Things we can learn from the video

Press to jump

  1. 0:30Faustin says following TikTok advice about disputing credit-report items was followed by a drop in her score.
  2. 4:03Hearon requests an honest beard assessment; Faustin compares facial hair to contouring.
  3. 9:20A printer without ink becomes the obstacle to finishing taxes and returning packages.
  4. 36:25Both recall climbing into strangers' cars after mistaking them for their Uber rides.
  5. 38:15Their mothers' long phone conversations with friends provide another point of recognition.
  6. 48:58Hearon recalls a Des Moines bar outing where a friend was thrown out for dancing on a pool table.

An empty ink cartridge is enough to derail Marie Faustin's life admin. Returning to Caleb Hearon's table, the comedian describes taxes and package returns left waiting because the printer needs ink. Viewers have their own long-unreplaced cartridges to confess to.

"Marie Faustin Returns" was the only new upload on So True with Caleb Hearon this week, collecting roughly 62,000 views in its first nine hours. The conversation begins with another administrative misadventure: Faustin follows credit-report advice she found on TikTok, then watches her score drop. Hearon admits that hard and soft credit checks once meant little to him, either.

There are less bureaucratic detours. Faustin calls a beard "contour for men's faces," the pair recount getting into cars they mistakenly thought were Ubers, and Hearon remembers a Des Moines night out involving a friend dancing on a pool table. The episode includes paid sponsor segments.

A recurring subject in the comments isn't a moment in the episode at all: viewers want MESS, Faustin's podcast with Sydnee Washington, back. Others single out the cold opens, where laughter itself can be the whole introduction.

The channel added 2,000 subscribers over the week, a gentler pace than its growth over the past month, while daily views are close to their usual level. Nearby in the podcast world, Dish Podcast is having a particularly busy viewing spell.

Faustin's return is currently the channel's busiest video. Behind it, the after-hours Disneyland conversation with Brittany Broski and Drew Afualo keeps adding views, followed by "Esther Fallick is a Proud Millennial." The park outing has now passed three and a half million views, extending the life of the visit we reported here last month.
