Father Figures (with Guy Branum)

Do not be misled! The title of episode 4, “Father Figures,” does not refer to dad bods, but instead to dads who loom large in the lives of Angela, Patty, and Rayanne — often when those dads are nowhere to be seen. Angela’s annoyed to have discovered Graham’s possible philandering; Patty is annoyed that her father keeps interfering in the family’s IRS audit; and Rayanne was annoyed at her dad for walking out on the family but then she turns her ire on a more immediate target (and not without reason).

Chatting with me this week is fabulous comedian Guy Branum (Platonic, My Life as a Goddess, Chelsea Lately, Bros), and ohhhh boy does he have a scoop! Guy was able to ask an ABC executive why they axed My So-Called Life, and he got as satisfying an answer as one could hope for. And then I’m joined by James, who has a few revelations of his own, including one involving the Smurfs.

Check out Guy’s show Platonic, and his show in LA on May 7.
