April 10, 2025

Still, to this day, Rebecca Drysdale is one of the funniest improvisers we’ve ever seen. Coupled with her vast writing experience, we’ll take any chance to have her on TCB Field Report and what a chance it was for this episode. We legitimately intertwine The Force from Star Wars into improv theory and practice (along with some other IP based metaphors) for a marvelously comedy philosophy heavy episode.

Follow Rebecca @beckdrys on IG and sign-up for her classes (the latest round start next week) at drysdaleclasses@gmail.com.

Nerdmelt Showroom Expands To Have Nerdist School to Teach Comedy, Animation, Writing, and More

The live venue run by Nerdist Industries, The Nerdmelt Showroom, is further legitimizing itself from the numerous accolades and achievements it has gotten from being the site of the some best comedy shows in LA to seeing its flagship show, Meltdown with Jonah and Kumail, become a Comedy Central series to now having a school. Joining in the ranks of some of the more established venues in town like the Upright Citizens Brigade, there will soon be classes, for improv, sketch, writing, animation, storytelling, and more.

It was the next logical step for them to take after getting working A/C for being a venue in the back of a comic book store.
