Comedian Alex Hooper from Comedy Central's Roast Battle is in the studio… apartment promoting his debut album "Hugs. Drugs. Pugs." He's a big rave guy, so we're watching porn with ravers in it. Alex talks about why he decided 9 years into standup was the right time to release his first album. He explains to me how he got into raves and all the other things I just can't convince myself to get into. Of course we talk Roast Battle and he gives great roast writing advice. Then it's back to raves and Alex tells me his best/worst rave experiences and the origin of his "desert name" Tree Stump. We also discover my desert name thanks to autocorrect. Oh yeah, I finally reveal the first porn I ever saw and at the last minute Alex drops a story about his porn doppelgänger that has me laughing as I type this.
