Part 2: Comedian Yannis Pappas, plus The News (ACS May 21)
Show Summary
Today’s show opens with a little bit of music talk. Dawson then mentions getting his new single played on the radio, and Gina shows off a picture of some creative homeless people. The guys also take a listener call about buying a car with a stick shift, which leads Adam to talk about Ford’s game-changing new electric trucks. Another listener calls in to discuss everyone’s favorite hard rock albums. Before the break, the guys talk with Jonathan Taplin about his time working for Bob Dylan, producing the classic concert documentary ‘The Last Waltz’, his thoughts on George Harrison, and making a film with Nick Nolte.
Adam welcomes Yannis Pappas in studio at the top of Part 2. The guys start the conversation chatting about wedding gifts, playing the ‘marriage stock market’, and Yannis’ experience getting shot. They also discuss Yannis’ brother who has special needs, The Man Show’s ‘Wheel of Destiny’, and getting struck by lightning. Later, Gina reads news stories about the Friends reunion, Demi Lovato changing her pronouns, and a DJ quitting his show after being told he couldn’t joke about Demi. As the show wraps up, the guys talk about an episode of Law and Order that helped thwart a kidnapping, and a video of three kids accidently sparking a massive explosion.
