"The Paper" is a mockumentary-style sitcom that premiered on Peacock in 2025. The show is the first official spin-off of one of the all time greatest shows, "The Office". It picks up with the fictional documentary crew attempting to do a follow up with Dunder Mifflin and winding up in Toledo, Ohio, where they instead focus on the declining historic newspaper, the Toledo Truth Teller.  Critics have given The Paper a generally favorable reception. It's been praised for capturing the spirit of the original while attempting to update the workplace comedy setting. The Paper is positioning itself not just as nostalgia, but as a fresh chapter spun out of the original universe. Will this long awaited spin-off land well with the S1E1 boys? Listen as they deep dive the show's pilot episode. Starring: Domhnall Gleeson, Sabrina Impacciatore, Chelsea Frei, Melvin Gregg, Gbemisola Ikumelo, Alex Edelman, Ramona Young, Tim Key, & Oscar Nunez www.S1E1POD.com Instagram & X (Twitter): @S1E1POD

Alex Edelman loves going to concerts but admits that he usually goes solo. That's because his ADHD leads Alex to show up pretty late to the show and he often spends part of it on the stairs writing something, occasionally darting into the main room for a song he likes. He can't make it through most movies either. Alex stars in the new Peacock series The Paper, a sort of descendant of The Office. His one-man show, Just For Us, about his semi-anonymous visit to a Queens white nationalist meeting, was a Broadway hit and adapted into an HBO special, picking up a Tony and an Emmy. Alex talks about his work, his mind, the strength and fragility of his psyche, and the significance of Adam Brace, his show's original director who passed away. (As mentioned on the show)Wits Reunion Show at the Fitzgerald TheaterJohn Moe's writing classes at the Loft Literary CenterMath Emergency Farewell Show at the Amsterdam Bar and HallThank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.

“Oh god, you're crying in front of Carol Burnett, fantastic,” Alex Edelman said at the top of his acceptance speech for Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special at the 76th Emmy Awards. It was just the latest unexpected milestone in the life of his widely celebrated solo show ‘Just for Us,' which premiered on HBO and also won a special Tony Award earlier this year. In this episode, the 35-year-old Jewish comic shares the unique challenges of bringing his story about attending a white supremacist meeting in Queens to the stage and screen, including the sudden death of his director just before opening on Broadway and how performing a show about antisemitism changed after October 7th. Edelman also discusses the surreal experience of getting notes from comedy heroes like Steve Martin, Jerry Seinfeld and Billy Crystal, tells a story about the time he baffled Mel Brooks by calling him “woke” to his face, and teases his next stand-up hour, which will take on the Israel-Gaza war.

Alex Edelman is the kind of comic who makes Marc immediately anxious. But it's quickly apparent that Marc is reacting to the fact that he sees so much of himself in Alex. They're both still dealing with complex feelings about their Jewish identities. They both paid their comedy dues doing road gigs in Boston. They both experiment with long-form storytelling, wondering if they're doing one-man shows or standup, or if there's a difference. They hash all this out as they discuss Alex's new HBO special, Just For Us. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On the heels of the release of his new special “Just For Us” on Max, Alex Edelman returns to the podcast for the fourth and best time yet.
