Crafting jokes that kill, hustling to find gigs, and improvising based on the audience's reaction with Chris Grace, a stand-up comedian. What's the worst he's ever bombed? And what is a "bringer" show?

Want to be on the show? Leave a message on our voice mailbox at (919) 213-0456. We’ll ask you to answer two questions:

1. What do people think your job is like and what is it actually like?
2. What’s a word or phrase that only someone from your profession would be likely to know and what does it mean?

Plug in and log on for this month’s episode where Austin and Big T discuss the 1998 romantic comedy, You’ve Got Mail. 

Listen is as we talk about some of our favorite scenes and explore the themes and messages that are still (or even more) relevant in today’s digital world. We discuss what it means to be personal, and Austin shares why this is his favorite rom-com. We even answer the burning question: was Joe gaslighting Kathleen? 

So snuggle up in your bed and give this month’s episode a listen, then join us next month when we discuss the 1988 action film, Die Hard.

Episodes are released the first Monday of every month.

We have a truly one-of-a-kind dead pilot for you this month! It’s The Sleeping Father, written by Michele Mulroney & Kieran Mulroney (Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows, Power Rangers), based on the novel by Matthew Sharpe. It follows the slow-motion implosion and long and ridiculous recovery of the Schwartz family after patriarch, Bernie, goes into a coma and comes out of it even more screwed up than when he went in. Michele and Kieran originally wrote this as a screenplay for Warner Bros and it was later revived as a television pilot for Warner Bros Television. The Mulroneys have lived with and worked on this adaptation for well over a decade, and we are happy to bring you not just one, but two episodes of this criminally dead project! They wrote a great second episode that we will be bringing you next week. This is an unconventional and unpredictable story about a messy family that we know you’re going to love. Enjoy it!

We had a terrific cast for this one including Dave Foley (Newsradio), Ennis Esmer (Blindspot), Ciara Bravo (Cherry), Daniel DiMaggio (American Housewife), Nichole Sakura (Superstore), Niles Fitch (This Is Us), Sarah Rafferty (Suits), Bellina Logan (ER), Greg Hess (LA to Vegas), and Andrew Reich with stage directions.

With the help of guest Mira Lamson Klein, we discuss the pilot episode of Superstore, from the creative means used to make a two-aisle set resemble a full store, to the variety of real-world labor and discrimination issues covered in this show, to Amy and Jonah's status as the best sitcom slow-burn of all.

Welcome to the after show interview! This week we sat down with the writer of Peak Eve, Lon Zimmet. Andrew and Lon worked together on Lon’s first show, Worst Week. Since then Lon has gone on to write for Happy Endings, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Superstore, and he created the sitcom LA to Vegas on Fox.  In this interview, Andrew and Lon talked about Lon’s transition from working in a writing team to going out on his own. He credits his solo success to writing as much as he possibly could. Lon talks about his handy story document that he always refers to when he starts to work on something new. He let us in on his experience developing with FX, his process of writing cold opens, lessons he’s learned as a show runner, and the difference between writing shows for the market and writing for yourself. This is a good one! Enjoy it and thanks for listening!

This week, Angus covers the cult favourite—but his least favourite—rom-com, 2001s 'Amélie,' a French film that racked up five Oscar nominations. Will talks about an  sitcom that is often overlooked when thinking about essential American television, NBC's 'Superstore.'

Another Effin' Podcast About Sitcom is four friends, Mo Laikowski, Stan Laikowski, Luke Ward and Dan McInerney, watching sitcoms and carefully pulling all the joy out of them. 

This week on BEFORE THE BREAK, the boys sit down with comedy actor/writer, Bendan Jennings. Ronald has had recurring roles on A.P. Bio, Superstore, Shrink, and Cougar Town. He's also appeared on such shows as Parks and Rec, New Girl, Teachers, and Curb Your Enthusiasm. We discuss getting the bug after watching his first Second City show, getting into the Chicago improv scene, dealing with confidence, the stress of SNL being in town, getting used to on-camera work, and getting into the writers room. That and much more!

Segment: Interview - Declan Shalvey - Check out the Kickstarter for Time Before Time

1. Hi Declan, thank you for being on the AIPT Comics podcast and congrats on a fully-funded Kickstarter with just 2 days to go! And with Time Before Time launching on Wednesday in comic book shops! How has the Kickstarter rollercoaster been for you?
2. Time Before Time is a time travel story, but it’s more a smugglers’ tale, especially since time can’t be altered as far as we know. What made you choose to go this route using time travel?
3. What is your favorite time travel story?
4. I’ve read you hope Time Before Time goes for a long time, do you have a number of issues in mind that would be the dream run?
5. The first issue takes place in the 80s and the 2100s, was there any significance in those periods of time?
6. The first couple of issues end with cliffhangers - is that something we can expect for the full series?
7. As an artist, have you found you approach scripting differently than Rory? And how is the process different collaborating with Rory McConville and Joe Palmer been like?
8. Your book Immortal Hulk Flatline was inspired, especially the color story at work, how did that influence your work on Time Before Time?
9. With plenty of Marvel works under your belt, are there any Marvel characters you’re itching to draw or write?
10. Last April it was solicited you’d be working with Ed Brisson on a Punisher tale, is that still in the works?
11. Are there any other projects you’d like to discuss or plug in today?
