Peter takes a leap. (Originally published November 15th, 2015).

#3 Off the Cliff

Basements, dim back rooms, the dive-iest of dive bars, at 9:00 PM on a weeknight: this is where comedy is born. Not at The Apollo or on HBO, but at open mic nights. This is where all great comics get their start and where the bad ones toil and sweat in the hopes of maybe, one day, becoming less bad.  Peter Bresnan happens to be the latter type, and TELL ME I'M FUNNY is a new podcast series that follows his attempts to succeed as a stand-up comedian, presented as candidly as possible, good jokes and bad ones. Follow him in his sometimes funny, sometimes sad, sometimes bizarre journey through the lower circles of comedy.
