Trigger Warning!
This show is a high-energy escape for listeners craving a taste of NYC Nightlife from none other than the master of NYC nightlife himself, Daniel Nardicio and his partner is crime Adam Klesh. Each episode allows to drop in on on what's happening in NYC. Whether thats a concert at Carnegie Hall or a sexy party at Red Eye Trigger Warning is a high-brow, low-brow, (and for all you drag queens, a no-brow) extravaganza—bringing you the spirit of New York. Boundary-pushing, and unapologetically fun. It’s not just a podcast; it’s a cultural phenomenon waiting to happen, where the unexpected isn’t just a possibility—it’s the promise.
But remember... you've been warned!
