Victor Marx: Frank 'The Tank' or Billy Madison? Anjelah Johnson-Reyes, 'Ugly Baby' comedy special

This episode of RSL is a must-listen for anyone following the Colorado gubernatorial election.Ryan dives into the Victor Marx campaign, questioning whether Marx is a legitimate contender or just a "grifting fraud." Marx has been accused of ducking debates and using questionable fundraising tactics, including smurfing, which involves taking large donations and breaking them down into smaller amounts to avoid transparency. The conversation also touches on the importance of debates in politics, with the speaker pointing out that Marx's opponents, Senator Barb Kirkmeyer and Representative Scott Bottoms, have been battle-tested in previous debates. In contrast, Marx's lack of experience and policy positions raises concerns about his ability to hold his own in a debate. Ryan also shares a humorous comparison on fictional debates portrayed in comedy classics 'Old School' and 'Happy Gilmore' imagining whether Marx might respond more like the fever dream-inspired genius of Frank 'The Tank' Ricard - or the juvenile ramblings of Billy Madison citing 'The Puppy Who Lost His Way.' Meanwhile, the conversation shifts to a more serious note as the speaker discusses the importance of fact-checking and transparency in politics. Also, Anjelah Johnson-Reyes joins Ryan to discuss her seventh stand-up comedy special 'Ugly Baby,' now available on YouTube. It's a tale, in part, of a 'miracle baby' she gave birth to in her forties (a daughter) after Anjelah changed her mind on having children during the COVID pandemic.

The Right Side of Hollywood: Jimmy Kimmel welcomes Adam Carolla to Hollywood Walk of Fame

This week on the Right Side of Hollywood, the conversation gets real about the intersection of pop culture, entertainment, and politics in America. Deborah, Christian, and Ryan start with Hollywood's Walk of Fame, where they discuss the recent honor bestowed upon Adam Carolla, a conservative comedian who's been a thorn in the side of the liberal establishment. But what's really interesting is the contrast between Adam's old-school humor and the current state of late-night TV, where hosts like Jimmy Kimmel are more focused on pushing a partisan agenda than entertaining the masses. Ryan focuses on the genuine warmth and sincerity Kimmel displays while introducing Carolla for the honor, and wonders aloud why the late-night host can't bring that same spirit and sentiment to his show for the masses. Deborah gives a keen insight as to why he won't - or can't - do that, and Christian details the de-evolution of Kimmel as a simple political hack rather than a comedian. The trio also tackles the topic of gratitude, using the example of actress Milly Alcock, who's been making headlines for her comments about being a woman in a superhero movie. Her attitude has sparked a lot of debate, with some calling her ungrateful and others defending her right to speak her mind. Deborah and Christian discuss the importance of being mindful of one's words and actions, especially when it comes to representing oneself as a public figure. Our Fool of the Week segment focuses on the recent behavior of 'Dr.' Jill Biden, who's been accused of elder abuse after her husband, President Joe Biden, had a noticeable pause during the infamous June 2024 debate with then-former President Trump. The RSOH crew questions her motives and wonder why she didn't take him to a hospital instead of a Waffle House. They also discuss the importance of accountability and holding people in power accountable for their actions. Fool of the Week nominees: 'Dr.' Jill Biden, Sen.
