Overview of Shitting Gold w/ David Cross | Your Mom's House Ep. 856

This episode of Your Mom’s House (Ep. 856) is a wide-ranging, freewheeling conversation hosted by Christina Pazsitzky and Tom Segura with guest David Cross. The show mixes show announcements and sponsor reads with viral-clip commentary, personal anecdotes (heels, Invisalign, public personas), and a long interview with Cross about his new special The End of the Beginning of the End (co-produced with YMH Studios and 800-pound Gorilla Media). The tone is conversational, irreverent, frequently crude, and comedic — blending clip reaction segments, comedy-industry talk, and outrageous social commentary.

    • Cross’s background: grew up near Atlanta, touring history, early college application anecdote (Denver University rejection), struggled with math in school, early touring with music venues.
    • Touring style and show format: preference for standing-room/music-venue energy vs theaters; the intimacy and immediacy of standing audiences; experiences with music-venue tours (Shut Up, You F**king Baby era and Sub Pop release).
    • Comedy craft: long-form storytelling, building surprise and deadpan delivery, audience engagement techniques.
    • Personal stories on stage: Machu Picchu bit with an onstage interaction; the “gold fleck on dessert” / “shitting gold” joke referenced.
    • Touring logistics, audience demographics (older fans, younger feminists, surprising teenagers brought by parents), merch jokes (tazer merch bit).
    • Casual, candid banter about life, jewelry, Marina del Rey/Silver Lake memories, and reactions to YMH clip content.

Notable quotes & soundbites

  • “I eat pussy like I’m starving. I pull her, slap ass, and I will fuck you like I own you.” — clip they react to (oily motivational guy).
  • David Cross: “You want surprise. All you want is surprise.” — on building long-form bits and audience engagement.
  • “There are places where it’s not the quality of the meat — it’s the gold.” — riff on the $1,700 “gold burger” and the absurdity of gold-flaked foods.
  • YMH recurring punchline: “Shitting gold” — referenced as a comedic payoff for the gold-fleck food discussion.

Memorable moments & highlights

  • Christina’s Mothership set switchup: she played goth/gay music and fostered unexpected green-room emotional talk.
  • The oily/inspirational TikTok guy: hosts dissect the contradiction of “Godly” messaging vs explicit sexual content.
  • David Cross interview covers his touring philosophy and why he’s chosen more standing-room/music-venue dates — he argues they produce a different, often better crowd energy for his material.
  • Cross and hosts riff on the “shitting gold” bit (gold-fleck foods, $1,700 burger) — comedic centerpiece tying to his special’s bit.
  • Shock content reactions (tooth pulling, body mod, and extreme TikToks) provide typical YMH gross-out humor and social commentary.

Main takeaways

  • David Cross’s new special, The End of the Beginning of the End, is available on YouTube and was co-produced with YMH Studios — it leans into his long-form storytelling, deadpan delivery, and rock-club/standing-room energy.
  • The episode mixes pop-culture critique (viral clips) with insider stand-up industry talk: touring formats, how different venues change performance dynamics, and the value of surprise in storytelling comedy.
  • Hosts use viral clips as comedic springboards to discuss broader cultural trends: performative social media personas, online kink/fetish normalization (Rule 34), and extremes of influencer content.
  • Recurring YMH approach: blend messy, adult-humor commentary with heartfelt industry support (producing specials, promoting live shows and merch).
