Summary

Andy gets a needling call from his agent to discuss the infamous "bro rate" that plagues his management. Andy & Nick reunite to open the show and process the last 2 weeks of Andy's tour... also how much we all missed Nick. Does Andy drink Malört? Or can he resist the temptation to party in Chi-town sans nasty regional booze? And on the Interview Hour, we got the very funny, multi-hyphenated sparkling personality of Jim Norton to get us thru the week! Jim & Andy speak on trans rights, loneliness on the road as a comedian, 'gotcha' culture, and many more sizzlin hot topics. Have you seen Andy's March tour schedule?
