I seriously think this is a scam? I paid money to watch something I think they threw together with AI and a drugged monkey writing the script. Where is the production value? Where is there any sign that this was created by an actual human being? Its free real estate, Tom. It is lazy and tripe on all levels and the fact that you can only view this for a limited time after paying for it speaks for itself on how greedy and worried they are about how bad this is. It comes to no surprise that Tom continues to make money off the poors while spoon feeding them paid content that tastes like orphan porridge, its just too easy with his fans.

Sad to see it

The quality of the podcasts on YMH has been dying off for a while now, but I held out hope that maybe they would at least put effort into paid content. Unfortunately, it feels completely phoned in. Tom's washcloth bit has become as overused and uninteresting as the machine story at this point, and it takes up a bulk of the opening of this, 'special.' Lauren Compton's prison dating site bit is just painfully obvious and also material that's been treaded through over the history of the podcast, and I can't see this, 'special,' appealing to much of an audience outside of fans of Your Mom's House podcast. With that being said, it also feels incredibly tame, as if it's meant to appeal to a wider audience than the people who used to tune in for a weekly barrage of anal prolapse and self-surgery videos paired with funny commentary and observations.
It's nice to see some familiar faces peppered in, like Jessica Kirson and Ryan Sickler, but a lot of this thing feels like filler to meet the haha sex number runtime. I spent most of my viewing generally confused as to why whatever bit was being stretched so long. Of course comedy is suggestive, but I may have chuckled three times, I think once for Jessica and a couple times during Stavros' bit, which was admittedly well done.
Hands down the funniest part is seeing Tom make his mother listen to uber sexual hip hop and read through the lyrics, and whoever put this together knows it too, as it's the closer. Tom's push and pull relationship with his mother has always been hilarious, and it's nice to see them spending time together here. Beyond being genuinely funny, it's a reminder of what made the original podcast so great, and on reflection it made me wonder why I just couldn't connect with almost any of the material that came before it. It just feels like material we've already seen, without much more effort to put it to screen. I generally like all the comedians involved in this, it just feels like something is missing. I just can't in good conscience see myself encouraging even a hardcore mommy to see this thing, let alone pay money for it. Maybe things will change one day, though I'm doubtful, and if this is the best of the current state of YMH studios, it's a sad one to see.

what a let down, don't waste your time or money

Tom Segura should be embarassed that he put this out. I feel dumb for paying money to watch it. He really let down his fans and he also let down all the comics he featured in the special. The low effort production quality (including some pretty sloppy editing) made usually entertaining comics seem awkward and unfunny.
Segura seems so out of touch, and not in an ironic or entertaining way. If he was the brain child behind this project he should really revaluate his career as a "comedian". Were the scenes with Christina P consulting a tattoo artist and laser removal surgeon supposed to be funny?
Maybe he can put some of his por osos money towards refunding all the fans that paid to sit through this dumpsterfire of a "comedy special".
I wish him well, but I hope he retires from comedy.
