Andrew Della Volpe is a New England stand-up comedian, host of The ADV Show podcast, and a former collegiate catcher whose baseball background still shapes the way he approaches comedy today.

We talk about his meticulous restaurant research before a night out, celebrate his first wedding anniversary with stories from dating through married life, revisit his days behind the plate as a power-hitting catcher, and get his prediction for where the surging Red Sox will finish this season.

We also dive into the discipline it takes to stick with stand-up, how baseball prepared him for the highs and lows of the comedy grind, and wrap things up with Andrew's upcoming appearance at the Hampton Beach Comedy Festival and his own podcast, The ADV Show.
