Joel McHale brings the laughs (and the wine)

from The Drink with Kate Snow · host Kate Snow, Joel McHale

In this episode of The Drink, NBC News anchor Kate Snow sits down with actor, comedian and television host, Joel McHale.  The two met at the restaurant Limani in Rockefeller Center, over Joel’s drink of choice: four (!) bottles of Washington State wine, made by his friend and fellow actor, Kyle MacLachlan. In a hilarious, free-wheeling conversation, the two talk about Joel’s early comedy beginnings, how he lied to get a key role, a “Community” movie, and the current projects keeping him very busy. Plus – stick around for fun, behind-the-scenes bloopers after the credits!  The Drink is Kate Snow’s interview series featuring candid conversations with actors, authors, athletes, and visionaries — all over a beverage of their choice.
