158 - 2 The POTATOES - Improv Nerd Talk with Josh & Jake & Sarah Claspell (based on ep 159)

From our new weekly podcast The Potatoes where we talk improv approach and technique. This week we talk to Sarah Claspell about balancing the silly with the grounded. Sarah talks leaning on her grounding approach to playing with Cardinal Redbird and how she teaches to that. We also talk weird world scenes, how to take the set-up from first beats to heightened silliness in the second and third beats. Other topics include how to embrace improv styles and approaches that aren't your own, justification and some exercises for grounding the silliness.
