Dale Radio
The most successful basement talk show hosted by a fictitious person in New York, Dale Radio welcomes rising cultural figures, comedians, and artists to sit down, have a drink and talk about the creative process. Hailed as a “warped Johnny Carson” and “brilliant” "reminiscent of Alan Partridge" with a “voice like a shoulder squeeze,” Dale has been delighting crowds with his never-give-up-pursuit of modest stardom for more than a decade. The largely improvised, hour-long live podcast taping features music by Steve O’Reilly and plenty of hard candy and booze to make it feel like your favorite uncle landed a late night gig. Dale Radio recently performed at the 13th Annual SF Sketchfest and closed out the popular NYC Podfest.
Recent guests on the podcast include Nikki Glaser, Ophira Eisenberg, Dave Hill, Ilana Glazer, Jean Grae, Adira Amram, Brooke Van Poppelen, Seaton Smith, Janine Brito, Eliot Glazer, Beth Lisick, Phoebe Robinson, Molly Pope, Neal Medlyn, Carmen Lynch, Catie Lazarus, Jarell Perry, Drew Grant, Keisha Zollar, Jena Friedman, Becky Yamamoto, Jon Friedman, Jessi Klein, Murray Hill, Scott Rogowsky, Sue Smith, John Howell Harris, Jessica Delfino, XNY, Awkwafina, Claudia Cogan, Chris Lamberth, Sharon Spell, Dan Wilbur, Joy Yoon, Alexa Wilding, Dynasty Handbag, Leah Bonnema, Sabrina Jalees, Mary Van Note, Angus MacLane, and many, many other talented individuals.
