#MichelleObama has a podcast—who knew? not me) and here’s one from last week where she talks with #JoshJohnson. He comes on at 4:50. I’ve only just started watching it so I’ll 🧵 to this toot later with some reaction. I like him, I like her, so I’m thinking it’ll be interesting. It’s long, at an hour & 15min. The podcast is called Michelle and Two Others. There’s a guest and her co-host, Craig Robinson, who I don’t know, but he seems nice. #recommended

@qurlyjoe I watched some of it, since I’m a huge fan of Josh Johnson. Got the impression MO didn’t do much research...

I agree. Craig at least “read up” on him. I’m only :25 in and it’s all been biographical stuff which is cool and all but maybe it’ll get funnier. What funny so far is how Josh either isn’t getting what they’re asking or is simply avoiding talking about the childhood roots of his start in comedy. Just, I was quiet in school & sociable at college, and then I went to Chicago to do comedy. I mean, he’s allowed to be private, 💯, of course.

@qurlyjoe I think I quit before then. Craig seems to take the interview aspect more seriously than his sister. I suspect Josh was nervous. :)

I think he was in awe of Obama, tbh. I know I would be. But he’s been in show business long enough to know how to handle interviews. He’s done a ton of em. I’ll finish this one eventually. It’s hard to sit and watch something for an hour.
