The Barone Zone

This improvised sitcom follows the continuing adventures of the Barone Boys – Lynbrook University’s hottest new co-eds and the hosts of Long Island’s favorite TV rewatch podcast, “The Barone Zone.” In each episode, Alex, Adam, and Mike careen through a long-form improv scene inspired by an episode of “Everybody Loves Raymond,” carefully sound designed to immerse you in beautiful Lynbrook, New York. At the end, the Barone Boys dissect the source material and rate Ray’s performance on their patented Baronmeter, but remember – it’s not really about the show.
