The Nose Is A Made-Up, Bogus, Hyped-Up, Not-Necessary Special Event

Netflix, Inc.
Jerry Seinfeld in '23 Hours To Kill.'

23 Hours To Kill is Jerry Seinfeld's fourth-ever standup comedy special and his second for Netflix. It hit the streaming service on Tuesday, and The Nose thinks it's great. And also that it sucks.

And then: Waco is a six-part miniseries that tells exactly the story you'd guess it tells. Taylor Kitsch plays David Koresh. Waco was the big, original launch title for the Paramount Network when it rebranded from SpikeTV in January, 2018. So why is it relevant now? One wonders, but it was recently added to Netflix, and it's been trending there for weeks.

Some other stuff that happened this week, give or take:

GUESTS:

  • Jim Chapdelaine - An Emmy-winning musician, producer, composer, and recording engineer, and a patient advocate for people with rare cancers
  • Taneisha Duggan - Producing associate at TheaterWorks
