You'll Never Guess with Natalie Noack

Episode 50 is coming up so soon! Natalie wants to do something special for it, but she doesn't know what yet. It will definitely NOT be a collection of "memorable moments over the past 50 episodes" because that would be painful. Her new glasses arrived way faster than expected; thank you, Warby Parker! Natalie doesn't care if people wear the same things as her because it's fun to match. Having fans (of the ...

The Baldwins' new reality show doesn't really have a plot... but neither does this podcast. Instagram told Natalie she had new DMs... but they were from MARCH. Please accept her sincerest apologies. Natalie might want to add more segments to the pod, just to keep it fresh. Today's news story is about a woman who went to great depths for love. Natalie thinks it's an advantage to be a woman in comedy because there...

Natalie is in NYC's financial district, doing absolutely nothing financial. The finance bros, however, are crunching those numbers. If matcha lattes make her happy, should she just keep buying them and stop judging herself for it? Natalie wishes she had an easier time with things that "should" be easy. A listener sent in a bunch of "would you rather" questions, and Natalie answers them on today's pod!

When Natalie's space is messy, it means her brain is messy too. Her time management skills are lacking today, but she's trying her best. Long-distance running is great, but can it become dangerous? (Yes, it can.) Natalie puts on her science cap as she tries to explain why running too much is definitely not healthy. She answers a question from a listener about how to recover from a sub-par stand-up performance. Plus, she g...

Natalie received a suspicious text, but she doesn't want to be hacked. She's having stress dreams that involve missing teeth and a stolen backpack. What does it all mean? She unpacks it on the pod. Natalie loves her autonomy and hates when someone threatens it! The Track & Field World Championships are on this week, and she couldn't be happier. Natalie has a list of fears and does not want to add elevators to it....

The news is heavy, and the bottom line is that things need to change, because Natalie wants us all to feel safe in this world. She also wants the pod to be a respite from what's going on. Natalie loves the video of the guy playing "My Heart Will Go On" on the recorder. She has her own recorder story that involves her parents' divorce and a not-so-empathetic music teacher. Does the podcast need an actual theme so...

Natalie is trying to practice what she preaches; she's looking at a recent confrontation as an opportunity, and not a setback. She loves drama-free friendships (shoutout to Amber). If you don't meet your best friends on the first day of college, it's okay! Natalie's building is having a board meeting, and she kind of wants to go to it because she has some feedback. She is great at quitting things "cold turk...

Natalie wishes she knew more about what's going on today in the music world. Maybe watching the VMAs will help? (Spoiler alert: it did not.) She got some new "goodbye stress" gummies, and she really hopes they'll work. There are some seemingly fun things going on in NYC, but how fun are they actually? Natalie tries to be vague while addressing a difficult situation regarding someone in her life. She might need t...

It's Friday, and all Natalie can think about is Uber Eats. She has a hot dentist, and his office is great with communication. Natalie's gynecologist, on the other hand, never tells her when to come in. Natalie is trying to work her way around the system because needs to get her meds refilled. Wish her luck. Switching to T-Mobile has been quite a chore... and her phone has to work because she is expecting calls from import...

Natalie is back after the holiday weekend, feeling refreshed and ready for the pod. Natalie's dad is the special guest on today's episode. While out and about in NYC, they discuss why jeans shopping is so complicated. He saw her do stand-up this weekend, so listen to hear his review! Natalie was an inquisitive child, and always wanted to know why people did things. Her dad talks about the importance of following your natu...

Natalie is way too caffeinated to podcast, but here she is... podcasting. Thanksgiving food is better the next day, but matcha lattes are not. Natalie needs to pick out a shirt because walking to dinner topless is not an option. Speaking of shirts, she is very practical when it comes to buying clothes. Natalie's dad is in town, and he's going to her stand-up show this weekend! They had a fun day out and about in NYC. Havi...

Natalie is podcasting from the streets of NYC! She discusses her feelings about moms who force their kids to be in TikTok videos, and why some stores are nothing but scams. Pumpkin spice is back, and Natalie probably won't be partaking because she thinks pumpkin spice lattes taste like candles. She doesn't make New Year's resolutions, but she does pick a word (or two or three) to focus on for the year. Taylor and Tra...

The podcast hosting site is down, but Natalie doesn't want to call it out because it's actually great. She went for a run over the weekend, and things went downhill very quickly. It's okay though, because she has a rolling desk chair and a Swiffer. Natalie believes that everything happens for a reason. Do you? Not being able to walk means there's no excuse for not writing new material. So, that's what she h...

Natalie is gearing up for the Turkey Trot 5K in November, and she spent the morning nerding out on running content. She doesn't really care about other sports, but she'll watch people run in circles for hours. Does anyone have a job anymore? Probably not. We'll all be replaced by AI soon anyway. If you don't want kids, and people give you a hard time about it, just tell them you care deeply about overpopulation....

Natalie's "radio voice" is back in action this morning. She is trying to figure out what to wear because it's too warm for a sweater, but too cold for a tank top. Speaking of which, she recently saw a TikTok about "9/11 weather." Natalie is NOT a scroller on social media; she goes in, searches for what she wants, and then gets the hell out of there. Monday's depression has melted away, which is su...

It's Monday and Natalie is fighting a bout of depression. The pod is helping her through, and she's trying to stay optimistic. But everyone gets depressed, right? Natalie is trying to figure out a new opening line for her stand-up set, and she talks through a few options. She answers a question from a listener about what her dream life would be if show business wasn't an option. Keep sending in your questions, becaus...

When a person becomes restless, they do one of two things: move every piece of furniture in their home, or dye their hair. Natalie doesn't have the energy to move her furniture, but she's thinking about it. She discusses her biggest hair fails, and vows to never make the same mistakes again. We all have the same amount of time in a day as Taylor Swift, and that makes Natalie feel like she has accomplished absolutely nothi...

Going off on tangents is what this podcast is all about, and Natalie is embracing it. This is the first time she has spoken all day, so her "radio voice" is in full effect. She's been frustrated with her hair lately, but maybe she's just using the wrong products. In other news, Natalie has a special talent for assembling complicated pieces of furniture. She has strong opinions on crowd work in stand-up, and she ...

It's Monday, and it's gonna be a great week. Natalie is having a pillow problem, and she needs to tell you about it. She is a sensitive lady, and she's trying to see the positive side of that, which can be difficult. She was tasked by her therapist to write down her inner judgements, and man, oh man, has it been eye-opening. A clean space = a clear mind, so clean your apartment! Natalie is impressed by people who pos...
