Patrick and Ross fire up the mics late at night for a looser, spicier edition of the pod. They riff on everything from their daughter’s new kindergarten routines (homework packets already?!) to class, fashion, and political hypocrisy. The conversation veers into ADHD, social media overload, MAGA neighbors, and how billionaires bunker down while the rest of us just try to live.

Ross spills insider fashion-world tea (Alexander Wang, Dolce & Gabbana, and Kristen Chenoweth catching strays), while Patrick recalls the moment he realized in fourth grade that his sneakers weren’t cool enough — a childhood origin story for his comedy instincts.

Amid the chaos, there are sweet moments too: gratitude for family cuddles, their daughter’s love of home, and Ross’s reflections on the value of her caregiving work. Expect tangents, rants, laughs, and that classic “after dark” energy.

🎤 Upcoming: Patrick performs at The Stress Factory in NJ this weekend, opening for Ian Fidance.

Podcast Title: We Hired a Sitter For This

🎙️ With Ross Erin Martineau away this week, Patrick Holbert takes the mic solo — juggling comedy career updates, family life, and mental health check-ins all in one episode.

🎭 Patrick’s got a packed schedule:

• Sept 11 – Grisly Pair (West Village, midnight show)

• Sept 12–13 – Providence Comedy Connection featuring for Ian Fidance

• Next weekend (Thurs–Sat) – Stress Factory New Jersey with Ian Fidance

📺 On the road, Patrick and Ian are also shooting episodes for a new “silly Dirty Jobs-style” travel show while Patrick leans into YouTube growth with consistent podcast uploads.

💸 Offstage, he opens up about the financial whiplash of inconsistent income, feeling disconnected from the NYC comedy scene, and a Sunday depression episode that tested family dynamics. He’s back at meetings, revisiting Raymond Chandler novels, and even carrying a “magical crystal” to stay grounded.

🎬 Rounding things out, Patrick shares film takes: Friendship, Sicario, and a defense of Reptile — where he enjoyed Justin Timberlake playing against type.

👉 Follow Patrick at @itspatrickholbert, check out dates and content at www.patrickholbert.com, and don’t miss the Patreon for bonus comedy and yoga extras.

On We Hired a Sitter For This, Ross Erin Martineau (doula) and Patrick Holbert (comedian/dad) dig into financial anxiety, summer camp costs, and why Patrick wrote “Vision without solvency is delusion” in his morning pages. A scrapped camping trip led to a Governor’s Island adventure filled with chaotic meals, a $40 surrey bike mishap, and Fran’s big leap into kindergarten.
