Ep. 230: This Episode is a 1 (Ft. Tanner Coffman)

My guest makes his long-awaited return to Top Shelf Studios for another InTALLerable instant classic! Topics ranging from new Tap-to-Cat tech ideas, to fathers riding motorized scooters around Denver with their baby abreast, to the mom scams we’re all falling for; make some noise wherever you are for a stand-up comic who is a mere shaven mustache away from being cast to play the leading man in the live-action remake of ‘The Boss Baby’ — Tanner Coffman!Follow Tanner on Instagram @TrashBagTanner — Check out his live show: ‘Debate n’ Debunk’ every last Friday of the month at Node Art’s Collective!We discussed how plateauing feels like losing in the pursuit of artistic growth, Denver’s perhaps missing online presence of a comedy scene bursting with hilarious people, tailoring to the shrinking attention spans of Gen Z, and our newest addition to our studio: a podcast bodega cat named Olive.  Tall story short, we had one whole week of winter in Denver this year.  While at my day job, my dog, Maggie, suddenly stopped & pointed at something in the bushes. That’s when we found a struggling cat, who looked to be living outside, seeking shelter from the snow nestled into a gap in a staircase. She was too frightened to show herself for this episode, but don’t worry, Sean showed his ass with bad jokes enough for everyone. EATIN’ uncut in its full-smoked-glory is up for our supporters over at Patreon.com/InTALLerableIf you want to keep our show ad-free, human-powered, and independently-prepared, hop on over & join the ‘Heights’ — Only $2/month to support the show & get some of our first run of Merch!  As soon as your support reaches the cost of a hat, I will make you one using my own hands.  Basically you can get a free hat on top of some entertaining, unfiltered, human content, while supporting independent people having some laughs in a garage. FO & BW0:00 — Guest Intro1:00 — Downturn in Denver Scene?2:45 — Getting worse/Plateau4:00 — Tanner’s writing process5:45 — Discipline6:45 — Killer 10 minutes8:00 — Marathon Mindset10:00 — Reps matter11:30 — Perceived “rut”12:30 — Spot for Alt-Comedy needed13:30 — Funny People overfloweth14:15 — Missing Consistent Online Presence15:30 — Sean’s Dumb Idea17:30 — Sampler Pack of the Denver Scene18:30 — Tailoring to Gen Z20:00 — Cart before the Horse22:00 — Dogshit for 1 run through22:30 — Be Ready.23:30 — Wing Flip & Signature Station ID24:00 — New development: Bodega Studio Cat25:00 — Tap-to-Cat Tech26:30 — Sovereignty Cat in Need27:00 — Smoked Meat Insights28:30 — Comedy Fort & Bryce Peterson Shoutout29:45 — City-Boy Denver Review31:00 — Colorado has good Pizza?!32:00 — Living in bad spots33:30 — Tanner’s Time in Iowa34:30 — Crackheads over Old’s36:00 — Carrying the Shit from the Bottom39:00 — Positive outlook on the poo bag40:30 — Mom on the pod41:15 — Devil’s lettuce to Medicine43:00 — Crushing the average steps44:00 — InTALLerable Dad of the Week46:00 — Riding Scooters & Being a Woman: not easy47:00 — Biblical Baby Transport48:00 — Pay more by “bucket”49:00 — Inflation hitting the bread market50:00 — Want to retire this joke51:00 — Nobody Owns Anything52:45 — Changes in the scene54:30 — People are frustrated with the world55:30 — Ruts happen.56:30 — Do you Dream?57:30 — Tanner’s Reoccurring Dreams1:00:30 — EATIN’ Patreon.com/InTALLerble1:01:00 — After-Hours & Wing Review!1:02:15 — 0-1 Scale1:04:00 — Zen Challenge for Tanner1:05:00 — Tanner’s Gift (in progress)1:06:30 — Gus Rey Art Shoutout1:09:00 — Denver Traffic Cops (VOTE NO!)1:10:30 — Court tells ya to pound sand1:11:30 — Mom Scams1:14:00 — Betting on Dog Deterioration1:14:45 — ‘Heighting’1:15:30 — Plugs!1:16:15 — FO & BW
