The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

The Adam Friedland Show is a YouTube talk show hosted by comedian Adam Friedland, in which he conducts long form comedic interviews with public figures on a set modeled after the set of The Dick Cavett Show. The show, referred to as TAFS for short, has been host to guests from a variety of fields, including athletes (Blake Griffin), musicians (Chance the Rapper), actors (Sarah Jessica Parker), comedians (Shane Gillis), filmmakers (Paul Schrader), businesspeople (Mark Cuban), journalists (Olivia Nuzzi), influencers (Amelia Dimoldenberg), and politicians (Gavin Newsom). The show was created by Friedland and comedian Nick Mullen and debuted on October 31, 2022. As of 2025, there have been two seasons of The Adam Friedland Show. The show started to receive more critical acclaim in its second season, with GQ calling Friedland a potential "millennial Jon Stewart."
