Comedy Mainline

Amber Preston hops onto the block with the boys. Amber started her stand-up career in Minneapolis at the prestigious Acme Comedy Company. The very same place Robert and Steve were bored into the comedy world. She's a fantastic comedian. Marc Maron called her one of the top 5 comedians to watch and was a guest on his ultra-popular podcast "WTF." We explored how body odors and secretions relate to our politicians, 16-year-old voters, doctors without manners, Only Fans for doctors, and everyone's favorite creepy childhood game "Kiss or Kill."

Caleb Synan clocks into the block with some hot new takes on being self-employed, getting freaky with your order at Jimmy Johns, and the ridiculous ego-trip of fighting over who gets to pay the dinner bill. Robert and Steve were honored to help one of the best up-and-coming comedians in the world flesh out some new material.

Coleman has been one of the best comedians in Minneapolis for over a decade. In 2017 he achieved national notoriety when made his TV debut on Comedy Central’s “Hart of the City.” He has a boisterous but smooth style and is never afraid to take on controversial topics surrounding race and politics. We had a great time catching up with our friend and working through his ideas about becoming a new dad in older age and bullying the person that created cursive writing.

This is the audio of the LIVE STREAM with The legendary Todd Glass. We did it live at MBC Studios in Minneapolis MN!!! It was a great show. You can replay the video stream by going to this link https://fb.watch/3-Qwc8qwBz/ or just settle in with your headphones and enjoy the audio right here.

It was loose, fun, and full of surprises. Everything you would expect from comedy savant Todd Glass. And of course, we had Country Music Legend Chris Maddock in studio and on the guitar. We helped Todd work through his premises of "A lot of people don't know this about me but..." and what a "Cheesecake Factory Cruise" would look like. We hope you enjoy the show!
