podcast

The moment’s finally here—and Nikki is thrilled with how her night went hosting the 2025 Golden Globes. She’s hanging with her writing team, Brian Frange and Sean O’Connor, plus her producer (and boyfriend) Chris Convy. It legit feels like every headline is straight out of their Google Doc. Nikki spills the tea on what it was like delivering her monologue, and Brian and Sean dish on who in the room was living for her jokes. They’re pretty sure Ralph Fiennes is officially a Bestie now. Plus, there’s all the behind-the-scenes stuff—like who came to wish Nikki good luck and almost made two of her writers pass out, who made her feel super safe, and all the iconic details about the skit of the night: Pope-ular! In the Final Thought, the guys want Nikki to throw her own after-party next time, and she’s all in on the theme they suggest.

Brian’s suggesting everyone set a “reverse resolution” for 2025, basically, his fail-safe method to avoid failure. Nikki’s wants to cut out gossiping this year (which, let’s be real, sounds like a solid goal). The Golden Globes are this Sunday, and Nikki is feeling confident about her prep... No, she doesn't need more time, that would definitely just make things worse. Plus, she got a sweet DM from one of the presenters. Brian’s also trying to gossip less, but it’s so hard, especially after getting a ton of likes on a comment he made.

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.

Nikki and Brian have been talking smack all morning, so of course, it spills over into the pod. Brian gives his somewhat controversial take on the latest in entertainment, and Nikki’s here for it. Nikki’s been obsessed with English Teacher and is dying for more shows like it. She got legit excited when a friend told her she's on Brad Pitt's radar.

Obviously, Nikki’s been watching a ton of movies in prep for hosting the Golden Globes, and it’s made her realize that no one actually accidentally stumbles into a kiss like they do in rom-coms. Also, My Old Ass is amazing on many levels. Nikki and Julie had a solid laugh over an Alzheimer’s commercial and really like the Martha doc.

Julie Glaser is sitting in today. Nikki makes the case for why Besties wouldn’t want her to have high self-esteem—and why that actually benefits her career. Nikki’s nominated for a Grammy, and Brian is feeling confident she'll win this one. She thinks it’s all a bit of a joke, but what’s not funny is the person who totally stone-faced her. Julie’s still processing the first few times Nikki got in trouble for dropping curse words. Julie’s lungs are looking amazing now that she’s 15 years smoke-free. It really hits different when your health takes a turn for the worse—Julie didn’t even consider this when she was younger. Brian opens up about the one thing that helped him overcome IBS as a kid.

Nikki could really use a massage, but she's not trying to get mildly assaulted, thanks. Brian is still low-key confused about his Sting concert in Vegas and almost getting into a fight. Nikki is over being upset about the election, but she’s not going to stop being disappointed deep down in her soul. Thankfully, Chris is back in town, so it's time for some couch dates. But seriously, don't invite Nikki to a one-on-one date, make her the third or fifth. Gen Z Em has definitely rubbed off on how Nikki texts.

This episode was recorded on Election Day. Nikki and Brian decide to playfully speculate about the possible outcomes of the election. They realize that if Trump is elected, the finale of Dinosaurs the sitcom might just be how the world ends. Both of them lost something personal at SoFi Stadium over the weekend, but it doesn’t bother them too much. They also imagine what a Kamala win would look like. Nikki was so anxious on election eve that she crashed at her parents’ house. While there, her mom showed her a missed connection, and Nikki had to confront her dad about accepting both her and her mom’s interrupting ways. Nikki recently had an encounter with someone who doesn’t like her—too bad for them, because Nikki started a TikTok trend, and it involved a cast member of Hamilton. In the Final Thought, Nikki dishes on a Joan Rivers tribute she’s involved with and what she hopes to get out of it.

Full disclosure: We recorded this episode on Monday! Don’t even mention kids with migraines or bring any itchy animals around Nikki—it’s too much to deal with. During a weekend full of emotional chaos, Nikki grabbed Ahri Findling’s TENS machine and cranked it to 11. While waiting in line to vote early, she somehow made both an enemy and a friend. And at Taylor Swift’s final American tour date, she made even more friends—but also gained a few more enemies. In the Final Thought, Nikki reflects on how she feels about the tour wrapping up and where she plans to shift her focus next.

Nikki's hanging out with her BFF and pod bestie, Anya Marina. With her new album in tow, ASTEROID, Anya is sparking some deep conversations. Nikki and Anya are not fond of the feeling of waiting, whether it's about what will happen with the planet, the election, or the reception of an album. Nikki loves football because it’s fast paced. After a whirlwind weekend, she has a major epiphany about her material, especially after performing for an audience that wasn’t really feeling her.

Nikki and Brian have those moments they wish they could “Eternal Sunshine” away and others they want to remember forever. After binging on comments, Brian’s over it and vows to stop. He asks Nikki about picking up a new habit to help with his anxiety. There’s definitely an art to secretly recording for the sake of art instead of just for content. Brian remembers a time he wishes he’d caught on tape when Nikki totally crushed it at a game of Catchphrase. Nikki is all about that butterfly feeling at the start of a new relationship; nothing beats the realization that you’re with the right person. She’s got a point about making friends with the opposite sex while in a relationship. And in the Final Thought, Brian shares the details of his experience seeing Billy Joel.

Nikki is not a fan of the early morning darkness; it only makes her feel less safe while walking Goldie. Honestly, her busy schedule has her kinda wishing she'd get attacked (Julie, this is a joke-she doesn't really want this). Brian, who is basically the show's Wikipedia, explains why he encouraged his wife to stop using a popular phrase. This reminds Nikki of a word that sounds like all the curses combined. Please do not tell Nikki how she did at an audition. However, do tell her when she rightly gets excited over a football play. So many amazing things happened to her friends this weekend, and she loved just being a spectator. She gives her take on keeping jealousy in check, and in her Final Thought, she talks about bouncing around at the Taylor Swift show, thanks to some important peeps.

Nikki’s life is a total whirlwind right now, so we’re dropping just one pod this week—and it’s a juicy one with Brian Frange, Sean O’Conner, and Andrew Collin in the studio! Nikki realizes they’re basically the “four husbands.” Andrew’s just days away from his wedding when he finds out his venue got blown away by Hurricane Milton, yikes! Now Nikki’s on the hunt for a house with zero trees because, tornadoes. On the road this weekend, Nikki and Ahri Findling made up their own ‘Hacks’ scenario. Then in studio they all point out how the show doesn't truly capture the life of a stand up. The late night wars were so fun, they reminisce about Jay Leno's Headlines vs Conan O’Brien's Actual Items, leading to major Conan stanning and laughter over his best bits. Nikki wants to know what subjects everyone feels ashamed about not knowing. Andrew admits that he is super nervous for his wedding vows, but gets some hype from the room. In the Final Thought, they share funny stories about discovering their bodies back in the day and the mementos left behind.
