Girl on Guy is an audio podcast launched in 2011 by Aisha Tyler, in which she interviews various celebrities about their lives and careers. Self-described as "guy-centric", the podcast is a show about "stuff guys love", namely "culture, booze, comedy, family, physical injuries, psychological bruises, action movies, rock music, ninjas, zombies, failure, success, sacrifice, video games, and blowing shit up."[1][2] In 2012 the podcast passed the milestone of four million downloads.[3] Tyler's book Self-inflicted wounds is drawn from a segment on the podcast wherein guests discuss mistakes they made earlier in life.[4] Although Girl on Guy is one of the several jobs Tyler juggles, she posits that the benefit of podcast hosting is that fans "become evangelists for you."[5]

Tyler both records and produces the podcast herself using Shure microphones and Final Cut Pro.[6] The podcast was nominated in 2012 as one of Stitcher's best new podcasts and was recognized as iTunes best new comedy podcast of 2013.[7][8] The podcast was also 2013 recipient of a Webby Award in the field of radio and podcasts.[9]
