Summary

Brooke talks with Patton Oswalt (The King of Queens, The Goldbergs, A.P. Bio, I Love My Dad) about the “coin flip” that landed him in San Francisco, how grief made him more emphatic after the tragic loss of his first wife Michelle, and what he wishes internet trolls understood about his friendship with Dave Chappelle. Oh yeah, and Brooke tells us about the time she sent her mom into the afterlife without pants.
