Chis Toyloy and Just The Essentials 21.02.2021

Tony Watson AND Austin Goodman AND Just The Essentials 13.02.2021

This episode is as explicit as it gets. Tony and Austin are stand up comics from NW Ohio! They are both HILARIOUS and offensive not JUST offensive. A comedic trait that most open mic comics think they possess and don’t.. These guys are great, so enjoy!

Indian CHUKIE doll 04.02.2021

Pinak Patel is a Columbus comic and tbh.... He’s a good dude. He won’t tell us where he was on 9/11, but we still love him here at JUST THE ESSENTIALS!

Jaye Spade drops some bars 01.02.2021

Jaye Spade is a Columbus rapper and friend of Jeff Lidala’s, so that makes him a friend of JUST THE ESSENTIALS!

Halima Abshir and US! 22.01.2021

Local comic and bread enthusiast Halima Abshir stops by to witness the dismantling of JUST THE ESSENTIALS as I scream at Dusty! Overall we have a great time talkin shit so enjoy!

JUST THE ESSENTIALS talked it up with Columbus comic Kris Johnson. He’s quiet but I enjoy hanging out with Kris cuz I too hate having to shout over loud mouths

Story time with Austin Black 07.01.2021

Austin is a friend of mine who’s not a comic but should be. Listen while he gives us 2hrs of some pretty funny stories that I set up terribly

2020 is over and I’m here to express to myself how I feel about it... Thanks for listening as I bring you on into the new year

‘‘Twas the day before the night before Christmas with Lukas Mateus - 053 23.12.2020

I’m in a good mood today so let’s discuss CNN, Christmas and how free Spotify sucks now!

Church time with Xavier Dunson - 052 17.12.2020

Dec 17 2020 Listen to this episode where I myself try to censor my filthy mind a little and still end up talkin about poop somehow..... Xavier regrets telling his mom he was going on a podcast and a Dusty claims stand up comedy is dying and has been since the late 80’s😂

Santa Mateus - 051 09.12.2020

Dec 09 2020 Sat down and chatted with me about myself... It’s riveting

Just Shaena and JUST THE ESSENTIALS - 050 05.12.2020

Dec 05 2020 Shaena is a Columbus comic who’s been hitting as many mics as she can, even during COVID! We discuss a lot of issues and. Even argue a little... I don’t get along well with others, but that’s why I do this podcast!

Brian Harris locked up - 049 26.11.2020

Nov 26 2020 Brian Harris is easily one of the best NEW comics I’ve seen in a while, so I was excited to talk to him and he definitely delivered! This episode is heavy.

Astrea AND Cecil - 048 20.11.2020

Nov 20 2020 Astrea Ashe and Cecil Herman are my favorite local comedy couple and this sure is a wild ass episode! Astrea talks faster than my brain functions but damn does she have some creepy stories about creepy dudes and Cecil tells my favorite story about parents I’ve heard in a long time! Enjoy and buckle up it’s a long one..

Lukas Mateus of JUST THE ESSENTIALS - 047 12.11.2020

Nov 12 2020 Solo episode this week and I go off on some pretty ridiculous ramblings to myself like psycho..... So, yeah... Enjoy!

AberFreak39 - 046 05.11.2020

Nov 05 2020 Logan Stake comes by and we say some extremely rated R shit... We go at for 2hrs, so buckle up

Samson Shete is more intelligent than JUST THE ESSENTIALS - 045 29.10.2020

Oct 29 2020 This is a really good episode with Columbus comic Samson Shete! Sure it’s not recorded in a fancy pants studio, but the content is all there I promise! We talk politics, dealing with police and Jeff stays awake!

Adam Little and the debates - 044 24.10.2020

Oct 24 2020 We got together with YOUTUBE sensation Adam Little! We chat with him for a while as well as watching the last presidential debates. It’s a pretty wild episode

Oct 18 2020 Raja is a comic/artist/musician and she hung out with us on JUST THE ESSENTIALS and Christian HB helped us out by recording us!

Christian HB sits down - 042 05.10.2020

Oct 05 2020 We sat down with comic Christian HB and chatted with him about smoking indoors and of course politics. What would a podcast during these turbulent times be if we didn’t discuss shit we don’t know shit about?! And Jeff gets drunk AGAIN.

Lukas Mateus talks to Lukas Mateus - 041 30.09.2020

Sep 30 2020 I’m back with me about me! I discuss the debates, the new podcast, being political but not.... It’s embarrassing

Katie Humphreys braved it out with us - 040 29.09.2020

Sep 29 2020 Katie is a Columbus comic who’s been paid, drives a mustang and doesn’t get my Dawson’s Creek references cuz I’m so old and crusty and she’s young and shiny. It’s a fun listen so strap in for 2hrs of JUST THE ESSENTIALS and Katie Humphreys!

Meet the tech guy to end all tech guys - 038 23.09.2020

Sep 23 2020 James Godwin is new to comedy but not new to the world of having actual knowledge on the subject of recording a podcast. So sit back and get to know James along with JUST THE ESSENTIALS. This might be the start of a loving relationship!

Chris Doughty and some new equipment - 038 16.09.2020

Sep 16 2020 This episode may or may not be a pinnacle of JUST THE ESSENTIALS! Local comic Chris Doughty came by and we get to know him on all new high tech equipment thanks to James Godwin.
