Put your best face forward tonight as we embrace uncertainty, court spontaneity, and make out with impulsivity. Meet a luckless karaoke wallflower, an HR rep with big, big feelings, and someone whose never heard of a capybara. Will the high-risk, high-reward path be strewn with rose petals? Or will Josie fumble at the finish line?

Our callers this week included the talents of Shane Salk, Matt Mundy, Danielle Cohn and Sarah Allyn.

Our story editor is Aliza Brugger. Executive produced by Good Story Guild. Follow us @goodstoryguild on Instagram or join our Discord!

Featured promotion: Divorce Ranch is now out. Check out the new limited series from Good Story Guild wherever you listen.

Josie’s Lonely Hearts Club is a semi-improvised audio drama set in the studio of New Mexico’s 3rd-best romantic advice call-in show. On-air, listeners eavesdrop as Josie (Rachel Music, How Do They Bone?) squares off against top improvisers and her engineer Frank (Maximilian Clark, Superhuman Public Radio). Each episode’s off-air vignettes chart her journey from melancholy Joanne Holtzinger to nationally syndicated sensation Josie Heller. What results is an often hilarious and surprisingly human show exploring the risks we idiots take every time we fall in or out of love.

Josie’s Lonely Hearts Club is brought to you by the Good Story Guild. Keep track of us on Instagram @goodstoryguild and join our Discord. If you enjoyed the show, consider leaving a rating and/or review on your preferred podcast listening platform. Nighty night, cuties.
