This week on Rom Com Vom, comedian and cultural critic Hari Kondabolu joins us to dig into The Wedding Singer—one of DB's childhood favorites! We talk emotional manipulation, passive female leads, and why so many rom-coms treat marriage like a finish line. Julia deserves better! Plus, softboy meltdown karaoke, marriage as the ultimate female achievement, and The Not Like Other Girls Olympics.
GUEST DETAILS
Queens-raised Brooklyn-based comedian Hari Kondabolu has performed on Comedy Central, Conan, Jimmy Kimmel Live and The Late Show with David Letterman, and on stages around the world as a touring headliner. A public radio favorite, Hari is a regular panelist on NPR’s Wait! Wait! Don’t Tell Me and has been guest on Fresh Air, Morning Edition, Code Switch, and more.
