The Comedy Bureau Field Report Ep. 21: Emma Willmann & Outside

News, The Comedy Bureau Field Report

Emma Willmann has pioneered, like so few have, into the great unknown of doing stand-up in person in an indoors venue under the shadow of COVID-19. She also has driven all around the the U.S. of A and getting tested and quarantining from coast to coast. As this week’s guest on TCB Field Report, she zooms with TCB’s Jake Kroeger about her hopping from city-to-city and the caution she observes in an ever-changing landscape of even thinking about doing stand-up in person in this current moment. Also, they get into some quick-ish takes on the cancellation of Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj, the developing crisis at Ellen, Lilly Singh’s upcoming new sketch special, and an entire sketch festival going virtual from Austin, TX.

Follow Emma @emmawillmann on Instagram and listen to Emma’s Bunker and Inside the Closet

Shout Outs: Calise Hawkins Is 40 AF, Super Serious, Joe List “I Hate Myself”, Richard Jeni, Eddie Griffin

Please Enjoy the New, Decidedly Non-COVID-19 Focused Podcast “Confronting Demons with Megan Stalter”
April 1, 2020
News
comedy podcasts, forever dog, megan stalter

While a good deal of new podcasts right now are first hand accounts of millennials being stuck inside, there are still plenty of other podcasts that would rather offer you a brief mental vacation to other places with other people that really have nothing to do with what’s going on right now with the global COVID-19 pandemic.

One of those new podcasts, oddly enough, is called Confronting Demons with Megan Stalter. Though the title suggests some sort of aggro-self help show with a plethora of very special guests or live callers. Stalter turns that format on its head by playing to her strengths of being playfully confrontational. Whether to guests that “never agreed” to come on (including Chris Gethard and Chelsea Peretti) to her brother Nick, Stalter has quite the knack for toeing the line of lashing out in the most hysterical way possible.

In general, Stalter is such a wild, fun burst of energy on stage and you can feel it in how rambunctious this podcast is. No matter where she goes, she keeps guests (no matter how “in on it” they are) on their toes and Confronting Demons ends ups being anything but that (which we’re thankful for as that’s all of what we’ve been all doing being stuck wherever you are in isolation).

Give a listen and have a grand ol’ time with Confronting Demons with Megan Stalter from Forever Dog, available wherever you listen to podcasts.

Office Ladies, The Office Recap Podcast with Angela Kinsey and Jenna Fischer, Has Just Launched

Even after years of being off the air, the American version of The Office still endures as millions of people’s favorite comedy that they will rewatch again and again. 

So, the idea that The Office stars Angela Kinsey and Jenna Fischer would want to recap the series and share insider details seems like a home run. Indeed, Office Ladies, their recently launched podcast on Earwolf, does just that. They’ve just dropped their first episode recapping the pilot and, from listening to it, it’s clear that if you love The Office at all, you’ll very easily want to subscribe and so many already have. The love that Kinsey and Fischer have for the show (and for each other) makes for a sort of warm, nostalgic, quilted blanket that features so many details that you might have not noticed until they told you about it.

So, get into Office Ladies here or wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts.

The “Get Rich Nick” Podcast Both Investigates Actual Ideas to Get Money Quick and Is Delightful Along the Way

Nick Vatterott and Nick Turner, both mastered in their on-stage silliness as comedians, take a serious turn, albeit a slight one, for their new podcast Get Rich Nick.

Each episode has both Nicks legitimately try out different methods of making money real quick, taking whatever consequences and mishaps come along their way (so you don’t have to!). Throughout, Nick and Nick maintain a level of goofiness to have Get Rich Nick be funny while discovering something like donating plasma isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be. Other episodes cover betting on racehorses and doing TaskRabbit and have been very enjoyable journeys thus far.

They’re just a few episodes in, but Get Rich Nick is definitely worth an early subscribe. Please do so here or wherever you listen to your podcasts.

If You’ve Enjoyed Relationship Advice from Moshe Kasher and Natasha Leggero, Get Into “The Endless Honeymoon Podcast”

For years now, Moshe Kasher and Natasha Leggero, as a comedy power couple, have been dishing out pretty hilarious and insightful advice about relationships. In fact, a third of their Honeymoon Stand Up Special on Netflix is dedicated to Moshe and Natasha hilariously helping/roasting couples and their issues.

Now, they’ve started to do that in podcast form with The Endless Honeymoon Podcast, which includes discussions of their own quarrels, guests (the first of which is TigerBelly’s Bobby Lee and Khalyla), live call-in questions, and a wondrous display of how sharp, quick, and damn funny both Moshe and Natasha really are. That, for our money, is what would likely make this stand-out from all other relationship advice podcasts. 

So, get into The Endless Honeymoon Podcast here or wherever you get your podcasts.

If you are a comedy podcast fan, the chances that you’ve enjoy James Adomian’s characters and voices are very high. Between Comedy Bang! Bang!, Chapo Trap House, and a plethora of other shows, Adomian has been part of some of the best bits of comedy podcasting ever for several years.

So, it stands to reason that Adomian should have his very own podcast where he can do his characters and feature his personal favorite comedians with their characters and otherwise.

That time has finally come as The Underculture, which is such a podcast as described, is set to premiere on Forever Dog this Thurs. May 9th. Get a taste with a trailer here, then go ahead and subscribe like you know you want to.

For our one-year anniversary episode, and season 2 finale, we welcome back Kayden Kross and comedian Kyle Kinane. Kayden is engaged in a heated Scrabble game during the show, and she also talks about International Adult Conventions vs. ones in the US, female fans vs. male fans, and of course cats vs. dogs. She also marvels at the guys’ lack of confidence, which is further destroyed for one of the hosts after the final question.
