What happens when you mix 80+ performers with 20+ comedy shows across 10+ venues?!

We're finding out right now during the Albuquerque Funny Fiesta. Consider this episode your guide to the weekend. Alex, Leslie, and Sarah dive into the schedule and highlight which shows you should check out.

Sarah dipped her toes into improv recently so the group talks about that and other opportunities for folks to dip their toes into all kinds of little artsy pools.

Not in a gay way.

Although, yeah, that way too.

We meant, like, she's leaving comedy after this mini tour she's on. Alex, Leslie, and Sarah discuss Ellen and other famous people who let us down.

This week Leslie shares an article with Alex and Sarah about, you guessed it: SNL.

Then the three deep dive into times when they've been disappointed by fellow performer IRL.

The Trío de Comedia dig into a recent Washington Post article about Parks & Rec's Ben Schwartz and his approach to long-form improv.

Do we disagree? Do we agree? What does this have to do with sketch and stand up?

You'll have to listen to find out.

We've talked about LA.

We've talked about NYC.

So, this week Leslie said it was Chicago's turn.

Alex, Sarah, and Leslie talk about one of the best comedy cities in the USA this week and Leslie shares more about her experience out there.

It's time for more coalitional comedy! This week Leslie, Sarah, and Alex take a look at another comic's bit and talk about what makes it so successful.

Go and follow today's comic: Jake Otero on all the things. You can see him regularly at Dry Heat Comedy Club in Albuquerque.

Alex went a'searchin' on the internet and came back with a bunch of tips from strangers about how to get funnier.

We go through the list and see if they pass the sniff test.

Now that Leslie is in the mix, we must now discuss who is the ultimate example of our powers combined?

Who is the comedy triple threat, able to tackle sketch, improv, and stand-up, able to them all look easy?

We dive in with our thoughts in this week's ep!

Alex and Sarah welcome Leslie to permanently join the team and represent sketch comedy on this podcast for the rest of her life.

To celebrate this momentous occasion, the team of three discuss the GOAT of sketch comedy: Saturday Night Live. Going into its 50th season, there was plenty to discuss!
