StraightioLab is a satirical comedy project led by George Civeris and Sam Taggart, two New York-based writers with credits spanning The Tonight Show and Stephen Colbert. The duo performs a mock-academic deconstruction of heteronormative culture, examining artifacts such as fraternities and gender reveal parties through a high-brow, scholarly lens. Their work has earned year-end accolades from Vulture, Time, and Spotify, situating them at the intersection of prestige journalism and alternative comedy. A signature element of their format is the Straight Shooting segment, where high-profile guests like Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Kate Berlant categorize mundane items to determine their cultural alignment. Recently, the brand completed a successful transition to the iHeartPodcast Network and expanded into a video-first strategy, incorporating multi-cam studio production for their weekly YouTube releases. This shift accompanies their increased focus on live touring residencies at venues such as Public Records, where they interact with a dedicated audience known as Glamols.
