EPISODE TWELVE: "The Comedian Scouting Report Episode" with C.J. Toledano
Manage episode 336352553 series 3256524
Long time no pod! Kind of been on a hiatus this season as I've been focusing on some other projects but randomly threw out a "C.J. come on the pod" after he tweeted about John Reynolds having "that wet wet" (paraphrasing). And, like the nice guy he is, he accepted! C.J. has basically lived a dream career of mine from writing for Fallon, making Funny or Die videos for the Detroit Pistons, content for every big sports digital company, and now has his own creative studio, Follow Through, that makes all the cool, funny sports content I wish I had the skill and/or connections to make, lol. They're developing a thing with Anthony Edwards!!! Anyways beyond that C.J. also has started some long running comedian pickup games and he gives us the down low on everyone's game from Brooklyn alt comedians to Nick Kroll, Sarah Silverman, and Adam McKay. Also he played catholic league basketball growing up! Wild.
Gonna try to maybe get a 4/20 episode out where me and some pals just shit out our thoughts from this season real high and then probably do another pre-draft episode. Hopefully next season I get to go more in on this and get cool guests like C.J. while also getting back to some hardcore draft/2k nerd shit. And also maybe getting high and watching weird basketball movies. Wanna do a film mini series at some point. Pod will be around for the future, just intermittently for now :-)
