The First Left-Handed Caveman

from Messed-Up To Set-Ups - A MichaelHalcomb.Live Podcast · host Michael Halcomb

Hey, Friends! Episode 93 of The Messed-Up To Set-Ups Podcast is here! In this one, I get into the creative chaos of joke writing with the absolutely hilarious Johnny Watson. We talk about the absurdity of the first left-handed caveman and brainstorm some wild scenarios where prehistoric life meets modern comedy. Johnny shares the origins of his unique joke concepts and some thoughts on how everyday conversations spark comedic gold. After punching up his joke, we do some on-the-spot comedy and explore the art of improvisation. As always, listeners and viewers get a behind-the-scenes look at the comedic process. Whether you’re a seasoned comic or just love a good laugh, you won’t wanna miss this one.
