Introducing My New Podcast, Factually!
May 24, 2019
Factually! logo image

We’ve been working furiously on this and banking episodes for months, so I’m beyond happy the day has finally arrived that I can talk about it publicly: my new podcast “Factually!” launches next week on the Earwolf network!

Every episode, my research team and I reveal a fascinating new piece of information that will make you think about the world in a brand new way. Then, I sit down with scientists, journalist, and Pulitzer Prize winners to go deep and share the revelatory new perspectives they’ve gained from a lifetime of research and study. If you’re a curious person who never stops asking questions, this show is for you.

The first episode drops May 29th, and features my interview with UCLA law professor Adam Winkler on the surprising history of the Second Amendment. Don’t miss out, subscribe now! Here’s a short list of all the places you can get it:

And of course, new episodes will always be available in the player at the top of this site.

We’ve worked very hard to create a podcast that’s both entertaining and informative; I hope you enjoy it!

I Was on a Few More Podcasts
May 22, 2019

There are a lot of podcasts in the world, and they all need guests. I am happy to fill that unmet need! Behold, the fruits of my labors:

  • On Dunktown I talked about the NBA, a sports league I have started fervently following but still know next to nothing about; since the hosts are in the same boat (in fact, that’s the theme of the podcast!), it made for a fun conversation that’s refreshingly different from any sports talk you’ve heard before. Doesn’t hurt that Anastasia and Agata are incredibly funny as well!
  • On Ariana Lenarsky’s tarot podcast What’s Your Deal, Ariana gave me the most positive tarot reading ever and we talked about how my skepticism about the supernatural interacts with my enjoyment of tarot and astrology as an artistic pursuit.
  • On What the Trans?, I discussed why I support trans rights.
  • On Dan Pashman’s the Sporkful, Dan and I talked food — my favorite recipes, my eating habits, and more — and discussed whether or not it’s better to live with our illusions or have them dispelled. (I think you can guess what my take was.) But more importantly — food!

Load ’em up for your next road trip / subway ride / DMV visit / buried-alive-mishap and have a listen!

Adam Ruins Harmontown
May 20, 2019

A few months back I was a guest on Dan Harmon’s podcast, Harmontown. Not only am I a fan of the podcast and of Dan’s shows Community and Rick & Morty; Dan’s approach to comedy and story was a huge influence on me as a young writer, so it was really something to appear on the show with him to discuss Adam Ruins Everything as well as – let’s say, deeper subjects. It was a really special night; take a listen.

I Was on the Rad DudeCast
May 18, 2019

I don’t think I’ve ever laughed harder on a podcast than I did on this episode of the Rad DudeCast. This show is such a delight to do; Anthony, Greg, and Brendan are three incredibly funny goons and their show is just pure uncut audio comedy. Take a listen.
