Season Two finale. You better listen all the way to the end on this one, cuties. After a heaping helping of heartache, resident tough cookie Josie gives us a peak of that gooey, nougaty center. Joanne drops a few truths of her own. Along the way, we encounter a crooner in khakis (and a time loop), comfort a gal in love with a slob, and try to piece together a very, very dysfunctional proposal. If time allows, we might even hear from a return caller...
Mark your calendars for July 3rd when we come hurtling back for Season Three! If you have ever wanted Josie to solve a quandary of the heart from YOUR life, just record her a voice memo and send that lil' beauty on over to audio@goodstoryguild.co - Josie might just read it on air.
Our callers included the talents of Shane Salk, Matt Mundy, Danielle Cohn and Carla Lerner Montero. Our story editor is Aliza Brugger.
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.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
