Comedian Tom Thakkar joins us in the studio! Tom shares a track and story from his great, new album, "Thakkar Noir", about why he thinks we need to tax hot people more heavily. CJ, Sean and Tom talk about drinking in Indiana , where Tom is from, versus LA, where he lives now. Tom shares some hilarious stories about how people misinterpret and then overreact to his musical comedy show, "Stand By Your Band". Tom's joke about taxing hot people leads to a theme about how different drinking is for hot people- really just how different life is for them. We share a couple stories about how hot people walk into bars and get totally different reactions than what we ugly people get. We also share some studies on the difference in how hot people lie versus normal people.
Comedian Tommy MacNamara tells a story about falling into a bon fire at a wedding (from the live show). Tommy then joins CJ and Sean in the studio to talk about more wedding mishaps, involving everything from remembering your preschool safety lessons (stop, drop & roll) to errant, wildly-expensive taxi rides. CJ and Sean talk about fire in this episode- how drunks are doubly irresponsible around fire in that we not only create more fires, but we also can't seem to understand how hot they are. CJ tells a story about camping trip where fireworks, a bon fire and psychedelics nearly combined to kill people and we extend an open invite to a legendary wedding guest who nearly burned down a wedding venue. Checkout Tommy's forth coming live album, along with hilarious podcast Stand By Your Band!
