Show Notes
For this podcast, Dennis heads to West Hollywood to chat up the hilarious comedy duo Frangela, AKA Frances Callier and Angela V. Shelton about their adventures and misadventures in the comedy trade. They talk about racism in comedy clubs, what they've observed about today's youth from playing college gigs, what it took to get them on VH-1's "Best Week Ever," and the nightmare that was "I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here." Al Roker goes down a little hard, Meryl Streep gets extra credit for being super cool, Clint Black makes a surprise cameo and Janice Dickinson gets let off the hook. Other topics include how they decided to go by the name Frangela, how they handle their disagreements and how they often convince producers to hire both of them instead of just one, like in the film, "He's Just Not That Into You."
