Meet Zach Sherwin, comedic rapper, writer, and former scribe behind the rhymes on The CW's hit show Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. You might also recognize Zach from his epic throwdowns on the YouTube series Epic Rap Battles of History.
Zach and Dennis discuss the strange jobs comedians take on (because, let's be honest, comedy doesn't always pay the bills). They also explore Zach's lifelong love of language, from spelling bees to hip hop. Zach reveals how his Jewish heritage surprisingly influenced his love of rap, and how he went from college comedy groups to open mics in Boston, eventually landing in LA.
Later, they delve into the symbolism of numbers and wordplay in Jewish culture, and Zach shares more about his experience on Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.
Get ready to laugh and learn alongside these two comedy wordsmiths!

Zach Sherwin (born July 1, 1980) is an American comedian, rapper, writer, and actor best known for writing for and performing in the Epic Rap Battles of History YouTube series, as well as writing for Crazy Ex-Girlfriend on The CW. He specializes in comedic rap.

As the panelists decipher the clues, Zach takes the show down rabbit holes of comedy, music, wordplay, and trivia, all inspired by the various answer words. More and more connections emerge as the show unfolds, and everything ultimately ties together for a grand finale thatβs as satisfying as it is astonishing. You donβt need any crossword expertise to be dazzled by this brain-tickling, one-of-a-kind entertainment experience!

They discuss Kiki's days as an Emmy award-winning news reporter under her real name, Kelly Andersen, and the unexpected twist that led her to comedy. π€ Living in LA, Kiki now crafts laughter at iconic venues like the Laugh Factory, sharing stages with comedy giants like Bill Burr and Whitney Cummings.
π€―This is a no-holds-barred conversation that goes beyond the headlines, covering journalism, comedy, and the hilarious challenges of changing a name to avoid Twitter mix-ups with Kellyanne Conway. π₯ Hit that subscribe button, show us some love, and prepare to laugh with with the unfiltered wit of Deadair Dennis and his guest Kiki Andersen!
ABOUT KIKI
Before she was a comic, Kiki Andersen was an Emmy award-winning news reporter under her real name, Kelly Andersen, but after enough people confused her for Kellyanne Conway on Twitter (yes, really) she decided to change her name, her career and do something way less depressing.
Now she uses everything she learned about how the world works to make people laugh.
Kiki lives in Los Angeles where she does standup and sketch comedy seven nights a week. Since moving west, she has rapidly moved up the comedy ladder, performing regularly at the Laugh Factory and other clubs on the west coast. Kiki was recently the featured act in a string of sold out shows for Nate Jackson. As a former member of the Supernova comedy productions team, Kiki has shared the stage with comedyβs biggest stars including Bill Burr, Whitney Cummings, Jim Jefferies, Nick Kroll and others.

Steve-O (a.k.a. Stephen Glover) was willing to do whatever it took to become famous, even if it meant stapling his ball sack to his leg. After failing miserably at the University of Miami and couch-surfing with friends, he decided that in order to further his goal of becoming a stuntman he would enroll in Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Clown College.

Join Deadair Dennis Maler as he dives into the comedic universe with Justin Schlegel, the dynamic co-host of Baltimore's top rock morning show, Justin, Scott & Spiegel. From goofy skateboarding escapades in Waldorf, MD to becoming a beloved voice on the airwaves ποΈ, Schlegel's journey is a comedy odyssey you won't want to miss.
Discover how Schlegel's passion for entertainment led him from the Broadcasting Institute of Maryland to the spotlight of comedy clubs across the nation. With his razor-sharp wit and magnetic stage presence, he quickly became a standout, earning recognition at renowned comedy festivals along the way. π€π
But fate had a different plan for Schlegel when he caught the attention of 98 Rock hosts Kirk McEwen and Mickey Cucchiella. This unexpected encounter ignited a new chapter in his career, bringing him back to his broadcasting roots and paving the way for his own late-night program and ultimately, the coveted morning host spot. π§π
ABOUT JUSTIN
The Baltimore community knows Justin Schlegelβs voice very well, given heβs co-hosted the popular morning radio program, Justin, Scott & Spiegel, since the showβs inception in 2013. Viewers can tune in at 98 Rock to hear Schlegel from 5:30 in the morning to 10 AM.
As a natural entertainer, Schlegel first explored the radio industry when he got into the Broadcasting Institute of Maryland. He was often at the top of his class and tutored other students, so itβs no surprise that upon completion of his studies, he was hired for stations WYCR and WHVR to perform board operation duties. Since he didnβt align with the company, after five years, he quit his job and went to a bar, where he found himself performing standup comedy. Suddenly, he performed 15 shows a month, hired an agent, was touring nationally, and even made it into the prestigious comedy festival, Just For Laughs, in Montreal.
One night, he was approached after a comedy set by 98 Rock hosts, Kirk McEwen and Mickey Cucchiella, and they asked him to feature on their show. He impressed the station, returned to his broadcasting roots, and spent years recurring all over 98 Rock before he was offered his own late night program: The Justin Schlegel Fiasco. Eventually, he was moved up to afternoons, and then he received the coveted spot as morning host.

Get ready for a laughter-filled episode of "So What Do You Really Do?" with host Deadair Dennis Maler! In this episode, the spotlight is on the comedic powerhouse and Emmy-winning writer, Brian Kiley. As a monologue writer for Conan O'Brien and Ellen Degeneres, Brian has been tickling funny bones for years. π€£
Brian Kelly has appeared numerous times on βThe Late Show with David Lettermanβ, βThe Tonight Show with Jay Lenoβ and βLate Night with Conan O'Brien.β
Brian was a staff writer for Conan O'Brien for 27 years. In that time, he won a Emmy Award for Writing in a Comedy/Variety Series in 2007 and was nominated sixteen times. He was a staff writer on the final season of "Ellen" and won a Daytime Emmy in 2022.
Much to his surprise, he was even featured in the New York Times Sunday Crossword Puzzle. (He has never completed said puzzle.)
He has had a recurring role on the Cartoon Network's "Delocated" and has been on "The Bonnie Hunt Show", βComedy Central Presentsβ, βDr. Katz Professional Therapistβ, βThe CBS Morning Showβ, βSpotlight CafΓ©β, βCaroline's Comedy Hourβ, βComedy On The Roadβ, the Showtime Comedy Club network, the TBS Conan writer's special and βAn Evening at the Improvβ.
In this episode, Brian and Deadair Dennis reminisce about the 1980's Boston comedy scene, the WGA writer's strike, and performing together at comedy festivals and online shows. They also explore the peculiar world of Zoom comedy, where laughter echoes through the digital void. π€ͺ
