ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Welcome to 'Trigger Warning', the podcast where the bad boys of NYC nightlife—Daniel Nardicio and Adam Klesh—promise to shake things up, make you laugh, and maybe even make you a little uncomfortable (in the best way). If you’re looking for a provocative, no-holds-barred space where nothing is too taboo, you’ve found it.
With their roots in East Village Radio and decades of experience in NYC nightlife, they’re back to share outrageous stories, tackle controversial topics, and bring you the kind of honest conversations the world desperately needs right now. They’re here to entertain, provoke, and remind everyone that humor has a place—even in sensitive times.
This episode is extra special because we’re joined by producer Josh Rosenzweig, who puts them in the hot seat with questions about our journey, our motivations, and what inspired them to revive the podcast. Spoiler alert: it’s about more than just laughs—they’re diving into leadership, community, and how to keep the party alive while moving into exciting new chapters (yes, real estate in Mexico and revitalizing Fire Island’s iconic Ice Palace are on the table).
So, if you’re ready for a podcast that’s equal parts hilarious, thought-provoking, and completely unfiltered, 'Trigger Warning' is for you. Hit play and let’s get into it! 🎙️✨
