Ethan Ullman – Ep108

Ethan Ullman is a comedian and comedy show producer. Speaking for the first time since they joined forces at a comedy show at RPI (Troy, NY), Ethan tells Evan about his new Weird Al Yankovic podcast, aptly titled Dave & Ethan’s 2000″ Weird Al Podcast. Evan also reveals playing a fundraiser to raise money for Weird Al’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and how Ethan attended the eventual ceremony! Then they discuss the viability of virtual comedy, outdoor comedy and comedy in general in a ‘woke era.’ Plus, how people butcher Ethan’s name so much and why he loves Eastern Washington University. Super awkward!

Joe Rittenhouse + Mike Francesa Pandemonium w/ Mike Colon – Ep072

It’s a #SociallyAwkward Doubleheader!! First, off the breaking news that Mike Francesa, only 4 months after ‘retiring’ from WFAN, is returning to the station, Evan brings on non-Facebook friend, but Francesa expert Mike Colon of Mic’d in New Haven (4:00). He breaks down how this all went down and then Mike speaks about the time he was on the air in-studio with the king of NY sports talk.

Second, in their first conversation ever, Evan interviews Actor Joe Rittenhouse (25:30). They initially met when they both performed at Washington College. Hear about Joe’s acting career, how he’s travelled to 31 countries and why his path changed from politics to the arts. Plus, they have a candid discussion about comedy and how to be successful in this current overly-sensitive society. And did you know Evan plans to run for office?

Mark Baldwin / Mike Francesa Tribute – Ep062

In honor of Mike Francesa’s 30 year run at WFAN coming to a close, Evan interviews Facebook friend Mark Baldwin aka @markmongo aka ‘Mark from Jersey’ aka a ‘yooge’ Mike Francesa fan. How is Mark doing since Mike’s final show? Where does he see Mike ending up? How did he discover Mike & The Mad Dog? All that plus hear the time he was interviewed by Mike in studio on Fox Sports! Then, in a surprise swerve, Evan and Mark talk politics. Why did they both vote Libertarian in the last election? (It was for the same reason.) And does he think Trump will be re-elected? Also, before Mark came on, Evan welcomed back a returning wife Kelly Meyersfield to share her Mike Francesa thoughts (and impression).
