This comedian’s wildly inappropriate dating story is a stone-cold daytime TV hall of famer
Everyone loves a good dating story, but it’s even better when that dating story is told live on TV at a time of day when it is totally 100% inappropriate.
Which bings us to this 47-second clip which went wildly viral a little while back, comedian Erica Rhodes bringing WGN_TV morning show show presenters Robin Baumgarten and Dan Ponce to helpless tears of laughter.

Come to think of it, that might not have been appropriate whatever time of day it had gone out.
And here are just a few of the many things people said about it.

I fucking love when morning news shows have comedians on and are completely blindsided by the jokes. https://t.co/b3dAgvjxvq

This is “The Office” tier. 10/10. No notes. She’s ready for prime time.

A fun night of roleplaying really dug into the newscaster after the initial joke.

Local news morning news shows are one of the last arenas for true chaos and genuine moments of confusion. There’s an energy to the anchors that feels so dialed in that if any one thing throws them off, it turns into magical TV. https://t.co/NkdlY1vS8R
