The Brolic
Yerrrrrrrrrrrr listening to The Brolic
The Brolic Podcast is the unofficial (for now) NY extension of the GOAT podcast, The Dollop, created by Dave Anthony and Gareth Reynolds.
Hosted by sit down comedians and cousins, Evan & Chris, with many special guest comics along the way, in each episode we review a piece of NY history, generally with Chris not knowing what it's going to be about.
From the widely known to the NY known to the personal anecdote; it's all history. It's all New York. And it’s brolic af.
