Celebrity Couples: Party Games with Jake Cornell

On today’s episode, Know Your Role(s) welcomes actor, comedian, writer, and creator Jake Cornell to the pod! On tap in this week’s Bar Talk are Nas’ “King’s Disease II” album release, the Netflix docuseries “Untold: Malice at the Palace,” and “Pod People,” a mini-segment where George and Dave discuss what they’re listening to! Jake discusses how years of food service have inspired his comedy, his path from theatre in Vermont to worldwide TikTok attention, and why “Happy Birthday” harmonizers are the worst. This week’s game has Jake and the fellas comparing celebrity couples to party games from Spin the Bottle with Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox to Go Fish with Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell! In today’s Last Call, Dave gets excited for a new season of “The Challenge,” while George gets gnarly with the “100 Foot Wave” HBOMax docuseries! Producer Mary Bess offers ways listeners can help the people of Haiti and Afghanistan in the midst of major crises and celebrates NYC production company Paper Kraine’s return to the stage.
