When Taylor Tomlinson took a stand up workshop with her dad when she was 16, she had no way of knowing it would be the start of a new career. From churches to late-night talk shows to her own Netflix special, Quarter Life Crisis, Tomlinson has seen that career rise to heights she never could have imagined in a short time.

We chat with Tomlinson about her stand up career (including the decision to pivot away from being a Christian comedian), her Netflix special and what it’s like to have your career take off during a global pandemic.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • Interstitial – “Vishnu Meets Funk” and “Ancient Ritual” by Lucas Perný & Miloslav Kollar
  • End – “West Benders” by Toussaint Morrison

If you’ve heard the phrase “He’s just not that into you,” then you are familiar with Greg Behrendt’s work. Behrendt’s work as a script supervisor on Sex and the City, which led to him co-authoring the 2004 New York Times bestseller He’s Just Not That Into You. However, before launching into that wildly successful career, Behrendt started out as a stand up comedian.

He returns to those stand up roots with his new album Why Are You In Here? We talked to him about the new album, his thoughts on comedy as a whole and how Margaret Cho is responsible for his career.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “Bankin'” by Jaisen Waterfall

Hobo Radio 409 – You’ll never find a husband (ft. Nikki Black)

Amy Schumer, comedy, Featured, Hobo Radio, improv, Kurt Metzger, Nikki Black

Comedian and Inside Amy Schumer writer Kurt Metzger garnered a lot of media attention for a recent Facebook post questioning the UCB’s decision to remove an instructor after multiple women came forward to say the man had raped them. One of the most entertaining and insightful responses to Metzger’s Facebook tirade was an article entitled “Kurt Metzger Needs to Shut Up” written by comedian Nikki Black.

Joel Murphy and Molly Regan liked the article so much that they tracked down Black and asked her to come onto the podcast. This week, they talk to Black about being thrust into the spotlight, rape culture in comedy and her battle with cancer. It’s a heartfelt discussion about the struggles women face in the comedy community and the art of finding comedy in tragedy.

What inspired Nikki Black to write the opinion piece? Why are her bangs so controversial? Will she ever find a husband? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “Can’t Relive the Party” by Toussaint Morrison
