Podcasts

Throwing Shade

Safi and co-host Erin Gibson produce a weekly comedy podcast and TV show, Throwing Shade,[5] (which premiered on TV Land January 17, 2017) based on discussions of women's rights, LGBTQ rights, progressive politics and pop culture. Gibson (a.k.a. "Feminasty") and Safi (a.k.a. "Homosensual").[6][7] are "equal-opportunity offenders", and their comedic repartee frequently features adult topics and a politically incorrect sense of humor, even as they explore serious cultural and political issues.[8]

Gibson and Safi met while performing at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in Los Angeles, and continued to work together as writers and hosts on InfoMania, on the Current TV network.[9] They released the first episode of Throwing Shade on November 9, 2011.[10]

Ask Ronna

In November 2019, Safi and co-host "Ronna Glickman", played by Jessica Chaffin premiered a new podcast called Ask Ronna. Safi and Chaffin's show focuses on requests for advice and questions from listeners, and often feature a celebrity guest.[11]
