Adam Cayton-Holland is a Denver native whose website describes him as “comic, writer, actor, blah blah blah.” He is a national touring comic who has appeared on CONAN, Comedy Central Presents, The Late Late Show with James Corden, @midnight, The Meltdown with Jonah and Kumail, and more. He has been named one of Esquire magazine’s “25 Comics to Watch” and one of “10 Comics to Watch” by Variety. Along with his cohorts in The Grawlix, he created, wrote, and starred in “Those Who Can’t,” which aired for three seasons and is available on HBOMax. The Grawlix also host a podcast, “The Grawlix Saves the World,” which is available everywhere.
On this episode of Vic Lombardi’s Denver, Vic and Adam talk about Denver the way only two native champions of the city can. Adam talks about his upbringing, his career journey, he and Vic’s shared competitiveness, why he has two last names, the best set he ever did (which, oddly enough, no one has ever asked him before), and the tragic suicide of his sister, which prompted Adam to write the book Tragedy + Time: A Tragi-comic Memoir. This episode is funny, insightful, and filled with tons of killer anecdotes about our fair city.
You can find Adam at his website, and on Twitter.
