Things I Learned in the First Year of Comedy I Didn't Know at the Start

Fact checking comedy is often a fool's errand. (Well sir, I checked, and the phrase "a bushy bushy blonde hairdo, surfin' USA" does not in fact appear in the Declaration of Independence.) But sometimes it's needed. Like now. Chris (@econ_comic) and Mike (@mlukas1111) workshop a premise at the end of the episode about the famous Everest-climbing quote "because it's there," which Mike mistakenly attributed to Davy Crockett. (Kidding). We thought it was Edmund Hillary, when in fact it was George Mallory who said it. In this episode, as one of Mike's pupils, Chris reflects on what he's learned in his first year doing comedy.
