The Adam Friedland Show is a talk show created by New York City comedians Adam Friedland and Nick Mullen.^[1]^[2]

History

The Adam Friedland Show was preceded by Cum Town, a comedy podcast hosted by Mullen, Friedland, and fellow comedian Stavros Halkias.^[3]^[4] On June 25, 2022, Halkias announced that he was no longer part of Cum Town.^[5] 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.^[6] Audio-only podcasts continued to be released to the public, with the full video-based episodes available only to Patreon supporters.

The set for The Adam Friedland Show was completed in the fall of 2022 and modeled after that of The Dick Cavett Show. 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.^[7]

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.^[8]

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 astronomer and science communicator Neil deGrasse Tyson, businessman Dave Portnoy, musicians Mac DeMarco and Matty Healy, rapper Jadakiss, and journalist Chris Cuomo.^[1]^[2]^[9]^[4]^[3]

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

2022 guests

Shane Gillis as Frankenstein's monster, featuring Nick Mullen as Count Dracula
Mike Recine, comedian and prior Cum Town guest^[10]
Mac DeMarco
Douglas Levinson, businessman and internet personality^[11]
Gene DiNapoli, Brooklyn-based Elvis impersonator who had previously appeared on a Cum Town episode featuring Bam Margera^[12]

2023 guests

2024 guests

Paul Schrader

Additionally, podcasters Will Menaker and Brace Belden, comedians Rick Glassman, Jordan Jensen, Brandon Wardell, and Chris Distefano, as well as Jackass star Steve-O and singer Matty Healy have appeared as guests on the weekly podcast.

Matt Healy's appearance was the source of controversy, amid rumors of a relationship with Taylor Swift and an apparent call-out by Rina Sawayama during a concert. Healy dismissed the outrage as a "bit mental."^[13]^[14]^[15]

Availability and listenership

The show is available for free on the show's YouTube channel.^[16]

Free episodes of the audio and video The Adam Friedland Show Podcast are available via Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Audible, and YouTube, among other services.^[17]^[18]^[19] Subscribers who contributed at least $5 per month via Patreon gain access to an additional podcast episode each week, as well as additional bonus content, including TAFS Digital Shorts and TAFS Scraps.^[20]

As of March 2023^[update], the show was the seventh-most popular podcast on Patreon and the ninth-most popular creator on the platform overall; with more than 18,000 paying members, it had around $88,000 in monthly earnings.^[21]
