Summary

First, Adam welcomes comedian and musician Reggie Watts to the show as they first get into the lugubrious process of a colonoscopy, Reggie’s background growing up in a military family, the surreal influences for Reggie’s style like Monty Python, stories about getting suspended from school, the issues with unexplained rules with people in authority, and the differences between men and women when confronted with a gap in knowledge. Next, executive producer Joe Praino joins Adam and Reggie to discuss some news, where they get into Nikki Glaser needing to take a cleanse after participating in Tom Brady’s Roast (and whether Nikki stole a joke in her latest special), how a “Facts of Life” reunion has been derailed by one star’s request for more money, a lawsuit over the origin of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos, and how a priest is suing Grindr for being outed on their app. Lastly, Adam welcomes actors Bryan Greenberg and Victor Rasuk of HBO’s How to Make it in America to discuss their new hustle podcast We (Almost) Made It, as they talk about never being able to finish a conversation under anesthesia, Adam’s semi-controversial advice to raising twins, what the acting world is like in the modern day, and the complications of AI in the creative sphere.

0:26.4	badass. So allow me to take you on a little tour through the ancient Olympics. But I'll warn you, ancient
0:35.6	Olympian tour guides were notorious for being liars and propagators of
0:40.3	historical myths. One Roman- sightseer named Lucian once quipped,
0:47.0	quote,
0:48.0	Abolish lies from Greece and all the tour guides would die of starvation,
0:53.8	since no visitor wants to hear the truth, even for free.
0:58.0	End quote.
0:59.0	If Lucian can be trusted, then even in ancient times the history of the Olympics was riddled
1:06.2	with mythology and fake history.
1:09.3	So I think the only way to get a sense of those games is to dive right in to the mythology.
1:16.9	Let's do it.
