The Comedy Bureau Field Report Ep. 157: Addi Somekh & Better Living Through Balloons
To our knowledge, there is no single joke ever written that can transcend all language barriers and bring people joy and make them laugh. However, internationally renowned and celebrated balloon twister/artist, Addi Somekh, has made folks all over the planet from virtually every background and identity smile/laugh/cry with joy through his craft of fashioning improvised balloon hats based off the aura he gets from them. Addi isn’t a comedian per se, but he’s very likely made more different types of people laugh than the majority of comedians in history. Thus, we follow Addi, on this week’s TCB Field Report, through his journey and philosophy that makes life better through simple, pure joy of some of the most intricate and exuberant balloon hats you’ve ever seen.
