Oh, well, hello there. I'm Dave Holmes and welcome to Troubled Waters, the show that treats popular

culture as the most important kind of culture, because it is the one that is keeping us from going

mad. Now, before the Delta variant groundhog popped his head out to see a question mark number

of more weeks of quarantine.

Troubled Waters would pit two teams of comedians against each other in a pop culture battle

royale.

But according to LA County now teaming up with another person who's not in your quarantine

pod is possibly lethal.

Definitely unethical.

For sure, more frowned upon than trying to have sex with an athlete

on a cardboard bed.

So for now, it is one comic against another to win this battle.

Each comic will be called upon to use their smarts, their rhetorical skills, the great

comebacks they've been saving in a moleskin notebook all through lockdown to earn the

coveted Troubled Waters title. Pundit Emeritus, that title automatically gives a person's opinion

on Season 2 of Ted Lasso, which get into my soul tonight. Please, more weight than a civilians.

You're listening to troubled waters. Let's meet our comics.

Our first contestant is a comedian and a writer and a gossip.

And he hosts the podcast, keeping records on headgum.

It's Caleb Heeran.

Hello.

Hi, how's it going?
