Patchats

Irish born and Berlin based comedian Rob Moriarty sits down for a #patchat this week. We discuss his childhood and teen years growing up in Dublin, his battle with depersonalization and mental health, his foray into mixed martial arts, and how his tumultuous journey led him to comedy. And lots of stuff in between! In addition for the podcast we both re-watched Louie CK's 2007 special Live at the Beacon, and discussed its influence on us at the time as well as what we could take from it as we try to learn the craft of comedy today. Follow Rob on Instagram @robdoescomedy and on Facebook to stay up to date on his latest shows. If you enjoy the podcast please rate and review!

This week the Laugh at Pat podcast is joined by Berlin based comedian Mark Beadle. We discuss his childhood growing up in south London, the comedy programs that influenced him as a child, how he started doing stand up, and what led him to hosting shows in Berlin. As well as much much more, even some archeology talk!

ASMR parody is the only video on Laugh at Pat that's ever gotten any love from the algorithm, so I thought why not double down on #trends and make an Apple Unboxing ASMR parody video! Because if I've learned one thing after a year on Youtube it's that people love whispering and consumerism.

The Laugh at Pat podcast is back with its first ever election coverage, a German election special! This week, leading up to Sundays vote, I am joined by comedian and my resident German expert Chris Doering. We discuss how ballots are set up, what is being voted on, a little bit of how German parliament and ballot initiatives work, Angela Merkel, the German political party spectrum, and much more.

The Laugh at Pat podcast is back with Berlin based comedian and Guatemalan native Stephan Schieber. We discuss what his childhood was like in Guatemala, what it means to leave home, and his experience moving to Berlin. We also covered our thoughts on airports, including the new Berlin airport, and of course comedy.

Laugh at Pat is back with the best Sports announcer parody about nose picking anywhere on Youtube! That's right the Everyday Announcing team is back on the call to see if Patrick can manage to pick his nose during a romantic dinner. If you're a nose picker don't forget to rate and review!!

Laugh at Pat is Back! With the Fischcast 2.0, covering my summer in Alaska doing commercial salmon fishing. In this podcast I talk about the details of life in Bristol Bay Alaska working as a fisherman, I answer the questions I get most frequently about this "career", and I share some notes, video, and photos I took throughout the summer.

The Laugh at Pat podcast is joined this week by my good friend Ehsan who grew up in Tehran, Iran, before moving to Berlin where we met. In this patchat we discuss what it was like growing up in Tehran, the political system in Iran, and the reality of living under economic sanctions. We also discuss his experience moving to Germany, cultural differences, and feeling at home.

Laugh at Pat is proud to present CHRISTMAS!! In July, whatever the fuck that is. To celebrate this consumerism brain child I sit by the crackling fire with soothing christmas music playing in the background, and read you one of my favorite childhood Christmas stories, The Dog Who Found Christmas. Listen along as we discover that one of my childhood favorites is in fact one of the most depressing christmas books of all time that is not fit for children or dog lovers. Don't worry it is sad, but like in a funny way. If you enjoyed the video share it with friend to say Merry Christmas! (in july)
