About this episode
The episode discusses the ESPYs, reactions to comedians regarding woke culture, and features commentary on various comedians and their works.
The ESPYs air tonight on ABC hosted by comedian Marcello Hernandez with performances by Slick Rick, Ghostface Killah, and De La Soul, and contrasts audience reactions to last year’s Shane Gillis.

Jeff Foxworthy tells Fox Digital Hollywood misunderstands much of America, credits the Blue Collar Tour’s appeal, and recalls programming SiriusXM’s Blue Collar channel.
