On today’s episode, Know Your Role(s) welcomes author and humorist Mike Sacks to the pod! Topics on tap in today’s Bar Talk are Brian Flores’ suit against the NFL, Lake Bell’s new series "Pam and Tommy,” and the wild and wonderful stylings of Oliver Tree. Mike takes the gang on a deep dive into the D.C. comedy and politics scene as he reveals what it's like “Passing on the Right.” Then, Mike shares how John Hamm brought his satirical trucker triumph “Stinker Lets Loose!” to life, lessons learned from interviews with comedy writer legends like Harold Ramis, and why he often leaves saucy messages on David Sedaris’ voicemail. In this week’s game, Mike, Dave, and George get salty as they compare potato chips to baseball players from eating crab chips with Walter Johnson, to Wade Boggs’ chicken flavored Pringles, to Doritos Cool Ranch pitcher Greg Maddux. (You can’t have just one!) In today’s Last Call, George shares his Sunday shows, "1883" on Paramount Plus, season 2 of "Euphoria" on HBO, and "Righteous Gemstones" on Hulu, while Dave gets excited about Pusha T's "Diet Coke," and "Severance" coming to AppleTV+.
