Broken Dishes Podcast
Episode 119 "Ben Kirschenbaum: The Future King of Comedy"

NY-based, nation-trotting, stand-up comedian Ben Kirschenbaum joins the show for an in-depth interview. It's a Broken Dishes episode unlike any other, where Ivan asks hard-hitting questions, and Cody also contributes. Interesting note, Ben is a master of lists. All types, to be exact. But in this episode, he wows the hosts with the fact that he's memorized every Oscar Winner for Best Picture. Move over, CITIZEN KANE, because HOW GREEN WAS MY VALLEY kicked your butt back in '42. If you want more of that, tune in, tell your friends and subscribe.
