Paul Giamatti’s CHINWAG with Stephen Asma

Bonus-wag: Pizzagate and Psychic Goldfish


Listen Later

🙋🏻‍♂️🍕🖋️


Paul, Stephen, and comedian Christ Gethard answer the weirdly awesome questions from our live audience at Sketchfest 2024.


Have you noticed conspiracy theories have gone from “fun” to “crazy”? You have? Perfect segue to Chris’s rumored involvement with Pizzagate and the real reason behind that fake (but really creepy!) satanic ritual on The Chris Gethard Show with Will Ferrell (uh, ratings!?).


Paul fields a doozy of an audience question and sidesteps it masterfully. More Norcal weirdness, Mount Shasta and its one-footprint inhabitants. Then, get to know Stephen better with a story from his sordid high school days (pointillist poison pen!). And a fan’s very close-call with Paul and his weirdest fan encounter involving, what else, a psychic goldfish.


Paul Giamatti is an award-winning actor and producer. Stephen Asma is a professor and author specializing in the philosophy of science, religion, and art.


Chris Gethard is a comedian, author, actor and host of the Beautiful/Anonymous podcast which was recently adapted into a 4-part series streaming on Topic. He also wrote the book “Weird New York” and hosts the podcast New Jersey is the World, a celebration of his home state. If you want to see Chris live, check out his tour dates on chrisgeth.com.
