Dennis Has A Podcast

It was awesome to finally have the wonderful Leenie O'Connor on DHAP before this week's Student Driver show. I talk to Leenie about her transition from musical theater towards comedy, from Chicago to New York, and from one career to another. Leenie also shares her experience and growth with TM, her passion for running, and so much more!

While I'm getting ready to settle in for some Student Driver this past Sunday (and every Sunday, 7:30pm in The PIT Underground), Dana Shulman comes up to me and was, like, "Hey. Do you want to record a podcast?" Obviously. Yes. So, after their show on Sunday, all eight members of Student Driver who did the show on Sunday joined me in The PIT Attic to talk about their time as a team, their start in improv, what each of the comedy super powers are and so much more!

Jill Shackner is an actor, a singer, a voice artist, and so much more, and it was awesome to talk to her about her career in acting from her youth, the day she got the call and taped a sketch on Colbert within hours, the time she accidently sang the wrong words in an arena full of people, and what she's learned is most important to her, personally and professionally, after being in the industry as long as she has. Jill is currently doing voice over work for Cotton, so definitely keep your ears out for that, and you can learn more about Jill at JillShackner.com!

Alex and Jonathan of Kiss On The Lips join me in the attic of The PIT to talk about their progression of performing comedy in basements in college, to performing in basements in the city, to finally, you know, performing where they may be natural light. We also touch on Chris Christie's love of snacks, my lack of knowledge of New Jersey geography, how their comedy has evolved since the beginning of college, the importance or lack their of of trying different mediums to pursue comedy, and meaning and lastingness of success, and so much more.
