HE DRIVES THE COMEDY BUS! 🚌 Fox News Saturday Night's Jimmy Failla joins Hannity on the latest episode of "Hang Out with Sean Hannity" to share some of his wildest, most chaotic stories from his years driving a yellow cab in NYC. From getting a gun pulled on him in Queens to hauling a beer-drinking goat up to the Ed Sullivan Theater, Jimmy proves that the back of a cab is the ultimate training ground for comedy. But it's not all cab confessions—Sean and Jimmy dive deep into why today's late-night TV hosts have failed the country, the lost art of the non-political joke, and the behind-the-scenes secrets of their hit "Punchlines and Patriots" comedy tour.
