Hey hotties, this week travel expert and walking NYC encyclopedia Johnny Murtaugh joins Eric on the podcast to tackle one of life’s most humbling milestones: getting laid off. Fun fact — it’s actually a blessing in disguise, and Eric is just thrilled unemployment finally cleared Johnny’s calendar so he could grace the show.

They also take a chaotic stroll down memory lane to their days at Miami of Ohio — yes, they both went there, and yes, they were both in the closet. Eric shares the most absurd story about how he accidentally joined two fraternities because he has a hard time saying no.

Other crucial topics include why straight men need gay friends if they ever want a shot with women. It’s part comedy, part therapy, part “please don’t quote us on this.” You’re welcome in advance.

This week on Take Me Off Speaker, Eric is joined by the one and only Savannah Sellers—NBC News anchor, certified Swiftie, and his longtime partner-in-crime since their days running around 30 Rock in matching blazers, pretending they had any real authority (they didn’t).

They reminisce about the chaos of the Page Program, the moments that launched their careers (and mild trauma), and then deep-dive into their shared obsession: Taylor Swift. Savannah breaks down how Taylor is the ultimate mastermind—literally playing 4D chess with her career while the rest of us are out here forgetting our own birthdays. If you thought the album rollouts were random, think again. Taylor is thinking years ahead, and Savannah has the theories to prove it.

And yes—Eric tells the very real story of how he ended up crashing Savannah’s honeymoon. No, she did not invite him. It’s nostalgic, hilarious, slightly unhinged, and full of the kind of chaos only Eric and Savannah can bring.

Tune in now—and maybe think twice before telling Eric where you're vacationing.

Hey beauties! The past week didn’t feel real. We went from a whirlwind trip in the South of France straight into the madness of the Mayhem Ball — which, surprisingly, turned out to be the most effective jet lag cure out there.

Eric talks about working with Lady Gaga at SNL and how her music has somehow narrated every major (and minor) life event. It’s travel recaps, pop culture reflections, and a few too-honest stories you probably won’t hear anywhere else.
