Podcast: Your Mom's House with Christina P. and Tom Segura
Date: September 17, 2025
Guest: Jordan Jensen
Main Theme:
The Mommies (Christina P. and Tom Segura) welcome comedian Jordan Jensen for a hilarious, raw, and insightful conversation about gender norms, dating, comedy, masculinity, femininity, and personal growth. The episode covers everything from code-switching and crazy internet dating profiles to lesbian parenting, breaking the cycle of toxic relationships, and why female comics are all a little "dykey." Together, they dissect modern relationships, comedic identity, coping with social change, and (of course) the timeless art of public farting.

- “If you know what they love, that's the way to a super elite white guy.” (Tom, 11:22)
