Your Mom's House is a comedy podcast hosted by married comedians Tom Segura and Christina Pazsitzky. The podcast was started in 2010 and covers a wide range of topics such as ongoing events, comedy, and the daily life of the two co-hosts—interspersed with toilet humor, running jokes, and commentary on unusual or shocking internet videos. The comedians typically stay away from political discussions.[1] Additionally YMH Studios produces a number of successful podcasts within their network including 2 Bears 1 Cave and Dr. Drew After Dark, as well as live, pay-per-view events.

History[]

Segura and Pazsitzky originally started the podcast through the Deathsquad Network, and produced by Brian Redban.[2] Tom and Christina mention in a 2014 Vice article that Joe Rogan had encouraged them to start a podcast.[1] After 40 episodes they started producing the show themselves with the help of producer Nadav Itzkowitz (since nicknamed Blueban).

In 2012, Your Mom's House was chosen as a finalist in the Best Comedy category at the first annual Stitcher Awards, along with Smodcast, The Adam Carolla Show, The Joe Rogan Experience, The Nerdist, and WTF with Marc Maron.[3]

YMH Studios has also produced a number of other podcasts, including 2 Bears 1 Cave (hosted by Segura and Bert Kreischer), Dr. Drew After Dark (hosted by Drew Pinsky), Tom Segura en Español (a Spanish podcast hosted by Tom Segura), Where My Mom's At (hosted by Pazsitzky), and Tom Talks (a solo, interview driven podcast with Segura).[4] The HoneyDew (hosted by Ryan Sickler) was previously produced at YMH Studios before separating in summer 2020.[5] Beginning in fall of 2020 the studio began the new podcast Roach Motel hosted by Josh Potter, however this show was quickly re-named The Josh Potter Show after only seven episodes due to a copyright dispute.[6]

During the COVID-19 pandemic YMH Studios began producing live, pay-per-view shows beginning with Your Mom's House Live & Uncensored on August 14, 2020. To date the studio has produced three live shows for 2 Bears 1 Cave (including a Big Game event with NFL Hall of Famer Warren Sapp), and seven for Your Mom's House.[7] The producers have confirmed the studio will move to Austin, Texas in 2021.

Guests[]

Episodes often feature prominent guests from the world of entertainment and pop culture, notably fellow stand-up comedians. Recent episodes have included such comedians as Hasan Minhaj, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Josh Wolf, Pauly Shore, Steve Byrne, Chris Distefano, Duncan Trussell, Kevin Nealon, and Fortune Feimster.

The show has branched out to non-comedian guests including musical artists like Big Daddy Kane, Brendon Urie, and Too Short; actors including Rob Iler, Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Alyssa Milano, and Elizabeth Lail; celebrity personalities like Cesar Millan and Rhett & Link, and adult actresses Alexis Fawx and Kate Kennedy.[8]

Often the podcast will feature live calls to Tom's dad, affectionately called Top Dog, and mom Charo, as long as she can find time from her many games of Bridge. The YMH staff includes Nadav Itzkowitz, Enny Ai, Chris Larson, Baby Zolo, and others, who make regular appearances working in the sound booth.

2 Bears 1 Cave has had guest hosts due to either Bert touring, or when Tom was injured in a basketball dunking challenge.[9] Guest hosts thus far have been YMH team members Christina P and Dr. Drew, comedians Ryan Sickler, Tim Dillon, Whitney Cummings, Bobby Lee, and Bert's wife LeeAnn Kreischer.

Fandom[]

The show's format mostly consists of Tom and Christina talking about and commenting on various videos and clips which are acquired through YouTube, TikTok, fan submission, etc. Through this format, the hosts and the fans of the show commonly use quotes to create a lingo which is used throughout the podcast. Some common phrases from the show include: "high and tight", "cool guy", "cool guy club", "try it out", "good morning, Julia", "full trottle", "ta ta there, retard". Along with these quotations, Pazsitzky and Segura occasionally refer to each other as "Jeans" which stemmed from calling each other "mommy" and "mom jeans", and they refer fans of the show as "mommies" as a reference to the title of the show. It is common for fans of the show to use this lingo when referring to the show on social media.

Starting in 2019, fans of the show commonly posted comments on the Instagram page of singer/songwriter Garth Brooks, which was referred to as the "Garth Brooks Instagram Takeover", leading to a restriction of Tom Segura's comments on Garth's Instagram page.[10] The comments used the lingo of the show and commonly asked Brooks questions about where he was keeping the bodies. This line of questioning originated from host Tom Segura jokingly calling the singer "insane" and a "serial killer" in numerous episodes.[11]

Most episodes feature original music from fans that often incorporate samples from the videos played on the show.
