You need a laugh, I need a laugh, every parent needs a friggin’ laugh, and not that slightly maniacal laughter that comes out of you when you just want to tear your hair out because honestly sometimes, parenting is a little too much Luckily, these comedy podcasts will inject laughter directly into your ear… veins… things.

Unwind from a long day with these hilarious comedy podcasts:

1) WTF?! With Marc Maron

This incredible podcast is funny, but it’s also so much more. The interview show with comedian Marc Maron has become one of the most beloved podcasts of all time, perhaps because of how open and genuine its host is, while still keeping things funny.

2) Comedy Bang Bang!

Scott Aukerman’s podcast is honestly a classic. It has a host of brilliant guests discussing their lives and doing their comedic best, as interviews with celebrities and comedians are interrupted with the appearance of improvised characters. If you’re looking for something really funny and quirky, Comedy Bang Bang! is the podcast for you.

3) The Dollop

This funny history podcast is hosted by Dave Anthony and Gareth Reynolds. In every episode, they explore a character or event from history, like Ronald Reagen (with guest Patton Oswalt! Yes!), Enron and American Nazi camps (yes, that was a thing). It’s educational, illuminating, and will make you laugh out loud.

4) Judge John Hodgman

John Hodgman has been making us laugh with his deadpan humor since the early days of the Daily Show. In the past few years, he’s been harnessing his hilarity to serve justice, weighing in on some real serious podcast trials, like deciding on whether one man’s wife is decorating for fall too early, and if one woman’s husband barbecues too much. He’s the poor, petty man’s Judge Judy, but funnier. And we love him for it.

5) Anna Faris Is Unqualified

Funny mama (and Mom star) Anna Farris hosts this comedy podcast which is full of A-list celebrity guests. Anna and her guests attempt to answer listener questions about relationships despite being — you guessed it — unqualified. But still, the advice tends to be pretty good, and really heartfelt, and let’s face it, your shrink just isn’t as funny as Anna and her guests.

6) My Brother, My Brother and Me

Hosts Kid Fury and Crissle are oh-so-funny and oh-so-full of truths. These two hold nothing back. They praise black excellence every week before getting into the down and dirty of hip hop and pop culture’s worst offenders. Listening to them read the life out of celebs is what your week needs.

9) How Did this Get Made?

This very necessary podcast explores some of the worst movies ever made. Seriously, they’re so bad, we have to ask how they even happened. But also, they are so delightful. We’re talking about classic bad movies like Grease 2, Jaws 3-D and Gigli. Paul Scheer, June Diane Raphael, and Jason Mantzoukas discuss the best and worst moments of all these movies. It’s just so good.
