Sam Kinison, Diets, Android 18

Play
Love: Sam Kinison

Comedian. Former Preacher. Tragically passed and terribly missed. At least by Andy, who calls Kinison his favorite comedian of all time. We talk best bits, problematic parts that maybe don’t hold up so well these days, and Alex learns the really dark story of how the man actually died.

Hate: Diets.

Alex expounds on his loathing for all traditional diet advice, zeroing in particularly on favorites of the zeitgeist like Keto, Paleo, and even Veganism. Andy learns something about glucose and the brain, and we all have a good time.

Relationship: Android 18

One of our incredible listeners writes in to ask about guilt over close, physical friendships while she’s married, and Alex and Andy basically spend the whole time shaming the toxic monogamy culture and telling her she’s awesome.
