Derrick Kosinski & Scott Yager are joined by Johnny Bananas, Nany Gonzalez, Katie Cooley, Mark Long, Jonna Stephens, Amber Borzotra and more LIVE FROM NASHVILLE!

This show was recorded at City Winery on Saturday, November 22nd 2025.

**This is the full audio from our NASHVILLE LIVE SHOW featuring Bananas, Nany, Mark, Jonna, Amber, Katie and some surprise guests. One of those surprise guests is Davis, who elaborates on the video that was circulating earlier this year. Just a warning that this part does get a bit heavy in regards to religious subject matter, particularly for those who might be struggling with their sexual identity or could be sensitive to someone who is. Just fair warning about that part, which we are going to leave in.
