Gobcast Clips
A call-in show where host Goblin gives entertaining but irresponsible advice to listeners with chaotic, often illegal, life problems.
This is a call-in show focused on the messy, often illegal, and absurd life situations of its listeners. Host Goblin acts as a non-judgmental confidant, exploring stories of tax debt, potential deportation, and personal drama with a mix of genuine curiosity and comically bad advice for entertainment purposes. The format primarily involves playing a listener's voicemail and then calling them back live to unpack the full story.
“Unlike advice shows that aim to help, Gobcast's primary goal is entertainment through vicarious chaos. The host's rapport with callers, who are often in serious trouble, and his own admissions of irresponsibility (like driving with an expired license) create a uniquely unpretentious and wild atmosphere.”

What you'll be asked on this show
Goblin typically opens a segment by playing a pre-recorded voicemail to set the stage for the audience. His first move on the live call is often a direct, "What happened?" or a clarifying question about the voicemail. He probes by latching onto small, unusual details and asking blunt, factual questions ("How fast were you going?", "How much is the debt?") to build a complete picture of the caller's often-chaotic situation. He rarely pushes back, instead opting to explore even the most absurd hypothetical solutions proposed by callers. He builds rapport by sharing his own failings, like driving with an expired license, creating a judgment-free zone for wild confessions.
The show's core mechanic is playing a listener's voicemail, then calling them back live on air. Goblin, the solo host, uses a public phone number displayed on screen to solicit calls on specific topics. He often explicitly disclaims his advice as "awful" and for entertainment only, using personal anecdotes to relate to his callers' predicaments.
