Though he is a longtime stand-up and comedy writer, Gareth Reynolds is probably best-known as co-host of the subversive history podcast The Dollop. And though that show is known for tackling under-told stories from US history from an acerbic and unapologetically left-wing perspective, maybe don’t expect a lot of history talk from Reynolds, who infamously learned Ben Franklin was never POTUS on the show. Instead, the Milwaukee-born comedian quips his way through topics like the perfect story to tell on Jeopardy, and being raised in Wisconsin by British immigrants.
