I hate that Grace backpedaled the question about Gianmarco and Tovah getting married, easily the funniest moment in the episode especially with Russel’s blessing right after 😂
I got a corset at orchard street corsets. That man looked at me, asked me to put my hands on my waist, told me I was a 22 inch… And he was right and it fit perfectly and it’s outrageous he’s so good at his job.
I’ve been following Grace since the pandemic and I absolutely adore her style of comedy. Her and Jane Wickline are the reason I kept that app on my phone for so long 😂
I never picked Grace out as a Wisconsin girl but now that I know she is it makes soooo much sense. I clicked instantly. GianMarco and Grace?? My two faves. My dad is from wisconsin and I grew up going there frequently. Much love from KS
I'm so excited for this guest! She's soo soo funny and I'm a fellow syracuse person. But I agree, I gravitated towards Grace's comedy because she was willing to commit to the self deprecating bit. She's hilarious P.s. Gracie you didn't need to tell us you played softball
omg Grace and I had the same experience. I was in chorus all throughout and never had stage fright until 5th grade, when I got stage fright for a book report. And it never went away.
I feel ya. Mid high school for me. I’d been in choir, acting classes, theater productions, improv comedy. Then one day, and I can’t pin it down, debilitating stage fright. It’s awful. Sorry friend.
Glad I watched this yesterday. Not only was it a fun conversation but it also gave me the heads up that Gianmarco happened to be performing where I live that night (fun coincidence, never happens to me I'm always late to the party lol). Anyway it was my first time going to a live stand up show and it was so good! He is a very talented comedian and I hope I get the opportunity to see him live again because it was a blast!
i really love this 5:28 conversation because it summarizes my views and tastes on comedy. if a comedian refuses to laugh at themselves, they aren’t funny
I love grace. She's so naturally talented & confident. Her personality is contagious. Makes me like Gianmarco more for having her on podcast. Good job kind gentleman. 👍
It's so funny watching gianmarco learn about and react to so many new cultures with grace: 1) gen z, 2) growing up naked, 3) small town craft fairs, 4) the comfort in fat rolls 😂😂
I relate to Grace so much. Elementary school, I was everyone's friend. I wasn't afraid to speak up in class or talk to a new classmate. Then BAM puberty, and all of a sudden, no phone calls, no strangers, no raising my hand in class, no public speaking. NOTHING. JUST FEAR.
Soooo excited to hear Grace is working on a podcast. I LOVEDDD “We Didn’t Read It” but always thought the company held her back. AHHHH IM SO HYPE TO SEE WHAT SHES COOKING.
1:27:05 I really love the idea of grace just incorporating the shakes and how she feels inside into part of her bit and trying some live stuff! If she wants, I know she could make the nerves a very real, funny, relatable part of her routines. We’re all rooting for you, Grace!!!!❣️❣️❣️❣️✨
No no that’s not what is meant. That guy asks everyone to like make a stance, put theirs hand on their waist with the elbows out, and he can immeidately know what size corset and which type you need. Some people have longer or shorter torsos, or wider ribs even if they’re skiing, alternatively some chubbier people have much smaller hips or rib cages. He’s crazy good at his job.
I was a theatre kid and deep into theatre. I was performing and I had a long speech. The audience was just a few feet away. I forgot my line and could not find my way out of it and then someone from the audience said he forgot his line, which made it worse. I finally made it out. I made it through the rest of the play. The play was Murder in the Cathedral and we did the play in a cathedral
I feel like if you're designing your own things it's fair to go to a craft fair. If you're just printing something someone else made that's another thing completely
As a vendor, i say u should 100% give folks a little tip whenever you feel inclined. Just tell them you’re traveling and don’t have space to actually buy something but appreciate or want to support what they’re doing. B/c we have to lug everything with us including tents and tables and shit, vendors understand wanting to travel light. And since most are small business owners, little tips hit different
Whaaaaatt!?!! Not Grace? I fucking love her and American High College life etc. My faves just knowing each other makes my day - THIS…. This is so exciting !
Last time y'all talked about the music video on the pod it was January. I just got done watching that episode. Very funny to post it in winter and not wait
I like the overall point of the "This Has Gotta Stop." They did this with Biden too about "it was always his dream to be President" or whatever bullshit. And I 100% agree that Ariana Grande is already internationally mega-successful, it's not that big of a deal that once when she was 10 she wanted to be Glinda or whatever. I think what we should consider about Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, however, is that we need more powerful black women with all sorts of public faces of success: ballet, Broadway, Supreme Court, President, Speaker of the House, cabinet members, Department of Defense Secretary, Generals, CEOs, etc. etc. etc.

Saw Grace on the short and instantly clicked, never thought about these two crossing over and I am pleasantly surprised
Same I recently started a liking of Gianmarco and Grace so this feels really weird (in a good way)
Same!! I was so excited instantly. Love them both
I LOVE GRACE SO MUCHHH
Same. I’ve been following both for awhile so I know this video will be gold
Yes. We are all here and feel that comment 💯
Grace being so committed in her role as a podcast guest 😩
worlds are colliding, George is getting upset!
i was just about to say this...
And hosts! How does she do it? Always inspired by her commitment.
She's living her dream
Guys I cannot bloody believe you got Grace!! I screamed when I saw her face in the thumbnail. I cant wait to watch!!
Same! Will be watching this over my lunch today
I love that Grace is the celebrity like we're happy for gianmarco
“almost got the 6th” was such an unappreciated joke that fuckin killed me not even a minute into the episode
I don't get it, can you please explain!
Edit: Probably has to do with the Jan 6 storming of the Capitol I reckon?
And 'i guess I should stop' at 12.12. I wonder if they're nervous.
@@TheKillahKylayeah
TWO OF MY FAVOURITE INTERNET PEOPLE TOGETHER... WHATTTTTT!?
Wondering which one of the three are excluded in this, and pretending it’s not Russel
Poor Russel
NO LITERALLY LMAO these are the 2 people I watch the most 😭😭
Can't believe Gianmarco liked this comment lmao
i love the way grace's comedy dips into horror at times.
I always love episodes in the Tovah-sphere.
I’m now a Tovah supporter bc she’s right about Grace being amazing!! So happy she’s on the show ❤
oh yall made this just for me
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLYYY
Saaaame
And meeeee
Me toooooo
Tovah must be the greatest agent/girlfriend, she supports the performance of my two most favorite comedians out there
oh my god finally someone else have mentioned the joy of resting with your hands in your belly overhang. I feel seen. thank you Grace
I was doing it while reading this lol😢
That sounds so comfortable omg
31:32 The idea of Tovah arranging private fart videos for her clients is hilarious.
I hate that Grace backpedaled the question about Gianmarco and Tovah getting married, easily the funniest moment in the episode especially with Russel’s blessing right after 😂
Yeah, I loved that! 😂 So fucking funny, also such a stereotype 😂
Grace really committed to the role of Russel and Gianmarco!!
This podcast survives off of Tovahs clients. Bless you Tovah🩷
Her face when he said he couldn’t fart on demand! Oh, oh my, lol, my sides. The confusion. The bafflement. The fast blinking 🤣 she’s incredible
i let out an audible GASP when i saw the thumbnail. what a way to start the year i’m thrilled
I reacted quite negatively to "keep your shoes on" and quite neutraly to nude household. I think it's a majority female household thing
Shoes in the house 🤮🤮🤮
Outdoors shoes being worn indoors is messed up, once shoes have been worn outside they cease to be allowed in my home
Oh my god, Grace and Gianmarco? Two legends in one video??
I got a corset at orchard street corsets.
That man looked at me, asked me to put my hands on my waist, told me I was a 22 inch…
And he was right and it fit perfectly and it’s outrageous he’s so good at his job.
I’ve been following Grace since the pandemic and I absolutely adore her style of comedy. Her and Jane Wickline are the reason I kept that app on my phone for so long 😂
Gianmarco being so brave and inviting a real comedian for once 😢❤
The way my jaw dropped man
I never picked Grace out as a Wisconsin girl but now that I know she is it makes soooo much sense. I clicked instantly. GianMarco and Grace?? My two faves.
My dad is from wisconsin and I grew up going there frequently. Much love from KS
I didn’t either until 2 days ago when I saw she was wearing a Madison sweatshirt
it took me about 10 minutes to realize grace is grace from the shorts i watch almost daily, so weird to see her being a regular person lol
I'm still in shock!!!! Torah called her directly. I love this for her.
@mycatsnameiskaren8253 *Tovah
I'm so excited for this guest! She's soo soo funny and I'm a fellow syracuse person.
But I agree, I gravitated towards Grace's comedy because she was willing to commit to the self deprecating bit. She's hilarious
P.s. Gracie you didn't need to tell us you played softball

I don't mind the mental part of stage fright but it makes my voice shake so bad, I cant control it at all.
Glad I watched this yesterday. Not only was it a fun conversation but it also gave me the heads up that Gianmarco happened to be performing where I live that night (fun coincidence, never happens to me I'm always late to the party lol). Anyway it was my first time going to a live stand up show and it was so good! He is a very talented comedian and I hope I get the opportunity to see him live again because it was a blast!
i really love this 5:28 conversation because it summarizes my views and tastes on comedy. if a comedian refuses to laugh at themselves, they aren’t funny
1:10:40 THIS!!! i'm so tired of seeing cheaply-made, dropshipped, or ai-gen products at ANTIQUE STORES and boutiques and markets!!!
I've met Grace as we both have worked with American High, love her energy and happy to see these worlds colliding :]
Grace being a wisconsinite makes so much sense. Love her
I didn’t catch, where did she just move to? NY or LA?
@Mel_o1234 NYC I think?
Grace wanting to stay for the patreon took me out! This was so fun
I love grace. She's so naturally talented & confident. Her personality is contagious. Makes me like Gianmarco more for having her on podcast. Good job kind gentleman. 👍
Grace is honestly so damn funny! I need to have her do The Bald And The Beautiful podcast next! Please 🙏
that would so perfect 😂
NO FUCKING WAY. This podcast continues to surprise me with the guests IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS
It's so funny watching gianmarco learn about and react to so many new cultures with grace: 1) gen z, 2) growing up naked, 3) small town craft fairs, 4) the comfort in fat rolls 😂😂
You know i’d never found the time to listen to this but with Grace???? I will always make time for her she’s so funny
I rarely reply randomly on UA-cam but if you like Grace you might like the episodes with Caleb Hearon as a guest :)
@@beetleboyyyomg caleb is so insane i love him 😭😭😭😭
There are so so many good episodes of this podcast!
Omfg this crossover has already made my 2025
I relate to Grace so much. Elementary school, I was everyone's friend. I wasn't afraid to speak up in class or talk to a new classmate. Then BAM puberty, and all of a sudden, no phone calls, no strangers, no raising my hand in class, no public speaking. NOTHING. JUST FEAR.
Two of my favorite internet people together and gianmarco
I always watch youtube short versions of this podcast, this is the first episode im watching in full because of grace. Thank her
Same. I ran here when I saw she was on.
OMFG GRACE ON THE DOWNSIDE?!?! This is amazing!!!! Saving this for work tonight🎉🎉🎉🎉
I watched it.
To see that grace does the eyebrow thing naturally and not just as a bit is beautiful
Gianmarco being a half baked fin dom is everything to me. Being scouted for financial domination is so hilarious. Tbh that's some people's dream.
GM dabbled in light sex work from time to time
This is the best crossover I never expected. Please keep finding funny people and making longform content you are actively making my life better
Soooo excited to hear Grace is working on a podcast. I LOVEDDD “We Didn’t Read It” but always thought the company held her back. AHHHH IM SO HYPE TO SEE WHAT SHES COOKING.
1:27:05 I really love the idea of grace just incorporating the shakes and how she feels inside into part of her bit and trying some live stuff! If she wants, I know she could make the nerves a very real, funny, relatable part of her routines. We’re all rooting for you, Grace!!!!❣️❣️❣️❣️✨
Glad you guys got Grace on the show, first one I’ve seen and this is really good
58:50 hahahahahaha! this is absolutely what i wanted to hear two years into school! thank you for today's existential crisis about my future 😭
I never heard of Grace but what a great introduction. Wisconsin representin'!
Love seeing Grace in something longer than a short, shes amazing
I just saw a short of GRACE & Gianmarco and ran here!!!!!! I'm so excited to watch this!!!!
"Where is your waist?" LMAO
No no that’s not what is meant.
That guy asks everyone to like make a stance, put theirs hand on their waist with the elbows out, and he can immeidately know what size corset and which type you need. Some people have longer or shorter torsos, or wider ribs even if they’re skiing, alternatively some chubbier people have much smaller hips or rib cages.
He’s crazy good at his job.
I was a theatre kid and deep into theatre. I was performing and I had a long speech. The audience was just a few feet away. I forgot my line and could not find my way out of it and then someone from the audience said he forgot his line, which made it worse.
I finally made it out. I made it through the rest of the play. The play was Murder in the Cathedral and we did the play in a cathedral
Oh hell yes Grace is one of my favorite people on the internet rn
As someone who likes 3D printing, I HATE those people. I love 3D printing and designing my own stuff but those ppl are just trying to make money
I feel like if you're designing your own things it's fair to go to a craft fair. If you're just printing something someone else made that's another thing completely
This is a fantastic trio - please another episode with Grace!
What! You’ve got Grace on here. Love it!❤
a crossover i did not ever expect but you won’t catch me complaining
5:30 this really reminds me of caitlin reilly's mom going "your comedy makes you look ugly" (as told on dropout)
As a vendor, i say u should 100% give folks a little tip whenever you feel inclined. Just tell them you’re traveling and don’t have space to actually buy something but appreciate or want to support what they’re doing.
B/c we have to lug everything with us including tents and tables and shit, vendors understand wanting to travel light. And since most are small business owners, little tips hit different
NO WAY 😭😭😭😭 This is my Super Bowl
Whaaaaatt!?!! Not Grace? I fucking love her and American High College life etc. My faves just knowing each other makes my day - THIS…. This is so exciting !
amazing episode, im such a big fan of grace ive followed her for years!!
Oh wow! Grace is on here😮 This is incredible❤
OMG Graceee?! I clicked immediatelyyy
Last time y'all talked about the music video on the pod it was January. I just got done watching that episode. Very funny to post it in winter and not wait
She’s so right about the stomach toilet hold. I remember reading on the loo as a kid like that lmfaoooo
Omg I didn't expect Grace to be on here, such a delightful surprise!
I felt like I was taking a risk, I’ve never heard of Grace before, but this has been really fun already and I’m barely half way, very great guest. ❤💃🏻
Grace on the Downside is a great way to start 2025!
I am a huge fan of the downside and Ive never cackled so much.
The crossover nobody expected. I love this so much
OMG so excited to see Grace on this!!!
2:30 Russell and Grace laughing in tandem is everything to me
Went to go just check ticket prices for Portland and it's sold out! Hope you enjoy your next visit here and I hope to catch you next time!
Love this crossover. Thank the Gods for Tovah
💚 love grace crazy collab i didnt know i needed
thank you for starting our year this way☺️🫶🏻
love Grace! such a fun way to start the new year😸
All 3. Raw. Next question.
I wasn't expecting to see Grace here but I ain't complaining!
LOVE THIS COLLAB
WHAT OH MY GOD IM SO EXCITED TO WATCH
Grace's fart video story really took me out. Honestly, I hope she sells more one day because I need to hear another story like this from her. 😭😭😭
Grace and Gianmarco, it really is a happy new year
Yes. The crossover I needed. 😭🥰
I can totally inderstand Goanmarco & Russell’s idea of going through the filmo/discography of artists and not fully appreciating them ❤
I LOVE GRACE!!! ❤
I have been waiting for this episode since you promoted it.
I love Grace! So unexpected to see her here, amazing collab 😂❤
I loved Grace as a guest! I would love if you had her back in the future :D
Grace is such a queen and i hope she knows it
Happy New Year 🎉
Stay iconic, stay fabulous 💅
46:45 that joke went underappreciated 😂
I like the overall point of the "This Has Gotta Stop." They did this with Biden too about "it was always his dream to be President" or whatever bullshit.

Loved this episode!! Grace is a perfect guest
Hey Grace!! Stay warm out there from your fellow New Yorker
She's from Wisconsin.
Finally real news
This was so beautiful thank you
