SEASON 8 WRAP UP SHOW with Danny and Alex Fossella

Author: Daniel Lobell (of WTF and This American Life) talks Comedy & Philosophy March 31, 2018 Duration: 1:46:03

Alex Fossella and Danny Lobell recount their favorite highlights from the season! 


Daniel Lobell, familiar to listeners from his work on Modern Day Philosophers with Daniel Lobell, brings his unique comedic perspective to the world of deep thought. This podcast isn't a lecture hall; it's a lively, often hilarious conversation where philosophy meets the green room. Lobell, who openly admits he's no expert, navigates life's big questions alongside a rotating cast of sharp, funny minds from the comedy world. You'll hear candid and unexpected discussions with voices like Marc Maron, Artie Lange, and Maria Bamford, where jokes and genuine curiosity collide. The show lives in that perfect, messy space between a punchline and a profound idea, proving that wrestling with meaning doesn't have to be a solemn affair. Each episode feels like dropping in on a fascinating, meandering talk between friends who aren't afraid to be silly while being sincere. It’s a blend of comedy, culture, and personal reflection that naturally unfolds in every conversation. Listen for the laughs, but stay for the moments of surprising clarity that emerge when comedians turn their observational skills on the human condition itself. This is a podcast where the journey is the point, and the destination is always another good story.
