Podbit · Smosh Reads Reddit Stories
What starts as reading a wholesome Reddit story about a joyful grocery store hug becomes a full improvised character study. Dina Pisciotti smokes cigarettes, remembers France fondly, grabs strangers by the shoulders, and has apparently been living in the supermarket for two weeks.

The final story, from r/TrueOffMyChest, is a palate cleanser: a 57-year-old woman spots a professional acquaintance named 'Dina Pisciotti' in the produce section, calls out her name, and receives a double-pull-in hug of such warmth and sincerity that she can't stop thinking about it days later. She notes that no one — not her parents, siblings, or husband — has ever made her feel so seen and accepted in a single embrace. The hosts are moved but quickly dissolve into an extended improvised bit about 'Dina Pisciotti' as a character: a wild, enthusiastic, French-adjacent woman who puts out cigarettes on backs and remembers a France trip fondly. Shayne admits that at the grocery store, he would be too distracted by perishables in his cart to sustain a long hug. A Reddit commenter notes that genuine heartfelt hugs have been shown to prolong life, and another describes 'mom-dad hugs' from strangers at Burning Man. The hosts close with a genuine moment of sadness that OP has never felt this level of physical warmth from anyone in her life, before launching one final round of Dina Pisciotti roleplay that collapses into laughter.
A 57-year-old woman described a spontaneous double-pull-in hug from a work acquaintance in a supermarket as the most genuinely joyful, accepting embrace she had ever received — more than from any parent, sibling, or husband.
She hadn't socialized with this woman outside of work. But when she spotted her in the produce section and called her name, 'Dina Pisciotti' grabbed her, pulled her in twice, and beamed with pure joy. OP had never — not from her parents, not from her husband — felt anything like it.
A broken pipe turned the Bad Friends studio into a hydrogen sulfide chamber. The crew denied smelling anything — which, as Andrew pointed out, makes their home lives deeply suspicious.
At a childhood sleepover in Sacramento, Bobby Lee's friends drew penises all over his face while he slept. He woke up, cried, and walked 7 miles down a dirt road before Eric Purvis's mom drove out to retrieve him.
On KSI's Make Me Laugh show, Bobby Lee got slapped so hard he fell and briefly blacked out — 5 minutes into the event. The rule was to use a tortilla, but the contestant used his bare hand instead.
What starts as a riff on Amber Alerts turns into an elaborate Speed remake: Bobby is a Hollywood tour guide whose bus shares a route with a kidnapper's identical bus, there's a bomb on board, and Keanu Reeves needs to be called immediately.
Their producer riffs a conspiracy theory about Lindsey Graham's death in Kyiv, which somehow leads to Bobby and Andrew discovering that every lyric of 'A Whole New World' from Aladdin secretly describes 9/11. They are disturbingly convincing.
Bobby Lee woke up Saturday morning to find three children splashing in his pool, along with a professionally hired swimming teacher — all arranged by friends who have keys to his house. His response: 'There's just too much joy here.'
Harold Ramis told a story about Caddyshack's cast doing drugs all day and night during Florida storm delays, with half their pay going to cocaine. Bobby Lee immediately wants to make that exact movie — and offers to relapse to do it.
Robby Hoffman had never heard of 'new towels.' A towel, in her world, was built with the house. When Sarah Silverman announced she'd bought new pool towels, it was a class-gap revelation.
Will Arnett pitched the perfect rich-person home for Robby: seven-hundred-thread-count sheets and brand-new towels — but a tiny, wrecked kitchen with a coil stove, chips, and Sprite. Best of both worlds.
