Our friend/comedian Ray is back for another hilarious episode—and he’s got some major announcements to share! We talk about whether we have what it takes to become stand-up comedians like Ray, and what really goes into making people laugh on stage. Things get spicy as we break down the 4 types of Asian F-boys and explore what it actually means to be emotionally gay. We also get into dating our first baddies, wild Vegas stories, and why Koreans make the most messed up shows. (SCROLL DOWN FOR TICKETS TO RAY’S SHOWS!) In this bonus episode, we dive into the comment section—reading both the nice and mean comments down in the comment section + answering some of your burning questions. No filter, all honesty. Then we put our taste buds to the test with a chaotic blind ranking of Asian snacks, trying to guess and rank them from 1 to 10 without knowing what’s next. It’s unhinged, hilarious, and surprisingly controversial. You don’t want to miss this extra dose of chaos. 🤫 Above The Influence is a completely self funded podcast.

In this episode, we dive into the rise of parasocial relationships and how shows like Love Island, Temptation Island, and even podcasts like ours contribute to them. We unpack our own experiences with parasocial connections, question whether influencers owe transparency, and reflect on the emotional cost of fame. We also explore how our households shaped us—from the lies our parents told to how they gave (or didn’t give) us confidence. On today’s bonus content segment, we have your favorite — Dollar Store Therapy. Wootak (our social media king) gives you valuable advice on how to grow your social media and make a profit AND we give you the cold harsh true about whether it’s time to leave the relationship or time to shut up and make it work. Honest takes, tough love, and a little bit of chaos. 🤫 Above The Influence is a completely self funded podcast.

This week on ATI, we welcome Blade — a Harvard grad, former football player, and certified golden boy — to see how he stacks up against a crew of self-proclaimed degenerates. From guessing GPAs to sharing raw stories about daddy issues and internet regret, nothing is off-limits. We play a chaotic trivia game (Golden Boy vs. Degenerates) to see who the real smarty is lol. Blade opens up about the darker side of growing up with an opportunistic father, and we all get a little too real. If you like dumb jokes and deeper moments sprinkled in, hit that play button. For this bonus episode, Wootak feeds five years of his private diaries into ChatGPT to get a full analysis on his life — from why he self-sabotages to what’s really blocking him from finding love. We dive deep into his patterns, his views on family and friendships, and the emotional baggage he didn’t even know he was carrying. It’s raw, vulnerable, and maybe a little too real… but that’s what bonus content is for. 🤫 Above The Influence is a completely self funded podcast.
