Customer Reviews
Great, interesting, helpful
These guys do a great job. They are funny together and have great chemistry. This podcast is incredibly useful if you are a comic. And their perspective on everything is super interesting.
Even if you don’t do stand up and you’re just a big nerd who wants to know how the sausage is made, this podcast is all around great.
Learn from two of the best!
Great podcast to learn all the in and outs of comedy from two great comedians! You’ll learn a lot and be entertained at the same time. Very good stuff, take a listen and check out their stand up while you’re at it!
