What compliments does Adam Friedland give to the hosts?
The mayor has been destroying himself as a cocktail waitress at night. I'm just... I thought that it was the old boys club. I thought this was the kind of stuff you guys said. I go to one of these Korean barbecues. He's like, would you believe it? They make you cook your own food. He's like... I sure hate to go to one of them Korean whorehouses. Wait, oh, why don't you come over here and suck your own dick? They say comedians are modern day philosophers, which is offensive to modern day philosophy.

Yeah, it's very interesting. He loves Dick Cavett, or his set is kind of based on Dick Cavett, a talk show from the 1970s. Yeah, I barely remember, but yeah. and he kind of lays back he's got a really kind of uh likable personality he's kind of pithy he's a little bit political and then he'll say stuff that's slightly off kilter and stuff it's very interesting yeah he kind of catches people off guard on his show because they don't really know where he's coming from and uh yeah but he's a comic at the root of it all and he knows us and We brought him on and we had a good chat with him. Actually, some good laughs. You never know what you're getting really, but if we can get some good laughs out of it.

How do comedians confront politicians during interviews?
Sandler's listening to this podcast. So every time his name is mentioned, I say, just as a signal to that Adam that this Adam is on. It's like the ear tug, the Mary Tyler Moore ear tug to her mother.
