The SIDE DISH is a new regular series where Josh and Jake (and sometimes guests) discuss the previous episode of The MEAT and break down scenes and talk about general improv theory and concepts. This episode uses episode 156 with Andrew Stanton and Kait Thompson as a jumping off point. Josh and Jake discuss playing characters, different approaches to initiating off of monologues, and how to be an active and useful "voice of reason" or "straight man" in scenes, among other topics. If you like this episode and you want more, you can sign up for our $5 Patreon at www.patreon.com/TheMEATImprov to get access to this and every future SIDE DISH.
