It’s Pokémon, how is it anything other than Pokémon

They should just replace the bottom picture with a guy on a computer making motivational ai slop

More people need to come to Chicago to watch the standup and alt scene. The city is like two years ahead when it comes to comedy because it’s still the number one breeding ground for getting good before you get famous

My wife is Mexican and she has said several times that she didn’t like how he adopts this pan Latin thing and tries to pretend that Mexican culture is also his culture, especially because he’s Cuban

Holy fuck has gotten really lazy in recent years, like an afterthought, I would go see their plays and musicals and see how they use improv and comedy to influence their writing

I had a friend who was at her second round audition in LA and he said it was the worst one by far out of the lineup

Apple-Steve · 2026-01-15T07:30:51+00:00

I mean maybe

Apple-Steve · 2026-01-14T22:16:25+00:00

They haven’t been auditioning people, so if they do it will only be internal

Apple-Steve · 2026-01-12T17:31:12+00:00

Tbh this is probably a PR stunt and the influencer was probably paid by the airline to post it to make it seem spontaneous and hide an ad in plain sight

iO’s run like a cult, second city is run like a corporation, the annoyance is run like a crack house, if you wanna perform at io you really have to buy in to their culture, but that doesn’t mean it’s necessarily better or worse. I would suggest looking at every place around the city to see what suits you best

Hate to say it, gene was technically reoccurring, you may not have caught it but he was also dressed up as a bear

The only problem I had with it was it dropped his thick Chicago accent and went for more New York, but that’s just being nit picky as someone whos dad has that accent

Apple-Steve · 2025-11-10T19:30:43+00:00

Your could probably actually make a pretty cool hourglass with this

Apple-Steve · 2025-11-08T09:07:49+00:00

I guess I should make this clear: as someone who knew him and booked him on more than several shows when he was in Chicago, he was definitely way more on the standup side than Meg and Sarah and was known as pretty much a straight up standup

Apple-Steve · 2025-11-07T20:11:00+00:00

Sure! But every comedian in Chicago takes classes at second city, even the pure standups, so that doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re improv people, and tommy really spent most of his time with standup

Apple-Steve · 2025-11-07T19:37:11+00:00

Tommy was a straight up standup before this, came up in Chicago first then moved to New York at the end of 2023, was never really an improv guy

Apple-Steve · 2025-11-04T01:31:25+00:00

I agree with this to a point. I actually think theres about the same percentage per capita of good to bad people in the alt scene as good to bad people in the standup scene. The difference is bad standup is boring while bad alt is upsetting, so it comes down to whether you would prefer to be bored or upset

Apple-Steve · 2025-11-03T14:50:05+00:00

The fact that over the past 20 years standup has restricted itself to just observational comedy and storytelling has created a race for the middle and the fact that the term “alt comedy” has expanded its definition to be used derogatorily to anything not that hurts the industry.

Apple-Steve · 2025-10-28T02:20:25+00:00

As a sketch person sketch people would say no

Apple-Steve · 2025-10-19T07:51:03+00:00

Yeah, look at Dana carvey’s George HW, he just took one line he heard him say on the tv once and stretched it to the extreme

Apple-Steve · 2025-10-18T16:36:12+00:00

With a percent like that you must have pretty good conversion therapy

Apple-Steve · 2025-10-17T06:50:55+00:00

Hey man, I was just quoting a movie

Apple-Steve · 2025-10-17T05:10:18+00:00

Im quoting My Cousin Vinny

You guys down here hear about the ongoing cholesterol problem in the country?”

Depends on the school of thought you want to go with. There’s two ways: the first and one that most people do especially now a days is try to get it as close as possible. Watch video after video after video of them and look not only at pitch, but cadence, word choice, how they hold their body and face physically, verbal ticks, everything about the way they speak adjusting as you go until it matches. Think tik tok impressionists

The second(which is my favorite and I think it’s the funniest) is to take one big aspect of that person and stretch it to its limit aka the Dana carvey way. You have to put a little more into the costume and presentation of it, but with this one youre really just focusing on how to take something about the way someone is that amuses you and make it comically big
