The Roast of Excuse My Grandma! In this episode, Kim and Grandma Gail are joined by comedian, Roastmaster General, and now Broadway star, Jeff Ross.

After playing Jewish Geography in the outtakes, Jeff talks about his new show, Take A Banana For The Ride (running until September 29th). The comedian puts himself and his family on stage, hoping to share stories of his past. How he knew he could do this? Being the funny guy in unfunny situations.

Kim, Grandma, and Jeff also talk about family heirlooms, their favorite Jewish inventions (Grandma's is brisket), and who Jeff would still love to roast.
