This week Brian welcomes actor, podcaster and Chicago sports fan Jake Johnson. After a deep dive into how the Bears will (or won't) sneak their way into the playoffs next year, Jake discusses his early days in the NYC sketch comedy scene, how a half-remembered urban legend became fodder for the creation of Drunk History, and how his love for absurdity influenced the growth of his character on the hit sitcom New Girl.
