    The Other Tom Green Show | Episode 17 with Adam Cayton-Holland

    Tom Green welcomes Denver comedian Adam Cayton-Holland for a wide-ranging discussion that begins with sports and comedy colliding, from Slap Shot and Bull Durham to the challenges of making football look real on screen. Adam delivers standout humor about Denver International Airport, local politics, and growing up immersed in Colorado sports, while explaining how his fandom for the Rockies fractured and why the Nuggets’ Nikola Jokić represents a once-in-a-lifetime gift for the city. The conversation traces Adam’s path into stand-up comedy, including open mics at the Lion’s Lair, climbing the Comedy Works ladder, and Denver’s reputation as one of the country’s strongest comedy cities. Adam breaks down the realities of touring, crowd work, and building an audience, before diving into the creation of Those Who Can’t, the cult-favorite series that grew from a low-budget Amazon pilot into three seasons of television. In the most personal portion of the episode, Adam discusses writing Tragedy in Time, his book about the loss of his sister Lydia, and how that experience reshaped his life, career, and priorities. He explains how the book evolved into the film See You When I See You, produced with the support of Kumail Nanjiani and Emily Gordon, premiering at Sundance. The episode closes with reflections on comedy influences, family, fatherhood, and the responsibility of telling stories that are both honest and humane.
