Host Adam Conover uses a smart combo of comedy, history and science to dispel widespread misconceptions about everything we take for granted in his fast-paced and highly acclaimed tru TV series. Adam is like that friend who knows a little bit too much about everything and is going to tell you about it…whether you like it or not…
Adam takes on a new theme in each episode, ruining various topics for viewers, including Security, Cars, Elections, Childhood, Sex, Nutrition, Work, and Death. Adam has shown viewers why the TSA doesn’t keep us safe; how donating shoes to Africa does more harm than good; and why you may not want to order seafood out again.
And here’s the thing: HE’S NOT MAKING IT UP! His mind blowing facts and science call the Myth Busters to mind.
Adam Ruins Everything started as a CollegeHumor original series that has generated more than 30 million views since premiering online in 2014 with the video “Why Engagement Rings Are a Scam.” Prior to joining CollegeHumor, Adam was an instructor and performer at The Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in NYC. Adam is a standup comedian who performs nightly around Los Angeles, and hosts his weekly comedy show, Fresh Out, at UCB Sunset. He’s also a gamer. Adam does a weekly video game playcast called
