The Rooster Teeth Wiki


Join Barbara Dunkelman and friends every week as they sit down for a late night chat at their favorite diner to talk about life, love, sex, and everything in between
Official website

Always Open is a Rooster Teeth podcast primarily hosted and executive produced by Barbara Dunkelman along with the ladies of Rooster Teeth which piloted with four test episodes on September 1, 2016,[1] and finally being greenlit by September 29. The first four episodes are considered "test episodes," and are only available to Rooster Teeth FIRST members.

Always Open stars Barbara Dunkelman and other Rooster Teeth friends, colleagues and some special guests (mostly the other ladies of Rooster Teeth) as each and every week, they sit down for a late night talk-show format podcast chat at a diner to talk about life, love, sex, and "everything in between" (etc.). Common segments include "Cupidity," where all members are asked questions from OkCupid rapid-fire in 30 seconds, and "Box of Issues," a segment at the end of the show where an anonymous user asks for advice from the guests about a specific problem. These submissions are sent via email (alwaysopen@roosterteeth.com) or voicemail (512-649-0183).

On June 9th, 2020, Rooster Teeth posted to social media stating that Always Open will be on an indefinite hiatus. [2]

On 6th July 2022, Barbara announced that Always Open will be uploading again in Fall 2022.[3]
