44 mins

Episode Description

Comedian Patton Oswalt joins the show. Over Lebanese egg pie and Mediterranean chicken, we talk about Patton's hilarious new standup special on Audible: ‘Black Coffee and Ice Water.’ We dissect a lot of things that make him laugh -- from his daughter’s dissection of the horror genre to AI’s bent toward racism. We also talk about falling in love after losing his first wife and how important it was to have his daughter a part of the proposal. And we can’t leave without talking about the late great Jerry Stiller, his costar on ‘The King of Queens.’  This episode was recorded at Levant Bistro & Bake Shop in Echo Park, CA.
