    Casters on Casters: Jordan Morris and Mallory O'Meara

    20/04/2026 | 21 mins.
    It's MaxFunDrive. And here, for the first time, we give you an exclusive look (well, listen) at the craft of podcasting: presenting Casters on Casters.

    In this episode, Mallory O'Meara (Reading Glasses & Reading Smut), and Jordan Morris (Free with Ads & Jordan, Jesse, Go!) improvise a musical number, sing the praises of one another, and Yes, AND...with one another. It's a hilarious conversation with a few life lessons sprinkled in.

    If this glamorous, in-depth journey into what makes your favorite hosts tick inspires you, support them by joining as a member at maximumfun.org/join.

    Edited by Jesus Ambrosio and Produced by Laura Swisher for Maximum Fun.
