The Adam Friedland Show
The Adam Friedland Show is a talk show created by New York City-based comedians Adam Friedland and Nick Mullen. History 
The Adam Friedland Show was preceded by Cum Town, a comedy podcast hosted by Mullen, Friedland, and fellow comedian Stavros Halkias. On June 25, 2022, Halkias announced that he was no longer part of Cum Town. Subsequently, Mullen and Friedland revealed their plan for a spin-off production—The Adam Friedland Show—to be hosted by Friedland and produced by Mullen. During the summer of 2022, test episodes of The Adam Friedland Show were released while the show's set was being constructed. These episodes began as audio-only conversations between Mullen, Friedland, and an occasional guest. The first episode to feature a video recording was shot in the creators' unfurnished studio and released in August 2022. Audio-only podcasts continued to be released to the public, with video-based episodes available only to Patreon supporters. The set for The Adam Friedland Show (modeled after that of The Dick Cavett Show) was completed in autumn 2022, and the show's first official episode was released on October 31. Mullen co-hosted the first two episodes and then stepped back to focus on his work as executive producer. After the establishment of the talk show, the Adam Friedland Show Podcast was released for free streaming. The podcast has both an audio and a video version. Content
Episodes of The Adam Friedland Show are available for free on YouTube. They typically open with a metafictional sketch involving Friedland and Mullen discussing the show and its production, including their feud with fictional producer Dracula (played by Mullen.) The sketch is followed by a monologue in which Friedland comments on recent events. The monologue is followed by a conversation between Friedland and the guest. Featured guests include Mac DeMarco, Matty Healy, Jadakiss, and Chris Cuomo. Free and paid Patreon episodes of The Adam Friedland Show Podcast do not follow the talk show format and are reminiscent of Cum Town. Mullen co-hosts the podcasts with Friedland. Guests

Additionally, podcasters Will Menaker and Brace Belden, comedians Rick Glassman, Brandon Wardell, and Chris Distefano, and singer Matty Healy have appeared as guests on the weekly podcast. Healy's appearance has been the source of some controversy due to the ribald nature of the show's humor, amid rumors of a relationship with Taylor Swift and an apparent call-out by Rina Sawayama during a concert. Healy has since dismissed the outrage as a "bit mental." Availability and listenership
