“Rome is responsible for the original case of cultural appropriation!” with Mike Birbiglia

SubwayTakes with Kareem Rahma

Kareem, from his office in Manhattan, and Andrew (SubwayTakes co-creator and producer) from his home in the Hudson Valley, analyze Mike Birbiglia’s illustrious aura, recap Kareem’s wild weekend of schmoozing and commerce, his warning to Andrew Cuomo, an honorific to the recently departed Billy Jones, an update on Annie Hamilton’s take (she can no longer take the subway), and we take some calls from the SubwayTakes hotline. Then, Kareem is joined by Mike to recap his take, Eric Adams’s lust for gold, Kareem’s new fear of being deported, one of Mike’s runner-up takes–a bathroom key should never be attached to a block of wood–how to responsibly open a bathroom door, how Mike worked out his new special The Good Life, the taxonomy of nipple hardness, Kareem’s romantic entanglements with regard to fame, the merits of the MTA museum, Mike’s heritage and possible mob ties, and, as always, Takes on Takes©.
