New episodes of Mindful Metal Jacket drop every Thursday

 


There’s a particular kind of honesty that happens when comedians step off stage and talk about what’s really going on. Mindful Metal Jacket is built on that space. Hosted by comedian Joe List, this podcast isn't a clinical guide or a solemn lecture. Instead, it's a series of conversations that feel like a late-night talk with friends who happen to understand the weight of anxiety and the necessity of laughter. Joe brings on fellow comedians and others who navigate the complexities of mental health, digging into their personal stories with a mix of vulnerability and the kind of humor that comes from lived experience. You’ll hear about the awkward moments, the small victories, and the strange, shared reality of trying to function while your brain is working against you. The tone is conversational, often funny, and deeply relatable, because it avoids easy answers in favor of genuine connection. It’s a reminder that you’re not alone in the struggle, and sometimes the best way to cope is to talk about it with someone who gets the joke and the pain behind it. Tune in for a unique blend of comedy and candidness that makes this podcast a surprisingly comforting listen.
