You’re Not Funny

In this episode, Chris and Adam wear clothing before a live studio audience. Phew.

Let’s talk about sketch, baby. Let’s talk about you and me and this contrived scenario we seem to be in.

Chris and Adam explore anticomedy. Or ant-y comedy.

Chris just got back from a road trip, and wants to know if Adam has ever gone on tour. Inevitably this leads to tips about checking your room for bedbugs.

Chris talks about all sorts of comedy canon shows that he doesn’t really like, and Adam keeps bringing up nudity. It gets awkward.

Why create? What's the relationship between audience and creator? Is there anything worse than fame?

Adam emceed the talky bit of the Megaphonic party a few weeks ago, and so he and Chris discuss their approaches to helping audiences make it through the night.

Adam’s new sitcom is picked up by Netflix, while Chris’s Edinburgh show gets an unexpected award. Oh, wait, no. April Fools, dammit.

How do you open a show? What does the opening joke (or opening song) do?

Chris and Adam discuss the effects of alcohol, pot, and whatnot on performing (and on the rest of your life).
