Michael Ian Black

Is the point of this episode for Governor Kasich to convince Klepper and comedian Michael Ian Black to listen to Justin Bieber? Ooh baby, you better Belieb it! The thoughtful and hilarious Michael Ian Black comes on to talk about how he learned to expose his vulnerabilities and open up more, why there’s so much obsession around political divides and cancel culture, and how Kasich & Klepper teaming up reminds him a lot of his friendship with Meghan McCain. Michael’s latest book, “A Better Man: A (Mostly) Serious Letter to My Son” is available now and listen & subscribe to Michael's podcasts, MIKE AND TOM EAT SNACKS and OBSCURE.

Om Podcasten

They come from two different sides of the political spectrum: John Kasich, former Governor of Ohio and 2016 Republican presidential candidate; and Jordan Klepper, a liberal comedian best known for his viral videos interviewing MAGA supporters for The Daily Show with Trevor Noah. In this weekly talk show podcast, the pair will come together to scream their differing political opinions at each other for an hour… just kidding. Sure, there will be some political debate, but Kasich & Klepper’s discussions will more often explore the common ground of their shared interests. They’ll dive into conversations about parenting, leadership, pop culture, mental health, and more — all with a good sense of humor and a whole lot of jokes at each other’s expense. Along the way, Kasich & Klepper will be joined by high-profile guests from all walks of life — musicians, athletes, activists, politicians, and much more — each of whom will share their unique perspectives on modern life’s biggest questions. Together, Kasich & Klepper will have thoughtful, engaging, and downright hilarious conversations to demonstrate the power of mutual understanding in a polarized world.
