Comedian, actor, best-selling author, and podcaster Alex Falcone joins me for an upbeat conversation about comedy, pop-culture, and what it means to be a modern man in 2022. 

We get to hear about Alex’s upbringing, the discovery of stand-up, some of his biggest successes to date (Portlandia, The Late Show with Steven Colbert, stand-up tours), and we get his valuable incites on finding your funny bone and learning what is funny by trial-and-error. 

But first… 

Top stories of the week: 

-Russian batteries made from hog weeds.

-Nobel Prize awarded to Physicists for research which suggests that reality is not “real” (quantum non-locality).

-Flashback Report: 2006. MySpace mishap. Jeff Gets Expelled from High School.  

More to enjoy: 

—How a simple misunderstanding almost changed Jeff’s life forever.

—#MeToo. Where are they now?

—Why did everyone want to bang sexy monsters in the 2011?

—How Alex became a best-selling author of a teen romance novel.

- And finally, the gloves come off when Alex expresses his feelings regarding the life and works of Justin Bieber. One thing is for certain, I Belieb. 

This episode is special. I love comedy and comics. Just being around the comedy scene gets my motors running. It was an honor to hang with such a pro.

Big thank you to Alex Falcone for being a wonderful guest and a huge thank you to Melissa Nesbitt for booking him. 

Enjoy the show!
