Bad Friends took the stage at the YouTube Theater on May 8 for a sold-out live show at the Netflix Is a Joke Fest, before returning to their regular schedule with the release of episodes Bobbychella & The King's Fool and Drama Dinner w/ Jake Shane.
While the show maintains its massive footprint, Theo Von recently reflected on his own guest appearance on the program during This Past Weekend. Discussing potential creative projects with Bobby Lee, he noted, "When I was on Bad Friends, we were trying to find a movie role for you that would be really, really great." He later reiterated his appreciation for the chaotic energy of the set, adding, "But we had so much fun when I came into Bad Friends."
The industry consensus remains that Bad Friends serves as a vital cross-pollination hub for stand-up talent. With the live festival momentum and a steady stream of guest-heavy episodes, the show shows no sign of slowing down. Expect the hosts to continue leaning into these high-profile guest spots to maintain their current dominance in the comedy podcasting space.
