Indecent with Kiki Andersen
Comedian Kiki Andersen finds the funny in the most uncomfortable corners of our culture. Sex. Politics. Religion. But in the digital age, what can and can’t be talked about at the dinner table has changed dramatically. Indecent is a podcast all about what’s off-limits and who sets the boundaries for today’s taboos. Through conversations with comedians, psychologists, journalists, theologians and scientists, Kiki peels at the wallpaper of polite society on Indecent, where NSFW meets LMAO.
