Cops, Scrapple & Competitive Eating | Up Your Aunties Ep. 3
Julia Scotti and Cathy Caldwell are back for another episode of Up Your Aunties, and the conversation goes completely off the rails.
Julia starts things off in a terrible mood over a disappearing sprinkler repairman, and things only get crazier from there. The Aunties take on politics, Julia's upcoming film project, the latest twist in the mystery of Amelia Earhart, and a 99-year-old woman celebrating her birthday on the wing of an airplane.
Then Cathy shares a wild neighborhood story involving an argument, a gun, the police, and an unexpected babysitting assignment.
And just when you think things couldn't get any stranger, the conversation turns to Philadelphia's scrapple-sculpting championship, Joey Chestnut, and the bizarre world of competitive eating.
It's another episode of two stand-up comedians proving that absolutely no topic is off-limits.

Up Your Aunties Ep. 2 | Data Centers, Bombing BOT Farms, Amelia Earhart & Cathy's Midair Meltdown
Julia Scotti and Cathy Caldwell are back, and this week they're all over the place—in the best possible way.
The Aunties kick things off with Shane Gillis on Saturday Night Live before tackling Russian bot farms, noisy data centers, and the early days of computers. Then it's off into aviation history with Amelia Earhart and Charles Lindbergh, which somehow leads to Cathy telling the story of the time she nearly lost her mind on an airplane.
Throw in a French art heist, Spain's giant tomato fight, Burning Man, the Running of the Bulls, and some news from the comedy world, and you've got another episode of Up Your Aunties.
