2:01:00Now PlayingAdam welcomes comedian Kim Congdon as they review Kim’s stand-up trajectory and how she left college to pursue comedy. She divulges her fun adventures during covid that almost lead to an engagement, until comedy called her back to the real world. She blasts specific comedy clubs and how comedians are treated, recommending comedians unionize, resulting in Adam offering to bring her pizza on the picket lines in support.
Next producer, stuntman and SAG-AFTRA connoisseur Peter Antico joins the show to discuss a wide variety of subjects from the current Hollywood strikes, as well as the complications of media monopolies today that have attained concentrated power affecting fair dealings elsewhere in the industry. He examines the pros and cons of AI, as well as conflicting politics within the unions. Peter also shares what it’s like being a stuntman while also having tourettes.
Chris proposes news of the day starting with an announcement from Dick’s Sporting Goods who blames an increase in theft for their lackluster financial report. On a lighter note, we learn of Jennifer Aniston disclosing that she’ll try almost anything once to look young, and that she once tried a salmon-sperm facial.
