Podcast guest Tyrel Borowitz returns for a swift episode of interrogation about his life, improvisation and the company he co-founded, Cape Ann Improv . A West-coaster by upbringing, setting up new roots in the East has done him well - though the ball bearing really starts going when Ed starts to pick Tyrel’s brains about improv itself. Listen Now!

Audrey and Brett host the delightful Lauren Bancroft ( twitter , website ) who explains in full the healing powers of comedy (and how improv makes us all harder, better, faster bartenders with thicker hair growth). Her current hosting gig at Headliners delivers the titillating tale of a blonde heckler, and though the NH comedy scene is like one big all-male family (they reproduce asexually), thankfully Lauren has the wits - and tight child-themed T-shirts - to thrive.

Podcast Debate! Pressure builds between spokespeople Lucas Miller (Mike Underhill) and Melinda Valenti (Kiki Samko) as they excessively disagree how many languages are truly necessary in our modern age. Esperanto, the universal “swiss army knife” lanugage, is underdeveloped (*not yet developed) but can it really cover the VAST depths of all spoken expression? And how scary is it to hear Brett and Ed try speaking in binary?? Siri is throwing her coded hands in the air and Bono is designing the ne...
