Nick D – Dan Fienberg, The Emmy Predictions and The Return of Slap Slapply!

Nick welcomes back Dan Fienberg, TV critic from The Hollywood Reporter and The Fien Print, for another wide-ranging TV chat. They break down the latest drama inside the Big Brother house, talk about the major cast shake-ups coming to Saturday Night Live, and review some big new releases: FX’s The Lowdown with Ethan Hawke, Peacock’s The Office spin-off The Paper, and National Geographic’s gripping documentary Lost in the Jungle. Dan also looks ahead to the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards and lays out his bold predictions for the night’s biggest winners.

Then, it’s the triumphant return of everyone’s favorite British bon vivant, Slap Slapply. Nick and Esmeralda Leon go head-to-head in another round of Slap’s ridiculous game show antics, complete with trivia, laughs, and a goo-covered Matrix-style entrance you won’t soon forget. [Ep 384]
