They also discuss improv techniques and comedy styles. Weekly episodes with Ryan and Alec, and perhaps sometimes... special guests! (Disclaimer: We cannot guarantee the news stories will be accurately depicted during the improv. In fact... they may be depicted somewhat inaccurately... Hmm... Actually its probably best to assume the improv doesn't represent these real world news stories at all...) Intro music and voiceover by Alec Shea (@alecsheamusic)
