Episode 39 - MORE Scenes!

We had another live show this past weekend, so you know what that means: More improv scenes to watch and reflect on. Check out the live show every month down on 2nd & Gold in Albuquerque!

Sarah found the new student guide that UCB used to give out in 2014 and Alex, Leslie and she discuss what's changed and if ABQ's Comedy Corner could glean anything from the document

We all have to bring fun people to our fun shows, and in this week's episodes, we discuss several ways we do that and could do that.

"One might well say that mankind is divisible into two great classes: hosts and guests." - Max Beerbohm How do improvisers play with guests? How do guest comedians get booked on a show? Could a live sketch show that's not SNL have a guest? Alex, Leslie, and Sarah discuss all of this and more!

We're back after a big weekend for Alex, who popped back on the stand-up comedy stage for the first time in a long time. We discuss his experience with that and, because we are a comedy podcast, we were forced to reckon with the Tony Hinchcliffe MSG appearance too. So much to discuss!

Leslie noticed a very interesting trend in some corners of the comedy world, which led to today's conversation. When does a sponsor not feel like a good match? When is it too much? Do corporations belong in all of this at all?

Alex brings the group and interesting topic this week: What is fueling the funnybone of bullies? Why is this how they joke? Is it a joke?And like perfect empaths, we dive in deep and try to reach some understanding. Also, did you notice that episode 31 was missing? Well, we fished it out of the vault and released it for you today too! Two ep week! Two ep week!

Oh we talk about improv a lot on this podcast but on today's episode? Well on today's episode you actually get to hear/watch some. We caught a couple clips from our live Goofball Showalition at the 2024 Albuquerque Funny Fiesta and Sarah and Leslie walk you through them this week!

On today's episode, Sarah and Leslie discuss the growing use of sketch comedy by brands on social media. Also, was Ernest the original influencer? Find out what we think!

Today's episode is a real treat. As a small part of our larger Goofball Show-alition, we had a live Q&A with the audience. Sarah and Leslie set you up with all the context and stuff that you need to listen to it with the right ears!
