Actor Jon Hamm in podcast slathers praise on Atlanta

He then complimented the food scene as well as the city’s diversity.

“And you go out to dinner in Atlanta: there’s world-class food, there’s great restaurants, there’s fun bars, there’s beautiful music and art museums, the whole thing. And it’s not like in New York or L.A. It’s actually like Black people and white people go to the same places.”

“I’m seeing that too,” said Maher, who tours all over the country when not doing his HBO show “Real Time With Bill Maher,” which is dark right now due to the writers strike.

Hamm: “The reason is because they all have great jobs.”

Hamm, 52, has shot “Richard Jewell” (2020), “Tag” (2018), “Baby Driver” (2017) and “Keeping Up With the Joneses” (2016) in metro Atlanta.
