Hosts Colton Dowling and Dylan Carlino bring Jamie Kilstein into the fold to come full frontal into the history of Hawaii and other things in history Dylan has never heard about.



Jamie Kilstein is a comedian, podcaster, and writer, who lives in Austin, TX with the rest of the comedian podcasters.
Jamie has appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience three times. Two of them were good and the other we don't talk about anymore. He has also performed standup on Conan, Showtime, the BBC, and more.
He was fortunate enough to be mentored by Robin Williams. In 2009, Williams listed Jamie and Joan Rivers as his all-time favorite comedians.
Robin said, "Jamie Kilstein is amazing, and I will be spreading the word. He has the spark that energized my conscience. We need more comedians kicking it like he does every night."
Jamie got his start opening for comedic greats such as Marc Maron and Doug Stanhope after dropping out of high school, illegally squatting in NYC, and living out of his car playing coffee houses around the country for two years. Nobody approved of this very bad plan but it made Jamie funny, as most trauma does! Speaking of trauma, Jamie has also publicly talked about depression, anxiety, suicide attempts, rock bottoms, affairs, divorce, and soft cancelations.
After being discovered by Paul Provenza (The Green Room and The Aristocrats), Jamie was quickly flying around the world performing at world-famous comedy and arts festivals, including: the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the Melbourne Comedy Festival, the Sydney Comedy Festival, Bumbershoot in Seattle, Lowlands Music Festival in Amsterdam, and Latitude in London. He's done standup in Hong Kong and Beijing, and co-headlined with Reggie Watts at the Sydney Opera House and Lakeshore Theater in Chicago.
He was the first comedian to appear on Montreal’s Just For Laughs prestigious New Faces in 2007 and returned the next year with his own solo show alongside Bill Burr and Patrice O’Neal. He has opened for Bad Religion, Talib Kweli, and Sarah Silverman. He has also sat on MSNBC panels with Pulitzer Prize Nominees and has become a frequent guest on the show of his former enemy, Glenn Beck,
Interview Magazine listed him as a comic to watch alongside Aubrey Plaza, Kristen Schall, and Reggie Watts. He was Punchline Magazine's “One Comic to Watch in 2009,″ as well as a Timeout Chicago, Sydney, and London’s Critics Pick.
In 2022, Jamie performed at The Beacon Theater in NYC, somehow got a Times Square Billboard, headlined clubs around the country, and was featured on Dr. Drew’s and Adam Carolla's shows.
Jamie's goal is to show that through humor we can always find stuff to laugh at, even if we vote differently. He is determined to use all of the mistakes he made to help people come together, laugh, grow, and love each other more.
"Watching Jamie reminds me of why I got into comedy. It's like watching a combination of George Carlin and Bill Hicks." - Janeane Garofalo
"Hilarious and scathing." - Rolling Stone
★ ★ ★ ★★ "Kilstein is to me eerily reminiscent of Bill Hicks and not in the sense of an astute impersonation but as if we were witness to some sort of Second Coming. Eloquent intelligence, razor-sharp wit, and unconventionally convincing arguments. Kilstein is a special talent.” - Broadway Baby
★ ★ ★ ★ "This is beautifully, intelligently crafted stuff. Kilstein is possibly the most impressive writer/performer I have seen–his set is so well written it could have a life apart from him and still be brilliant. Performed by him gives it an assed oomph, but I have not been so aware of the writing quality of a comedy set this year." - Kate Copstick, The Scotsman
★ ★ ★ ★★ "Kilstein’s savage intelligence and razor-sharp wit will make you think as much as laugh … damned funny.”  - Andrew P Street, Time Out SydneyJamie Kilstein is a comedian, podcaster, and writer, who lives in Austin, TX with the rest of the comedian podcasters.
