In this two part episode, we talk with Steve Poggi, a comic who started out in St. Louis 9 years ago and now lives in San Francisco. In Part B, Steve talks about how a break up spurred him to try stand up, his methods of dealing with stage fright, and how his style developed from Hedberg-esque to storytelling. 

In this two part episode, we talk with Steve Poggi, a comic who started out in St. Louis 9 years ago and now lives in San Francisco. In Part A, Steve's mom Karen discusses her history with Tarot cards and using meditation to overcome mental illness and loss. Both Steve and Karen share stories about spiritual encounters. Amy and Jeremy both have their cards read, which is only about 80% as awkward as it sounds. It's a pretty interesting hour.

Josh Beck and Tree Sanchez talk bucket lists, surreally bad shows they've performed at, and cultures we all know very little about. Like all of our guests, they were deeply impressed by our professionalism and poise.

Bobby Jaycox talks movies, ghosts, and working with TJ Miller (among other things) in this slightly longer than usual episode. If I were a marketing person, I'd call it "super sized" or "bonus extra more fun for your money great time," but really Jeremy and Bobby just have a lot of problems with The Dark Knight Rises.

In this episode, Michigan comedian Zach Martina and his girlfriend Emily join us to talk about the differences between the St. Louis and Detroit comedy scenes and the mechanics of travelling to do shows. There is a lot of talk about food and a surprising amount of murder and intrigue. We also learn that Jeremy is fine with cannibalism and Amy cannot sit in a chair properly. Podcast!

Our sometimes sound guy and hilarious comedian/ hard working showrunner Brandon Judd joined us for a very interesting and very funny conversation. He has a messed up nose and some guy in China blew up his car on accident. Also, more fortune cookies, purely by coincidence.

Hilarious comedian Nathan Orton joined us for a great chat in Jeremy's dining room. He talked about how his brother is a famous WWE wrestler, and that causes a lot of weird and crazy problems on Facebook. We also all got fortune cookies, and Amy found a weird Christian message on a candy cane. This was quite possibly the funniest episode we have ever done.

Kris Wernowsky runs one of the very best monthly standup comedy showcases in all of St. Louis. He is also a comedian in his own right, and has been a working journalist for 10 years. Kris told us probably the craziest and most entertaining individual story we have heard from a guest. Give it a listen, and like us on Facebook and subscribe on iTunes.

Kelsey McClure joins us to talk about the comedy scene in St Louis. She brought a fart gun. She also talked about her show and website Comedy In The Lou. 

Happy New Year everybody! Comedian Max Fitzgerald joined us for lucky episode number 13, and we discussed Amy's past respiratory issues, storks, desks, weird foreskins, and comedy. We also talked about the insane facebook page for the new Funnybone in Valley Park. You should go check it out, because it's so weird.

Also, Jeremy recently did an interview on a blog called Weird! Why Aren't You Vegan? if you are interested in that, and he will be writing regular blog posts on a site called Comedy In the Lou. We will also be posting links to this podcast there, so go support that.
