Live At The Go - Go

We got to have this great and insightful talk with comedy writer, Jon Gutierrez! Jason became familiar with Jon many years ago in the oddest place...a Facebook group for aspiring writers. They talked about those early days of trying to get a writing job for a late night show, coming up during the early heydays of UCB and taking more classes than any student in theater history, all the wild things he got to do there like wrestling with Donald Glover, writing for @Midnight and Mystery Science Theater 3000, his philosophy on writing, and much more!

No. 387 - Exploring Improv with Evan Forde Barden

Meet the incredible Rebecca Sohn! She is originally a New Jersey girl but has had so many adventures since leaving home at age 18. She describes her father and how he fostered her creativity by building a stage in their basement for her to give dancing performances. Her dad involved the whole family in co-writing a play, which was basically improvised and was produced at two local schools.
Her passion and love was ballet until age 16 when she tragically "grew out of a dancer’s body" and gave up her dream of being the Prima Ballerina of the World. 
She remembers her high school English teacher, Ms Bartow, who nurtured her students’ artistic sides.
At 18 she moved to Boston and recalled seeing an Improv Touring Company Show, but didn’t walk away thinking “This is what I want to do.”
A few years later she moved to the Bay Area of California and was able to attend school and knew she wanted to be an actor. But the acting classes were full so she enrolled in an improv class, with the thought it would help her acting.
While in SF she met Charna Halpern of the IO and was invited to Chicago and the rest was history! It was Charna who persuaded her to date Rebecca’s (now) husband, Rich Sohn!
To learn more you’ll have to listen to the podcast.

We have a great talk with NYC-based comedian and improviser Rob Penty. Jason and Rob discuss their time together on the team Glitter at the Magnet Theater and Rob's other Magnet improv teams, Sexy Baby and Wrath. Rob reflects on his initial foray into standup comedy and why he eventually gravitated towards improv, highlighting the supportive community aspect of improv versus the often isolating standup scene. He delves into his journey through different comedy formats, and provides insights into his philosophies on improv and comedy. Rob also shares thoughtful anecdotes about storytelling and the various techniques and methodologies he applies in when doing monologues. It's a great talk!
