Episode 101 - Caitlin Comeskey
This week we sat down with someone who’s doing for funny poker content what we’re trying to do for fun poker games — the one and only Caitlin Comeskey.
And buckle up… because this episode starts with Art butchering the intro, devolves into a table full of losers from our Venetian takeover, and somehow ends with ketamine stories, burlesque confessions, the Jack-4 sketch that blew her up, and why PokerStars literally called her out of the blue to sign her.
In this episode we get into:
- 🔥 Her viral “Jack-4” moment — how an impulsive Halloween wig run basically changed her life
- 🔥 Playing No Gamble No Future with Stapes & Justin… and saying jokes they couldn’t air
- 🔥 Why she was a theatre-kid-turned-NYU-acting-major-turned-burlesque-host-turned-Texas-poker-DJ
- 🔥 The surprising way she met her husband (shoutout to Colleen 5/10/25)
- 🔥 The early Texas poker boom and what the games were REALLY like back then
- 🔥 Getting signed by PokerStars — and why it didn’t feel real at first
- 🔥 Her thoughts on ladies events, the Santa Claus incident, and why some players desperately need a “vibe check”
- 🔥 Mixed games, Raz pain, Big O chaos, and why everyone in poker is too healthy now
- 🔥 The exact moment she decided to bet on content instead of cash games
- 🔥 What’s next for Caitlin — streaming, comedy, Jersey life, and forcing us into a TikTok dance
We also talk a lot about Vegas self-loathing, Greyhounds, the death of degeneracy in tournament poker, and why Justin keeps ending up at Five Guys after busting events.
If you like poker with personality — not the silent-hoodie GTO Olympics — this one’s for you.
