Welcome to Whiskey Ginger a Wave series presented by Fanduel. This week Andrew Santino sits down with Kelly, one of the unforgettable characters from comedian Adam Ray’s new Netflix series The Adam Ray Show. And Kelly came ready to talk. Santino attempts to get to know the woman behind the mystery as Kelly dishes out opinions, asks the important questions nobody else has the courage to ask, and generally makes herself at home at Whiskey Ginger. It’s part interview, part therapy session, and part whatever the hell Kelly wants it to be.

Welcome to Whiskey Ginger a Wave series presented by Fanduel. Andrew Santino sits down with actor, comedian, writer, and director Ken Marino for a hilarious conversation about decades in comedy, improvisation, Hollywood, friendship, and somehow still finding new ways to make each other laugh. From *The State* and *Wet Hot American Summer* to writing, directing, and acting across film and television, Ken has spent years building one of comedy's most beloved careers. The two dive into sketch comedy, making cult classics, life behind the camera, ridiculous auditions, and why the funniest ideas usually start as the dumbest ones. It's the kind of conversation only two comedy lifers can have equal parts absurd, insightful, and completely off the rails. Be sure to check out Ken's latest film, *Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass*, which he co-wrote with David Wain and also stars in. And don't miss **Middle Aged Dad Jam Band**, Ken's touring band with David Wain and Craig Wedren, celebrating 25 years of *Wet Hot American Summer* with comedy and classic rock.

Welcome to Whiskey Ginger a Wave series presented by Fanduel. Andrew Santino sits down with Scottish comedy powerhouse Daniel Sloss for a conversation about stand-up, fatherhood, marriage, cancel culture, writing jokes that make audiences uncomfortable, and why the best comedy usually lives somewhere people are afraid to go. Daniel has built a career on tackling subjects most comics avoid, and somehow making them both hilarious and deeply human. The two dive into touring the world, finding the line (and crossing it), life after becoming a dad, and why audiences are still hungry for comedy that actually says something. As always, Santino keeps things loose while Daniel delivers the kind of brutally honest perspective that's made him one of the most respected stand-ups in the world.
