The Comedy Kiosk

30/10/2024

Ever wondered what it takes to pull off a comedy show? Spoiler: it’s a lot more than just a funny person and a microphone. In this episode, we're peeling back the curtain on the chaotic, hilarious world behind the scenes! From the stressed-out producers and caffeine-fueled show managers to the tech magicians who keep the lights on and the audio clear (fingers crossed), we’re spotlighting every unsung hero—and occasional villain—in the comedy production process.

In this episode of The Comedy Kiosk, David and Igor discuss the influence social media and the internet as a whole has had on stand-up comedy. Do comedians pander to YouTube? Are hecklers now part of the experience and why? Has TikTok killed the grand raconteur (storyteller)? Or is comedy just evolving, and does this mean these two dinosaurs are just going to have to get with the times, invent a silly dance to go with their lip-synched bits? The answer to all these questions are in this TikTok unfriendly sized episode.

David and Igor contemplate the ages old philosophical quandary, whether it is better to be the hottest comedian in a small comedy scene with all the adulation and perks, or be the flailing unknown who can barely get a gig or free drink in a giant comedy scene. They also discuss moving from one scene to another and the expectations one may have and also, the worst of the worst …what if there is no scene?

When does a show or film become aged and outdated? Has the world changed to that extent that something that was acceptable 30 years ago simply shouldn't exist today? Or it just wouldn't fly with the audiences? Has the humor changed, has the society changed, or have we just become more sensitive to things meant to be light and simple?
On an example of the hugely popular and loved TV series F.R.I.E.N.D.S., and based on the article found on https://www.cbr.com/friends-aged-poorly/, Igor and David try to address these questions, and how fair or harsh is it to judge an old IP by today's standards.
