@NoSuggestionPod presents a new improv comedy series: The World Series! There’s a wide world outside of comedy, a world full of people with interesting careers, experiences, and philosophies, that have nothing to do with the world of comedy. Listen to the No Suggestion family ruthlessly mine those worlds for comedy!

This week we get to hang with my long-time pal, poet, writer, publisher, entrepreneur, Long Islander, and karaoke enthusiast, Sarah Osit (@funny_boness). Co-host Aston Hollins (@astonhollins), and guest co-host Tom Achillies (@tomachilles), and myself really learn a lot getting to know Sarah. We chat with Sarah about independent press, Four Loko, and her dad.

Our convo with Sarah inspires some ridiculous improv comedy scenes, including scene about a son trying to shake his moms suspicions that he's high. We had a wonderful time getting to know Sarah. Sarah hosts the open mics, @bad_wordss, and @deadpetessociety, both of which all poets are welcome at. Tune in to laugh and and get to know her with us.

Another @NoSuggestionPod episode with me extemporizing to myself, and to you, doing solo improv scenes based on my monologuing. I talk about the Knicks in the finals, whether or not I should leave New York, dating and being hard on myself, and more.

I am starting to get into the groove of these solo episodes. I'm starting to really dig deep and bare my soul. And these solo improv scenes are actually pretty funny and revealing, particularly a scene where we peek in on a lone hiker who's stumbled across a bear in the woods. Check it out.

We're privileged to be joined on @NoSuggestionPod this week by brilliant actor, voice actor, playwright, professor, cartoonist, Story Pirate, character/sketch/improv comedian, Alessandro King (@alessandromking)!

Co-host Aston Hollins (@astonhollins) and Alessandro were classmates at Sarah Lawrence College who haven't seen each other in a while, so there's a lot to catch up on. We get to chat with Alessandro about the difference between New Zealand and Australia, legendary Sarah Lawrence comedy group, The Lampoon, the beloved Story Pirates podcast (@storypirates) Alessandro is often featured on, how Alessandro's writing changes when he is doing comedy versus when he isn't, and much more!

We also get a lot of really funny improv scenes in this week including a scene about a movie theater concessions attendant turned rugged cowboy. Alessandro is such a gentle, and whip smart soul, and was so fun to play with. It was great getting to know him and play with him, as you'll hear for yourself. Dig into this episode!

@nosuggestionpod presents a new improv comedy series: The World Series!

There’s a wide world outside of comedy, a world full of people with interesting careers, experiences, and philosophies, that have nothing to do with the world of comedy. 

Listen to the No Suggestion family ruthlessly mine those worlds for comedy!

This subject of this World Series episode is my long-time friend, Brooklynite, Poconos native, entrepreneur, and co-owner of Bushwick institution, Cobra Club (@cobraclubbk), Julia Kingrea (@cobracookie138).

Joined by guest co-host improv comedians Micheal Bird (@thecosmicbird), Aaron Linker (@alinklink), and April Sickler (@asickler), we chat with Jules about everything from yearning to move to New York at as a youth, how she started working in bars the day she turned 21, to her secrets to building a bar and business, The Misfits, what are the components of a truly great bartender, the movie Tootsie, and much much more. We dig in and get to know a lot about Jules during this hang.

We also squirrel around and get into a ton of hysterical improv scenes, including a scene full of Christopher Walken's who get simultaneously more faithful and less faithful incrementally as the scene goes on. This episode means so much to me. It's so wild and fun, but also gives me a chance to get to know a really good friend much better. Tune in and get to know Jules Kingrea with us! We know you'll fall head over heels for her like we did.

After almost four years of doing @NoSuggestionPod, we've reached an important milestone: I finally got to have actor, writer, podcaster, teacher, stand-up comic, and my favorite improvisor of all-time, Kurt Braunohler (⁠@kurtbraunohler⁠), on the show!

Co-host Aston Hollins (⁠@astonhollins⁠), and guest co-host Xavier Pearson, and I were honored to hang with Kurt for an hour. We got to chat with Kurt about what it's like to be back in NYC after 13 years in LA, about hosting the show Hot Tub with his friend Kristen Schaal for 20 straight years, his comedy philosophy, improv notes from Jason Mantzoukas, the Flight of the Navigator, and much much more.

And be sure to pull up on Kurt at ⁠@unionhallny⁠ first Wednesday of each month for ⁠@coldplungecomedy⁠. And be sure to check out ⁠@thebananaspodcast⁠!

Welcome to our second installment of @NoSuggestionPod Presents: The World Series! There’s a wide world outside of comedy, a world full of people with interesting careers, experiences, and philosophies, that have nothing to do with the world of comedy. Listen to the No Suggestion family ruthlessly mine those worlds for comedy!

This week our guest is hip-hop podcaster, brand ambassador for cannabis company Viola (@viola), and community builder, Trap Bradshaw (@trap_bradshaw_gtkprs). Trap and I actually are meeting in person for the firs time on this episode after I've spent nearly four years participating in his ADHD hip-hop culture community on the social platform, Clubhouse. In those rooms I've been part of some of the most vibrant, infuriating, informative, and revelatory hip-hop conversations, and in those chat rooms crossed paths with people like Joe Budden and 9th Wonder.

The brilliant Elke Reid (@elketv), and Pedro Lee (@pedroblee), guess cohost with me as we chat with Trap about his podcasts with Glasses Malone (@glassesloc), how mysterious Trap is, Drake v Kendrick, the scourge of KRS-One, and much more!

We also do a ton really silly and funny improv inspired by Trap's stories, including a scene where a stoic man on a date at Outback Steakhouse is challenged to open up. It was great to get to hang with Trap on this episode, and I know you'll have as much listening to this as we had hanging out. Tune in!

So thrilled and giddy to have my old comrade, actor, musician, entrepreneur, show producer, music producer, podcast producer, engineer, and improv comedian, and North Coast-er, Doug Widick (@douglaswidick) on @NoSuggestionPod this week.

Co-host Aston Hollins (@astonhollins), and guest co-host Boris Khaykin (@theborisk), and I, have such a fun time gabbing with Dougie about all kinds of stuff, from loofah etiquette, Adam Sandler, to Doug's early improv influences I Eat Panda's and Baby Wants Candy, to the formation of North Coast hip-hop improv team (@northcoastnyc), to entrepreneurship, and much much more.

We also get some really fun improv scenes in, including a scene that takes place at a very high-risk museum. I've been angling to have Doug on for so long, and his appearance did not disappoint one bit. We have such a great time on this episode, and we really get a chance to know more about my old pal Dougie Parm. We know you'll have as much fun at this hang as we did.

This is another @NoSuggestionPod episode of one-person improv scenes inspired by a deranged monologue to myself. This episode I talk about my great great grandmother who died at 109, the kind of women I can date, the ethics of power, braving winter, how to make improv of use, The Bourne Identity, and more.

I get into a bunch of solo improv scenes, including a scene where we find a college youth's grieving the passing of a girlfriend.

Tried this experiment for the first time a month ago, and this time goes better, or worse, depending on your POV. These solo episodes are a more candid trip inside my mind. I try to be more honest in them than usual, and I try to go farther in my playing than usual. Check it out, if you dare!

Still have spots left open for my May 23rd & 24th weekend acting intensive, How to Get in Trouble. Offering discounts to anyone who's made money in comedy or dance in the last year.

A pleasure to be joined on @NoSuggestionPod this week by one of my oldest and dearest friends, actor, filmmaker, activist, teacher at Brooklyn Comedy Collective (@comedybrooklyn), and New York's quintessential clown, Jeff Seal (@jeffoseal).

Co-host Aston Hollins (@old2beginopenmic), and I, have such a good time catching up with our good friend Jeff as we chat about how the fateful day Jeff and I met, the history of clown prince Bill Irwin, whether or not Jeff should have done the UCB, stand-up being the hardest of all comedy, the harrowing process of editing the documentaries Jeff makes with the Libby Brothers (@libbeybrothers), and much much more.

We also have so much fun doing improv with Jeffie on this episode, which includes a scene about trading card vendor meeting a Gen-Z kid who doesn't know what baseball is. This episode is close to my heart because Jeff and I have taken a lot of this crazy journey to be artists and comedians in New York simultaneously. It's fun to hear war stories, and talk trash. We have such a good time this episode, and Jeff is so funny. Check it out!

So blessed on this unruly, unhinged, and beautiful episode of @NoSuggestionPod to hang with actor, rapper, songwriter, producer, Brooklyn native, and improv comedian, Steve Jeanty (@yojeanty), as well his beatboxing collaborator, the great Exacto (@exactobbx).

Guest co-host David Rey Martinez (@davidreymartinez), and I, go on a breathless romp of a conversation with these two, covering everything from everyone in New York thinking they are special, dialects in improv, Steve being raised in Long Island, his college going bankrupt, the one thing that makes his dad laugh, and we hear beautiful love stories from both Steve and Exacto.

We also get in a ton of improv scenes, including some dope improvised hip-hop. This episode is just so fun, so funny, and so dope. We had such a great time with Steve Jeanty and Exacto. You absolutely have to tune in join the party. We know you'll have as much fun as we're having.
