We record every episode live in front of a small studio audience. The intimacy is the point — guests say things here they've never said on stage, because the room feels more like a dinner table than a broadcast.
No letterbox here —
the curtain's been pulled back.
Episode 213 tapes live on March 11 at 7 PM ET. Studio doors open at 6:30. The oak table fits 28 — and the conversation doesn't edit itself.
