Comedy
In Episode 3 of Before The Show, we have an entertainer from all the way out in sunny California. Jonathan Flanagan is a California native, who actually went to college to stand on a stage. From his improvisation classes, to being able to hide within a character in theatre, he’s experiencing stage-fright for the third time doing stand-up. “It’s a light, a mic, and you up there,” summarizes Connor. There is a little inspiration everywhere, but Jonathan says his favorite comedy topic is sex. Whether or not you're doing it, there's always some subversion of expectation to find humor in. Jonathan believes no topic is strictly off-limits, but some topics are harder to make genuinely humorous. One thing we haven't heard too much about here in Michigan is jokes about homelessness, apparently a much more common topic in California. Let's give him a warm welcome in the land of snow and ice. He'll be out to The Avenue in Owosso on the 15th of March at 9 PM. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/uglybroscomedy/support
