These talented stand-up comedians, podcasters, dancers, and artists discuss their extensive creative endeavors, including their Gnarly Girls Podcast and touring show, Grape Culture.
In this episode, Tony and Sarah explore themes like intergenerational conversations, the importance of cross-cultural references, and the current state of American politics, which they believe is abysmal.
They also discuss controversial topics like (g)rape culture, systemic issues in the U.S., and conspiracy theories surrounding child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
