Comedian Lewis Black has quite the affinity for Wisconsin. He's been impressed through the years by our beverage consumption abilities, for example. He's been a top comedian, social commentator, and more for decades now. He's appeared on "The Daily Show" for over 20 years in the "Back In Black" segments, for example, and has performed in movies and TV from character parts to voices to himself. And yet, he loves stand-up, he loves Wisconsin, and he has an interesting history with this state - right down to when he realized he was allergic to most beers. But not all... which is why he has a namesake beer in North Carolina and has his preferences in Wisconsin. In this EricCast, we talk about that, his favorite bar in the world (which Eric also ranks pretty high), his Summerfest experiences, why he wears his tie the way he does (hint: it stemmed from a government job he held in his 20s), and what people can expect during his current "The Joke's On Us" Tour, which hits the Pabst Theater in Milwaukee for two nights: Friday, November 8th and Saturday, November 9th, 2019. Lewis and Eric have a candid conversation ahead of his shows, right here. Click below (or here) to check out the 10 minute conversation now!
