Twin Ports Comedy

When comedians get drunk, which is frequently, you'll never guess what will come out of their mouths next!

Dustin, Dustin, and Dustin get together to discuss Dustin's comedy, recent shows by Dustin, and a surprising new event in Dustin's life.

Pete and Chad crash the Caddy Shack open mic to join a cavalcade of comedians. Also, serious technical issues ensue (which is why this episode ends so abruptly).

Pete, Chad, Brekken, and Emen talk about the stacked lineup of shows this summer, horrible movies, Chad's brief playwriting career, and Brekken's obsession with an economically irresponsible amount of eggs.

Guests Patrick and Kaitlin join Pete and the other one (Brad?) to celebrate the 50th episode by catching up, talking about the good ol' days, and engaging in our favorite Twin Ports Comedy Podcast tradition.

Dustin Fawcett joins Pete and Chad to discuss recent shows while they collectively get distracted talking about food, as is tradition.

Pete and Chad are joined by Adam and Roddy as they discuss the recent smash hit roast battle, and also the nuances of the US Postal Service for some reason.

Chad is joined by Grace, Brekken, and Dustin as they discuss the brand new heckle mic at the Jade, all the shows we have in April, and argue about what day of the week it is.

Chad sits down with Danielle Thralow and Joe Moiser live at the Superior Tavern to discuss the state of the podcast, local comedy goings on, and several things that are best not discussed in polite company.

We debut our new miniseries in which Bob Oesterriech interviews comedians one on one, starting with local comedian Chad Gallo, who Bob definitely picked because he thought it would be interesting and not just because Chad happens to own all of the equipment.

Pete and Chad sit down with Sydni Stephens to talk about her triumphant return to the Twin Ports, what life is like on the road, and whatever other inappropriate topic that Pete could think to bring up.

The gang starts off by discussing upcoming shows before getting derailed and discussing Adult Swim shows and other topics that Brekken has a convenient collection of impressions for.

Pete, Chad, and Brekken try to talk about the election, and then talk about everything but the elections, including cereal, eye surgery, and more cereal.

After the hiatus, the gang gets back together to recap all the shows you missed and everything that's coming up in the Twin Ports.

Pete, Chad, Bob, Brekken, and Sam talk about recent contests and shows on the horizon. They also discuss celebrity crushes, dating advice, and hot girl summer.

Cricker, Bob and Buttermilk join the pod. The gang talks about the upcoming contest, then segue almost immediately into conversations about long arms and Macho Man Randy Savage.

After talking for over 2 hours and forgetting to hit record, Pete, Chad, and a litany of new guests try again at comedian Danielle Thralow's house for a discussion of what the scene is like for newcomers.

Pete and Chad sit down with local favorite Bob Oesterreich to discuss the various ins and outs of comedy. Then, Brekken shows up and we all forgot what we were talking about.

Due to scheduling changes, the Twin Ports Comedy Podcast will now drop on Fridays.Brittany, Brekken, and Cricker stop by to hang with Pete and Chad. They discuss upcoming shows, the state of local comedy, and explore their budding sexuality.

Pete, Chad, Buttermilk, Brekken, and Cricker talk about a variety of subjects that can't be confined to one cohesive subject. 

Pat is back, thanks to the magic of technology! He sits down with Pete and Chad to discuss important updates in their lives, the current state of Twin Ports Comedy, and the differences between the Minnesota and Florida comedy scenes.

He'll be disc golfing, bowling, and doing comedy. We also discuss performing comedy for a Bible study group, and we go head-to-head with local new juggernaut 'The Bark'!

Dustin, Brittany, Sam Bondhus, and Chad join the pod as we broadcast live from the legendary Gopher Hole Comedy Club in Duluth, Minnesota. Look for their great showcases on the 1st Friday of every month! It turns out that recording in an echoey basement, near an industrial heater, creates some bad audio (we apologize). We eventually break some news that makes Pete cry.

We have another big get together at Pete's house! We talk to some newer members of the comedy scene - Brekken and Kwat - and ask them about their experiences thus far. Brittany, Kyle and Chad also make an appearance and we talk about movies and video games... so you know we're running out of topics! We also discuss our upcoming comedy competition, and the launch of twinportscomedy.com.

If you enjoy a dozen comedians shouting over each other for 50 minutes, then have we got a treat for you! Pete, Pat, Nana, Brekken, Emily Spinach, Brittany, Kyle, Sam Bondhus, Gavin, Chad and Eduardo stop by the pod to talk about recent shows, dating, bombing, hosting, and drug addiction. If "a show about nothing" is good enough for Seinfeld, then it's good enough for you!

Back by popular demand, Brittany and Kaitlin host the pod again. They interview Dustin and Sam about a variety of comedy topics. The guys also recorded a podcast but it was mostly drunken ramblings, and will hopefully never see the light of day!

Pete and Pat failed to book guests in a timely manner. Fortunately, Bob, Brittany, Chad and Kyle were willing to get drunk and chat after an open mic. We discuss recent shows, heckler etiquette, and bold new ventures in the Twin Ports Comedy scene.

On this episode, Brittany and Kaitlin host the podcast! They discuss why women don't want to date comedians... and that topic alone filled 85 minutes! They probably could've kept going, but the microphones were running low on batteries. This is a must-listen for any perpetually lonely comedian ;(

Roast Battle IV is in the books, and a large crew stopped by the podcast to break it all down from multiple angles! Pete and Kyle discuss the shame of losing in the first round. Roastmaster Sam and Producer Pat talk about what goes into a successful Roast Battle. And we interview the championship match roasters, Brittany and Adam. Then we top it all off with the contestants reading their roasts that they didn't get to use on stage.

Kaitlin and Chad join the podcast. We discuss our recent adventure in Gilbert, MN; including getting invited to a strip club. Kaitlin discusses the highs and lows (mostly lows) of being in a relationship with a comedian, then she deconstructs Pete and Chad. Then we make predictions for the upcoming Roast Battle.

Emily Spinach joins the podcast to discuss the recent ass-beating she received while just trying to enjoy breakfast at a local Duluth eatery. She also discusses her job as a 9-1-1 dispatcher, and her carefree approach to stand-up comedy.

You asked for it and we delivered! Fans asked us to break down our Jeffrey Epstein predictions. Chad invites us in on his annual tradition of listing foreign objects that were removed from people's rectums. And we drink too much :/

It's just Pete and Pat in this episode because we forgot to book guests! They recap the highs and lows of recent comedy shows. They also talk about random comedy theories, from getting booked to "the stink of the road". Feel free to comment on how wrong we are about comedy.

Frequent guest Chad Gallo joins the pod, along with infrequent guest Kyle Barber. We discuss our thoughts on crowd work and Matt Rife. Then we get drunk and solve every problem in comedy. Also mentioned: childhood divorce trauma. :)

Danielle Thralow joins the podcast to discuss our weekend performing comedy in Canada. As you can guess by the title, things don't go according to plan.  We discuss our successes and failures from the weekend, and the finer points of smuggling weapons contraband into foreign countries.

In this week's episode, we sit down with Chad Gallo and Sam Bondhus. We discuss the finer points of comedy styles, breaking down audience demographics, Chad's possible retirement, and the most famous people we've ever met.

Pat got sick so this podcast came out a bit later than usual. Luckily, the Twin Ports Comedy scene always has some comedians on hand to entertain the fans. Dustin Fawcett and Bob Oesterreich join us to drink a few beers, and discuss a few comedy topics.

Adam Lowrey, Jon Shinkle & Chad Gallo stop by the pod to talk about a string of recent comedy shows, Minnesota audiences, pizza, and Russians (White). Pat gives up the co-hosting chair, but can't help chiming in.

Pete, Pat and Kaitlin meet Sam14 in Minneapolis to watch a Mullets hockey game. Do the Mullets win? Does it matter? Then we sit down and drop the puck in my brother's living room for a little friendly chit chat.
