Evan Wecksell

Jill Noelle and Evan have their first extended conversion as they try to pinpoint how they became Facebook friends. Once they do, they dig into life in California, working during the Coronavirus, best SNL skits, and Evan’s new ‘clothing line’ The Covid Collection, of which Jill is a frequent customer. Then Jill offers an adept assessment of the current scene. Regardless, there will be enough awkward in this one to hold you over.

Princess Serrano met Evan one time back in 2012 and that was good enough to be Facebook friends. In their first conversation ever, Princess and Evan break down her experiences at a predominantly white college in West Virginia, George Floyd, the protests, Black Lives Matter, Covid-19 and being black in America. A rare, in-depth discussion on race makes this episode a little less awkward than usual.

Neil Kelly was a student Mount Saint Joseph’s in Cincinnati when he hired Evan to play at the school’s spring concert. After 10 years they have reunited (while Neil is caught in a windy Covid-19 storm).

Evan gets Neil’s thoughts on the Democrat field, who was pushing for and how this will all play out as we live with the hysteria of Coronavirus. Then Evan recruits Neil to break down all the matches of Wrestlemania 36… without any knowledge of the current WWE product. Guaranteed awkwardness!

As Super Tuesday nears, Evan brings on Troy Slaten, an attorney (and alum of Fox’s “Parker Lewis Can’t Lose”) who is running for Judge in Los Angeles County, Seat #145. Hear why he is willing to take a pay cut to better serve his community, why he is the superior choice and what qualities he values the most. And of course, Evan doesn’t let him off the hook until he gets Troy’s takes on his favorite TV judges, what he thought of Lance Ito’s job during the OJ trial and has he seen the movie “Troy?”

Then in order to ensure the episode has a Facebook friend, Evan enlists Bailee Wenckus of Susquehanna University along with her friend Anna for five good minutes. How do they know each other? How is Evan connected to her kidneys? The suspense is palpable!
