First Date with Lauren Compton, a weekly podcast where first impressions will NEVER be forgotten.
Finding a decent person to date is hard work, and comedian/viral content creator Lauren Compton is here to get to the bottom of it. It’s a dirty job, but someone’s gotta do it. Weekly, Lauren invites celebrity guests on to have a first date with her and figures out how many red flags they have, if they’re dateable, AND if there will be a second date! Dating is a wild ride… strap in!
Lauren Compton: The Dallas native has amassed quite the following across all forms of social media with her highly-entertaining content, although her IG bio recommends that you “don’t show your mom.” Actress and standup comedian known for appearing on Showtime’s I’m Dying Up Here and HBO’s Here, Now. She also earned a leading role in the Justin Lin feature film HELP. Compton is a regular performer at various high-profile comedy clubs, including Comedy Mothership and Hollywood Improv.
This week, Compton’s welcomes back stand-up comedian/actor Pauly Shore.
Buckle up because Pauly takes this very unhinged episode all over the place and even Rick Glassman catches some strays. Sprinkled in between the lunacy is some solid dating philosophies and realness about grief. To wrap the episode, Lauren switches up the Dessert question and brings it back to how amazing of a friend Pauly is by asking for some advice.
Pauly went on to produce and star in several of his own projects, including “Pauly Shore is Dead,” as well as the comedy specials “Vegas is My Oyster,” on Showtime starring Andy Dick, Tom Green, Bobby Lee, and “Pauly-Tics,” on Showtime starring Herman Cain and Larry King. In 2014, he released “Pauly Shore Stands Alone,” a true-life road documentary that follows Pauly as he performs in obscure towns throughout Wisconsin while dealing with his personal life. It appeared on Showtime and is available on Amazon Prime and YouTube.
Other recent projects include Adam Sandler’s “Sandy Wexler,” the short film “Sin City Psycho” Dreamworks’ animated “The Big Trip,” Lionsgate’s animated film “The Little Penguin: Pororo’s Dinosaur Island Adventure” and the indie feature “How it Ends” starring Whitney Cummings, Olivia Wilde, Nick Kroll and more. Pauly also starred in the movie “Guest House,” which is currently streaming on Netflix (digital and on-demand). In 2022, Pauly voices characters in Dreamworks’ “Pinocchio: A True Story” and “My Sweet Monster.”
Pauly released a series of video interviews in 2017 called the “Pauly Shore Podcast Show.” His guests included Judd Apatow, Iliza Shlesinger, Bob Saget and more. Pauly also hosted a podcast called “Pauly Shore’s Random Rants” which you can find on Bill Burr’s All Things Comedy, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher and YouTube.
