It's safe to say that This American Life host Ira Glass' brand of humor is slightly dryer than the ebullient comedian Jeff Garlin's, whose best jokes stem from an addiction to Krispy Kreme and pudding. This makes the pairing intriguing especially as it coincides with the release of Garlin's new book documenting his struggle to reduce his carbon footprint and his weight. Expect an introspective discussion laced with more than a few food jokes and a booking signing with the Curb Your Enthusiasm star to boot.
