Drop That Name! Jim Caruso & Billy Stritch Are Fixtures of NYC Nightlife and Hosts of CastParty

Описание: Please welcome our next guests, Jim Caruso & Billy Stritch. Fixtures of New York nightlife, their weekly event “Jim Caruso’s Cast Party” has been dubbed ‘The Gold Standard of Open Mic Nights’ for over 20 years. And their longtime residency at Bemelmans Bar at the Carlyle Hotel is one of the most New York things that exists.

On our name-droppingest episode yet, everyone from Liza Minnelli to Sir Paul McCartney gets airtime, including cameos from the likes of Carol Channing and Lypsinka. Jim and Billy’s lives continue to be one hell of a party! We couldn’t be happier to sit down with two great friends and share this conversation with you.
