Justin and Kelley remember what Will Smith forgot.

This is easily our most inspiring episode, and that's saying a lot. Joining Xavier and I in the Radio Free Brooklyn Studio's is From Justin to Kelley, AKA Countdown Theater's Justin Peters and Kelley Buttermore (@jtkimprov). They are veteran NYC improvisors who perform mostly out of town. They've cultivated a deliberate, highly collaborative approach to improv they call "improv without ideas" that they perform all over the country, as well as running their own festivals. We talk to Justin and Kelley about how their partnership formed out of the ruins of a failed Magnet house team, how three high school students guided them to doing their first road show, playing to win versus the creation of trust, admitting that you care even though it's not cool, Xavier and I update them on the current NYC improv scene, and we meditate on choosing a life of vulnerability. We also get some super funny and committed improv scenes in, including a son avenging the death of mother who died enjoying a documentary, and two hipsters two cool to admit they are standing in the middle of a bodega on fire. Justin and Kelley have so so so much going on, they're teaching so many workshops and making so much comedy. Follow them! Thank you for listening!
