This week, Poker legend turned comedian Doug Polk joins Jamie-Lynn Sigler and Robert Iler for a wild ride through high-stakes bluffs, Kill Tony chaos, and the art of chasing new passions. From winning millions at the World Series of Poker to bombing onstage in Austin, Doug opens up about the thrill of reinvention, the psychology of bluffing, and how stand-up comedy might just be harder than going all-in on a million-dollar hand.
Jamie and Rob trade stories of addiction, nerves, and the pressure of performing—whether at the poker table, on stage, or in front of the world as kids on The Sopranos. Plus: the gang dives into Settlers of Catan obsessions, hot chocolate-fueled blackjack nights, and the overlap between poker pros and comedians.
