Take Your Shoes Off
Rick Glassman
Hi, I'm Rick Glassman, and I'm a goofy guy and a cute boy. As a kid, I had debilitating OCD.

Hi, I'm Rick Glassman, and I'm a goofy guy and a cute boy. As a kid, I had debilitating OCD. I still have a lot of “things.” The title of my podcast “Take Your Shoes Off” is a microcosm of my need for control and order in a world that... keeps their shoes on.

I created this podcast to showcase a more serious side, as I have conversations with some of the funniest and most interesting people in the world. I’ve learned the language of comedy in an attempt to survive this shoes-on world, so of course there will be some goofs and spoofs, but think of this podcast as you being a fly on the wall, as opposed to being an audience member in a theatre.

Please, take your shoes off, and enjoy!

A warm welcome on the forth night of #8NightsofTYSO to Esther Povitsky! The stand up comedian and actress (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Dollface, Alone Together) is back for the second time to rehash the Bang Up!, Bang Down! Theory with Rick. Like her first visit they slip into their teasing dynamic and navigate another neighbor interrupted episode. Esther, a self professed bad gift receiver, reacts to Rick's somewhat generous holiday presents (#JustinTimberlake much?). We’re half way through the holiday series and wanted to thank everyone that’s joined in to watch! Message @shoesoffpod on instagram with any questions or comments for Rick to see! Get the new TYSO shirt here! Produced by: Rick Glassman & George Krikes Sound & Mixed by: George Krikes Casey Abrams on VOCALS and BASS, Jacob Scesney on SAX, and Rick Glassman on KEYS.
