About this episode

Alan Zweig invites comedian Angelo Tsarouchas to discuss the intersection of fatness and humor.

Over the years there have been a lot of funny fat people. Does their fatness make them funny? Does losing weight make them less funny? Has the obesity epidemic made America funnier? Alan invites standup comedian Angelo Tsarouchas to mull over these questions and others. What's the deal with rice and potatoes on the same plate at all Greek restaurants? Where do you get a tuxedo when you are 410 pounds? Is a TOPS meeting a good place to meet women? You can find Angelo's upcoming tour dates at tsarouchas.com or check him out on instagram or youtube .
