The Nose Starts to Come to Terms with a President Donald Trump

For the last 18 months, we've kind of all seen Donald Trump's possible presidency as, well, implausible. As funny on its face. But guess what. It's a real thing that's going to actually happen.

Culture, and especially comedy, is charged with parsing our new... situation. What will pop culture look like going forward?

And how responsible is popular culture for where we are?

GUESTS:

  • James Hanley - Co-founder of Cinestudio at Trinity College
  • Rich Hollant - Principal and design director at CO:LAB
  • Carolyn Paine - Actress, comedian, and dancer, and founder, director, and choreographer of CONNetic Dance

Colin McEnroe and Chion Wolf contributed to this show.

Jonathan is a producer for ‘The Colin McEnroe Show.’ His work has been heard nationally on NPR and locally on Connecticut Public’s talk shows and news magazines. He’s as likely to host a podcast on minor league baseball as he is to cover a presidential debate almost by accident. Jonathan can be reached at jmcnicol@ctpublic.org.
