Thursday Dec 22, 2022
Thursday Dec 22, 2022
Leonard and Nick talk acronyms, narrowly avoid the disaster of going into a Beavis and Butt-Head bit, and talk about how entering comedy later in their adulthood has affected their comedy careers.
Young Boston-area comedian Zach Valencia loses his watch but eventually shows up for a great interview before performing at Craft Brew Underground. He talks about his start of comedy, running mics with friends. We take time to appreciate his mustache and his dedication to his academics. We also talk about the fun of producing shows and efforts to get into comedy festivals.
