Friday, January 26, 2018
Actor and comedian Christopher Titus joined LIVE talking about New England and his current live comedy tour "Amerigeddon" before performing a show at The Comedy Connection in East Providence.
Currently on tour with his eighth comedy special “Amerigeddon,” Titus says he didn’t want to write the political show, but he "had to” because he loves his country and wants to unite people “one drunk audience at a time.”
Titus also spoke about his first full-length film “Special Unit” produced by his production company Combustion Films.
