Today's episode is another installment of Funny Money, where Nicole gives bizarre headlines from business and finance, and a comedian gives their famously non-expert insight on the topic. Today, Nicole talks to the hilarious Ben Gleib (The Young Turks, The Mad King, The Neurotic Gangster). While being a money expert isn't a prerequisite for this segment, Ben does have some really sharp and creative economic ideas that he put together when he… ran for President. True story. He tells Nicole all about it, plus, how he feels about the God Coin. Find more of Ben's work here: https://www.bengleib.com/

I recently sat down and chatted with Comedian @bengleib at his house on the outskirts of Hollywood. Ben is the host of the popular game show, "Idiotest" which is now available on Netflix. He also has a Showtime special out called, "Neurotic Gangster." But I think most of you know him from his days on the E Network as a regular panel member on the late-night show, "Chelsea Lately." Ben has even done voice-overs in movies like Ice Age 2 and The Book of Life but most recently he wrapped up his run for President of the United States of America. In this episode, we do a deep dive into his Presidential campaign, what made him run in the first place and the aftermath of it all. Enjoy!
This week's episode is a conversation with Ben Gleib - comedian, actor, host and former Presidential candidate, in his first in-depth interview after completing his run for office just a few weeks ago. He gives us a fascinating inside look at what life is really like on the grueling campaign trail. Ben put his life as a comedian on hold for 8 months in an attempt to do something for the country fueled by his belief that we are in dire need of change and better leadership - a belief that many Americans share. But does our democracy actually support change when money and special interest groups heavily influence who gets a voice in our political process? Conversation topics include: How money and big business affects politics, getting priced out of the big leagues, getting arrested while protesting in Washington DC, who was a dick on the campaign trail, behind the scenes stories including his most embarrassing (hilarious) moment of the campaign, platforms he believes in, perspective on the current election, and what it's like to come back to normal life as comic, social media censorship and our Orwellian future. And if he would ever do it again...

"FUNNY TWIST OF FATE" Comedian Ben Gleib has a fantastic podcast called, "The Last Week on Earth." He covers politics, celebrity gossip, life advice and nothing is off limits. He kicked off his podcast with a parade of high-profile celebrity guests including Blake Griffin, Dane Cook, Meghan McCain, Aisha Tyler and Sophia Bush. Ben and Sophia hit it off famously and ended up attending Seth Rogan's "Hilarity For Charity" event. That's when Ben met Bryan Cranston for the first time. After the charity event, the legendary actor from the hit series "Breaking Bad" agreed to do Ben's podcast. He came on and they acted like old high school buddies who hadn't seen each other in 10 years. The energy was electric. They were laughing, trading Rush Limbaugh impressions, Bryan was giving career advice. You name it, they talked about it. This ended up being the beginning of a lifelong relationship between Ben and Bryan. Bryan even sent a few of his co-stars Ben's way to do his podcast. This is a MUST HEAR episode. It's so much fun and actually one of my favorites so far. I can't thank Ben enough for coming on and sharing. Make sure you check out Ben's wonderful podcast "Last Week on Earth" to hear the full episodes with Bryan Cranston and Bob Odenkirk.
