Been a little while, huh?
So I had an experience at a club this past weekend that really made me think so I decided to pick up this microphone and talk about it.
This is just a little insight into the mind of a comedian and how I dealt with a very abnormal circumstance.
Enjoy the therapy session.

After you listen to the podcast, watch the video here.
And here’s the audio of how I started my show:
Well it’s only been….4 months. Where’ve I been? Writing on a game show (www.FunnyYouShouldAsk.tv) but now that I’m on a cruise ship again for a couple of weeks, I brought out the ole computer and did another podcast; this time with comedian Orlando Leyba (www.Heylando.com).
We talked about his early career; getting started a little later in life and what he thinks about working a ship for the second time.
Thanks for listening guys, enjoy the show!

Greetings from Germany! Seriously, I’m in Germany now on the Couples of Comedy Tour right now with my lovely wife Allison Weber and comedy couple Rebekah Kochan & Dante.
So far we’ve been to 5 different countries and still have 3 more to go…and it’s been unreal. We’re recording on our tour bus (thankfully we got all the plane rides out of the way first; 16 flights in 15 days. One word “Oy”) as we drive through the German countryside.
On the show we talk about the tour, what we’ve done and seen and what’s it like to tour with each other. Hopefully we can record at least one more before the tour ends.
Enjoy!

Hello all, welcome to the first show of 2017 and episode 198.
This week we sit down with comedian Matt Kirshen (www.MattKirshen.com); a very funny comic from the UK who’s been over here for a decade now and killing it. This week though the show is light on laughs and heavy on debate as he and the lovely Allison (www.AllisonComedy.com) go back and forth about cancer and conspiracies. Honestly, you don’t hear too much from me as I’m just sitting back and enjoying the show.
Again, this episode doesn’t have many laughs, but it is very interesting to hear two opposing sides of a very intense debate.
Enjoy!
Matt & Allison deep in debate.
Hey kids, welcome to the show. This week comedian and buddy Darren Carter (www.DarrenCarter.com) comes back and we talk about a lot of stuff.
TOPICS INCLUDE: Comedy, shitty shows and doing sit ups on the air…spoiler, Darren is much better at those than me.
Enjoy!

Hey guys, well first of all, so sorry for the delay in the new podcast; as I explain, just got busy…and not the good “got busy”. I mean hell, I’m married.

This episode we talk a lot of stuff including: about movies from our childhood, lollipops and how Brian can take anything positive and make it negative.
Enjoy!

Oh, this show begins with me trying to sing the Beatles…my apologies.
Enjoy!
Hey guys, welcome to another fun-tastic episode of the show.

Enjoy!
When we say “old buddy”, we don’t mean my the old man who named Buddy who lives behind the CVS, no, we mean the one and only Darren Carter (www.DarrenCarter.com).
Now that myself and Allison (www.AllisonComedy.com) have moved into a home and have an actual room for recording (not just our living room) we wanted to have a familiar face to the show christen the room.
And as another new way of reaching out, we broadcast this show live on Periscope (follow me @flipschultz) so we were able to interact with some folks.
Enjoy the show!
