Aaron Berg is one of the funniest comics working right now. Aaron is from Toronto and lives and performs in New York City. Due to Covid he has retreated to Delaware, the home state of Joe Biden. Ben and Aaron talk conspiracies, comedy coming back to life and moving to Florida (where people are free! haha). Aaron just released his comedy book reading as an album called American Etiquette, his own documentary 25 Sets available on iTunes and Amazon and just appeared on Andrew Schultz's podcast as well as the Real Ass Podcast with Louis J. Gomez and the Legion of Skanks with Big Jay Oakerson. Aaron Berg has his own daily show called "In Hot Water" on the Gas Digital Network and his Patreon podcast "Gum Friday's", both with co-host Gino Bisconte. Lucky to have him on the show and be his friend!
Filmed April 11th, Ben was 2 days into his new side hustle for Dial A Bottle. Without really looking into the tax implications or time that will have to be sacrificed, Ben jumps head first into delivering booze and looking for his first hired driver. Lots of explanation of plans for the show and future.
Since the Quarantine began Ben was worried that he would kill himself out of boredom. So he started applying for random delivery jobs. He bought into a Dialabottle Franchise in downtown Toronto and this episode is from his first day working.
Episode 34 is here. We are deep in the Quarantine. Ben goes live with one of his fans to discuss the current state of affairs and has his friend who works in corporate from home on. Some great commentary in this one and great jokes.
In this episode Ben talks about the expectations that people are putting on themselves during the pandemic. I'm going to lose weight! I'm going to become a better person! Relax, we're all going to die.
The show is coming together! This episode was recorded March 30th. We have multiple episodes ready to go right now! If you want to catch the episodes LIVE follow @benbankas on instagram.
