Our Editor's Take

Tig Notaro, Mae Martin, and Fortune Feimster host the comedy podcast Handsome. The trio sits down each week for a funny discussion topic submitted by a friend. The three comedians answer diverse queries, all with very amusing results.

On each podcast episode, the hosts respond to one question from an acquaintance. These include fellow actors and comedians. The topics discussed are random and wide-ranging. Elliot Page asks the hosts if they believe in ghosts. Sarah Silverman quizzes them on their hygiene habits. Lance Bass asks if they'd like to meet their clones. Nina West asks the hosts to explain their creative processes. Kenan Thompson wants to know about their thoughts on the glass ceiling. Guests can submit any question. The stranger the question, the better.

Throughout the podcast, the discussion is hilarious and amusing. The comedians answer questions with the same entertaining banter they bring to their stand-up shows. The discussion is candid and spontaneous. Often, the conversation veers off-topic. However, these quirky moments only add to the podcast's success.

The hosts are well-established comedians and performers. Tig found success with her comedy shows Tig Notaro: Boyish Girl Interrupted and Happy To Be Here. Mae wrote and starred in the Netflix comedy series Feel Good. Fortune hosts the comedy podcast Sincerely Fortune and has performed stand-up for almost two decades. Their collective comedy experience makes them the ideal hosts for Handsome. Their discussion is funny, intelligent, and effortless.

For listeners who enjoy eccentric comedy, Handsome is an excellent listen. The podcast releases new episodes approximately once a week. Each episode is around an hour long.
