  • Jo Jo with Levi Friedman
    Apr 28 2025

    Folksy diner worker Jo Jo remains bummed that his boss won't invite him into the walk-in freezer to make out in a circle with the rest of his coworkers. But the idea that a Sigmund Fraud like Ian Herrin would be able to help him is more absurd than thinking White Lotus season 3 would end any way but darkly and tragically! Get out of there, Jo Jo, before Ian follows you to work and does something regrettable!

  • Gerald Sanders with Matt Mack
    Mar 31 2025

    Gerald Sanders is a man who has struggled to be known as good at anything. But excelling to much at his most recent hobby has not fully been the success story he had hoped for. And with a Sigmund Fraud like Ian Herrin as his therapist, Gerald might be doomed to violence and vigilantism simply because he's not getting the therapeutic perspective he so desperately needs. Get out of there, Gerald, RETREAT!!





    Ah, now you must be the opposite of all thumbs, because you've found the best part of the episode description! The part where I tell you all about the wonderful actor and improviser Matt Mack.

  • Brittany with David Armstrong
    Feb 28 2025

    Brittany sounds like a pretty typical teen. She's in Model UN, loves her phone, and can't help but be real (thanks in part to a particular application on said phone). But with a Sigmund Fraud like Ian Herrin as her therapist, Brittany is given almost no time at all to discuss whatever her struggles might be! Like, therapy shouldn't be sex education for the THERAPIST, AGAIN! Get out of there, Brittany! Scared emoji shocked emoji sweating emoji!!



    Ah, you must be super fire emoji, because you've found the best part of the episode description!

  • Piccolo with Vince White
    Jan 27 2025

    Green alien and a superior being well trained in martial arts Piccolo arrives in Ian's office space after having left a hole in his roof in his last session. And yet, as weird of an entity as Piccolo seems to be, it's not at all a surprise that Ian is like, way weirder right? If Ian is an example of humanity, maybe Piccolo should consider ending the universe!




    Ah, you must be capable of finding all seven Dragon Balls, because you've also found the best part of the episode description! The part where I get to tell you about the tremendously talented improviser and podcast host Vince White of the Kame House Party podcast and Shonen Chumps series of live shows and podcast.

  • Ian Herrin with Ian Herrin (ft. John Shepard returning as Santa)
    Dec 30 2024

    Another filthy Christmas therapy spectacular with Santa turning the tables to provide his annual therapeutic advice proves once again Ian Herrin should not only not be touched with a ten and a half foot pole but is also a real Sigmund Fraud. Santa's drug use certainly doesn't help keep things on the rails as he issues truly awful advice to his apparent frenemy. Put him on your naughty list, Santa!!




    Ho Ho Ho, Merry (Belated) Christmas, and you've found the best part of the episode description! The part where I tell you about my wonderful friend the comedian and actor John Shepard of the hit sketch team Both Hands.

  • Peter Dammond with Brian Gurien
    Oct 28 2024

    Peter Dammond is a main experiencing blackouts and lost time. This can be a very dangerous life circumstance to navigate, but perhaps even more dangerous is choosing that real Sigmund Fraud of a therapist Ian Herrin to try and resolve this sensitive issue! Anybody would be a better therapist than he is!! Especially Miami Heat head coach Eric Spoelstra!




    Ah, you seem like someone with a disciplined control over your inner demon, because you've found the best part of the episode description! The part where I get to tell you all about my wonderful friend the hilarious actor, writer and performer Brian Gurien!

  • Webster A. Boob with Jonathan Lee-Rey
    Sep 30 2024

    Webster A. Boob has been sent by his parents to see a therapist to help him overcome the obvious obstacles he faces within his loving romantic relationship. But because they've unfortunately employed the services of that real Sigmund Fraud Ian Herrin, Webster is much less inclined to get the real help he needs. Don't listen to how Ian defines sex or really any of the other dumb things he says, Webster! I can't say you're thriving on your own, but you certainly would be better without this advice!




    Ah, your parents must approve of your relationship because you've found the best part of the episode description! The part where I get to tell you all about the tremendously talented improviser, actor, and teacher Jonathan Lee-Rey.

  • Bill Clinton with Jerry Burgos
    Aug 28 2024

    Bill Clinton (not that one) is having issues with erectile dysfunction. And for some reason, this is the patient that real Sigmund Fraud of a therapist Ian Herrin decides he's willing to leave the confines of his office space to conduct a house call?!? Bill, it is not normal for a therapist to spend half the session remarking upon things in your private home! And also, you sound like maybe you have a real medical issue that is beyond the bounds of mental health! Ian will not help you he will only lead you to seedier and seedier topics!!





    Alright, alright, alright look who went the full McConaughey and found the best part of the episode description! The part where I get to tell you all about the actor, director, improviser, magician, mr.-do-everything that is my dear friend Jerry Burgos!!! You can catch Jerry playing with his Boogie Manja sketch team The Right Stuff monthly on Wednesdays at the People's Improv Theater!
