Ken Marino: A Laugh-Filled Chat on Career, Comedy, and Quarantine

I think it has to do with just all the personalities in that group.
Picture this: you're scrolling through Twitter, and on a whim, you ask one of your comedy heroes to join your podcast. That’s exactly what happened to Jay Casale, host of 'The Lighter Side with Jay', when he invited Ken Marino. Known for his roles in 'Wet Hot American Summer' and 'Role Models', Ken is not just a familiar face but also a founding member of the comedy troupe The State.
In this episode, originally aired on May 10, 2020, Jay and Ken dive into a lively conversation that's as honest as it is hilarious. Jay, who started his podcast journey discussing weight loss and quickly branched out into mental health and pandemic stories, brings his usual candid style to the table. He opens up about his own struggles with anxiety, depression, OCD, childhood trauma, and family addiction.
Ken matches Jay’s openness with his own stories from the entertainment industry, debunking the myth that all actors are living in luxury. Their chat meanders through various topics, from Ken’s career highlights to quarantine life hacks. The conversation is peppered with humor and genuine moments that make it feel like you’re eavesdropping on two old friends catching up. Ken even throws in a cheeky recommendation for your quarantine watchlist, guaranteed to make you chuckle.
This episode is perfect for fans of The Lighter Side, Ken Marino enthusiasts, or anyone who enjoys a good mix of laughs and heartfelt discussion. Tune in for an engaging experience that balances light-hearted banter with meaningful insights.
