True Romance‘s Carolina Barlow joins us for this week’s TCB Field Report as she and TCB’s Jake Kroeger go in on the newly announced Primetime Emmy nominations (which, for some reason include Cobra Kai in the comedy category?). There are plenty of actually spicy takes that follow.

With that in mind, they reimagine what awards shows should be, especially for those that have been collectively snubbed. Carolina then takes us through going through a break-up just as she started a podcast about healthy relationships with Devin Leary, True Romance, and even get a bit True Romance-y by dissecting the break-up that Jake also went through near the beginning of quarantine. Lastly, we address the not-often-enough-addressed issue of comedians potentially ruining relationships when doing crowd work.

Jena Friedman (Soft Focus), one of the best dark comedians/humorists out there today, is TCB Field Report’s honored guest this week. As the pandemic has taken hold of Jena’s computer, Jena calls in on the phone with TCB’s Jake Kroeger and discusses the unfortunate luck of being right about the pandemic, some optimism about an eventual return of comedy, and some hints at what to look out for from Jena in the future when we have a vaccine. Also, they do some quick takes on being excited about the just announced Primetime Emmy nominations and Bridget Everett’s also just announced new HBO series, Somebody Somewhere.
