On this episode of The Commercial Break, Bryan and Krissy sit down with the unstoppable Michelle Wolf (and one very new child) — the razor-sharp comic whose stand-up specials, White House Correspondents’ Dinner set, and globe-trotting tours have turned her into one of the most fearless voices in modern comedy. The conversation winds through her running background, her writing years at Late Night and The Daily Show, what she thinks about the current “offense economy,” and why making yourself laugh first is still the only real rule in comedy. As always, Bryan and Krissy derail things with their signature chaos: strange gym stories, Venezuelan detours, and a wildly unnecessary deep dive into the best and worst places to bomb. Smart, sharp, and sneaky-funny as hell… this one’s a treat.

Comedian Paul Chowdhry drops into The Commercial Break for a fast, sharp, and wildly funny conversation that swerves between identity, fame, and the strange circus that is modern stand-up. Paul talks about becoming the first British Asian comic to sell out Wembley Arena, the evolution of his signature opener, and why pushing boundaries is basically his cardio. Bryan dig into taboos, touring for wildly different audiences, and the beautiful chaos of hosting his own PudCast.

This week on The Commercial Break, Bryan and Krissy sink their fangs into the delightful chaos that is Harvey Guillén—actor, comedian, voice of Perrito in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, and the world’s most endearing vampire familiar, Guillermo from What We Do in the Shadows. Harvey stops by to talk about how he went from recycling cans to fund acting classes to becoming the first queer Latinx actor nominated for a Critics Choice Award. Between Hollywood hustle stories, body-positivity truths, and a few questionable vampire jokes, Harvey proves that kindness, talent, and a little absurdity go a long way in showbiz. He might even convince Bryan that bloodsuckers deserve union benefits.

Comedian, filmmaker, and human fever dream Brandon Rogers drops into The Commercial Break this week to confirm what we’ve all suspected: there’s no off-switch. Bryan and Krissy try to get a straight answer out of the man who gave the world Blame the Hero, Magic Funhouse, and a thousand unhinged YouTube characters—but every question becomes a sketch, every story turns into a therapy session, and somehow Bryan ends up confessing his browser history. It’s a high-speed collision of absurdity, sincerity, and accidental wisdom as Brandon explains how he creates his twisted universes, why he never truly plays himself, and what happens when your fans quote your filthiest lines in front of your mom. Tune in for one part interview, two parts improv, and a splash of nervous sweat—because talking to Brandon Rogers is like drinking five espressos and waking up inside a TikTok. Brandon's things!
