California - Evan Wecksell

The New York Knicks are about to battle the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals and Evan is on edge. To reduce (or enhance) his anxiety, Evan brings on fellow Knicks fan and Great Neck South high school alum Jerry Lee.

Evan and Jerry recount the Knicks’ historic run to the finals while citing what makes them most confident and uncertain about the Knicks’ prospect of capturing their first title in over 50 years! They also give their predictions and talk Great Neck nostalgia before Evan asks Jerry why he doesn’t see his cousin Larry that much.

Katy Grimes is the editor-in-chief of the California Globe and she always has a lot to write about. Focused on politics, Katy and Evan break down the woes of California while talking through prop 47 (addressing retail theft), homelessness, abortion, and more. Plus, what does the future hold for Governor Gavin Newsom? And what about Adam Schiff vs Steve Garvey this November? They even discuss the campaign of Robert F Kennedy, Jr. Katy also gets into the mechanics of journalism and how she acquires (and loses) sources. Finally, Katy and Evan watch along to Evan’s new song, “Radical Left Republican Dad.” There’s the awkward.

Let’s not sugarcoat it: Nick Smith is a movie producer in Hollywood! As VP of Production for Paperclip Limited, his latest project is a feature length nostalgic young adult comedy SNACK SHACK. Think Superbad meets Fast Times at Ridgemont High! Hear its origin story and how the distribution quickly came together.  Also, what got him into film? What’s it like being a movie producer? And what’s it like working with Yeardley Smith (the voice of Lisa Simpson)? All that and even some Theta Chi chat. Mildly awkward, but mostly entertaining!

In honor of Nick’s appearance, get some Cosmo’s Snack Shack pork meat sticks (for dogs) on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4cjw2Am

Ryan Kugler is a jack-of-all-trades, and perhaps even the director of Creed and the new Space Jam. (Oh that’s Ryan Coogler.) But really, hear about how this Ryan became a pro in VHS distribution but then reinvented himself in the liquidation business. He also has a side hustle where he puts on a variety of races. Plus, his family was recently out of town, which gave him the opportunity to check items off his Los Angeles bucket list. What was on the list? Where did he enjoy posing as a tourist the most? Ryan gets into all that right before he asks Evan about Vince McMahon. Always room for awkward.

In honor of Ryan’s appearance, get this poster of Director/Producer Ryan Coogler on Amazon! Never mix them up again!

Max Bonilla is a 17-year-old activist from Sacramento. Max talks about how the pandemic made him more aware of California state laws and the legislature in general. Although not old enough to vote or run for office, Max shares his insight on questionable laws the state has passed or is planning to pass. Then he and Evan run through state lawmakers and Max decides whom he would like to clone and whom he would like to get rid of. And does he want to run for office someday? All that and so much more from Evan’s newest Facebook friend!
