I’m becoming more of a fan of Alex’s pithy (yet sometimes syntactically challenged) episode descriptions on our Libsyn page, so I’ll just copy/paste:
“Frank Liotti in studio. We talk Yale drama school, the art of acting, and getting acting notes from a washed up rapper. Angel really wants to talk about gay stuff. And because Alex is there, theres a 10 minute chunk about death.”
Yes, I admit it, the politics of race/gender/sexuality interest me way more than most other people, but since this is a stand-up comedy podcast and not “Liberal Arts Fancy Talk with Michelle Foucault,” we managed to keep it reigned in and mainly discuss the pathos of being a professional entertainer. I’ve been waiting a LONG time to do an episode with Frank, who’s one of my favorite comedians in New York, and he did not disappoint.
