About this listen

Austin Anderson has been doing stand-up since 2001. He never wanted to start a podcast. He just wanted to be funny and mysterious, like God intended. But then a high-level booker broke his heart and said, “If you want to keep doing stand-up, you need a podcast.” And so, against his will, and with great reluctance... this is: The Austin Anderson Show.

  • Analyzing Faces, Saudi Comedy Controversy, Trump & the Nobel Peace Prize | Ep. 36
    Oct 9 2025

    In this episode, Austin dives into a late-night obsession with a doctor who analyzes the faces of celebrities like Ozzy Osbourne, Hulk Hogan, Jim Carrey, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk, uncovering what your eyes and expressions might reveal about your health and your life. From there, the conversation turns to the bizarre and dangerous drug trend known as “Bluetoothing” in South Africa, before shifting into a rant about why slot machines in gas stations are an abomination.


    Austin also explores the controversy around comedians performing in Saudi Arabia, where free speech is heavily restricted and satire is punished with shocking severity. The episode then takes on Donald Trump’s push for the Nobel Peace Prize, touching on biblical prophecy and world politics, and wraps up with the strange TikTok saga of the “CCU Pisser.”

  • Blockbuster, Husker Hand Signs, & Worst Comic Alive | Ep. 35
    Oct 8 2025

    Austin Anderson is back with another off-the-rails episode of The Austin Anderson Show. Today he revisits his glory days working at Blockbuster where a wig and some teenage Coolio-inspired dreadlocks cost him his job. From there, Austin spirals into the nostalgia of King of Queens, the absurdity of fat-guy sitcom tropes, and Taylor Swift being accused of everything from white supremacy to turning America’s youth into sluts.


    It doesn’t stop there. Bert Kreischer and Tom Segura’s bizarre OnlyFans situation and Austin reminds the world that he—not Brendan Schaub—is the officially certified “Worst Standup Comic of All Time” (title courtesy of Piers Morgan.)

  • Tic Tacs, Taylor Swift, & 90-Year-Old Cocaine Cowboys | Ep. 34
    Oct 7 2025

    It’s a Tuesday morning and Austin’s covering it all: bribing his kid with $3 that won’t even buy Tic Tacs anymore, breaking down the internet’s meltdown over Taylor Swift’s latest album being accused of everything from white supremacy to eugenics, Whoopi Goldberg suggesting people “tan until you look Mexican,” a forklift driver who won the lottery and nearly partied himself into the grave, and the rise of “silver snorters”—elderly folks hitting cocaine like it’s spring break in Boca Raton.
