This week, we talk about the exact opposite of what you'd expect if you only read the title, while still actually talking about those things. Not sure what we mean? Listen now & find out. This episode marks one full year of weekly Joker-Broker fun! Thanks for listening & joining us on this ride.

Good ol' fashioned stand up comedy, Instagram memes, Tweets, and TikTok videos. Sam & Andrew chat about the wide variety and style of comedy content found online, and how they think about their social media use for business too. They also ask a really big question that you should ask yourself too: If you could do anything, and you knew you wouldn't fail, what would you do?

Sam shares some of his tactics around what he calls the 'subtle art of texting & emailing', and Andrew prepares mentally, physically, and emotionally, for the roast battle of his life against a top-dog in the Vancouver comedy scene. Thanks for tuning in!

Andrew reminds us that we're in the 'highlight reel' phase of our journey, and then poses a really important question: do all those credits after your name actually matter? Sam shares a frustrating experience from the day, and how he reminds himself not to be spineless in those circumstances. If Sam sounds like he's ranting, it's cause he is! Thanks for tuning in.

Andrew is back in Vancouver and introduces, this week, his strategic and tactical changes to his timing on stage, finding the funny in new places! Sam shares his biggest learning's from the recent Young Broker Conference & shares some of his new found inspiration. Thanks for tuning in!

Sam's shares his tips to manage mistakes & misquotes when corresponding with insurance clients as a learning insurance broker. Andrew reflects on his experience as a feature act at Absolute Comedy over the last month, and what it means to 'middle'. Thanks for tuning in, be sure to subscribe!

Andrew's tour continues as he heads to Ottawa this week, and we explored the differences in various crowds' levels of sensitivity and seeing experiences as a game of numbers. Sam shares his latest project, Farsi Insurance Tips, and how he translates insurance products and the industry overall, for consumers!

Andrew & Sam are reunited in Toronto for this weeks show. Andrew introduces his detective-like approach to 'finding fun' on & off stage. Sam shares his secrets to being able to quickly recall his clients' unique characteristics. The audio on this one isn't perfect, and we apologize for that!

We all break through walls in our day to day lives. Andrew shares his experience as he explores new bits on stage, and how he breaks through his own barriers to find new 'funny'. Sam shares the lessons he's learnt about picking battles and knowing when to back down, with clients, underwriters, and others!

Andrew poses an important question: why do we even podcast? Sam comes up with too many reasons to count and it leads us to our newest segment 'discuss Andrew's latest comedy topic' (or something!). Sam shares his experience at the Young Broker Conference, why he thinks is valuable for all insurance brokers to attend, and what he's most excited about for the conference this year in June!
