Dax Shepard is endlessly fascinated by the messiness of being human, and he finds people who are vulnerable and honest about their struggles and shortcomings to be incredibly sexy.
Dax invites you to join him as he explores other people’s stories.
They will celebrate, above all, the challenges and setbacks that ultimately lead to growth and betterment.
What qualifies me for such an endeavor? More than a decade of sobriety, a degree in Anthropology, and four years of improv training.
Dax will attempt to discover human “truths” without any laboratory work, clinical trials or data collection.
He will be, in the great tradition of 16th-century scientists, an Armchair Expert.
Nick Kroll (Adults, Big Mouth, Kroll Show) is a comedian, showrunner, and producer.
Nick joins the Armchair Expert to discuss why he turned down the opportunity to kiss Dax’s wife, calling dibs on a celebrity brand sponsorship with Kleenex, and longing to be an undeniable casting choice. Nick and Dax talk about how he feels that Big Mouth is now the longest running series on Netflix, how his wife is such a supportive guide for what brings him joy professionally, and what it was like producing a cross-country intervention for his best friend.
Nick explains his motivation to speak honestly about his family in his standup, how Adults celebrates the great tradition of real comedy folks making a show together in NYC, and Coach Steve gets to meet Hermium Permium while Frito gets to meet Hormone Monster.
