Congratulations to the Behind The Funny guys. Heard about your podcast and loved listening to my old friend Paul Elwell share stories including picking up the wrong Richard Belzer. Brendan McMahon
So happy I discovered this podcast! Love hearing comedians “talk shop” about how they began in stand up, the highs, the lows and all the hijinks in between. Scott and Ace do a great job of keeping it conversational and fun, plus their guests are a great assortment of seasoned and new local comedy talent which provides diverse perspectives on being a working comic. A fun, weekly listen and I’ve even learned a bit about bourbon thanks to their bourbon dates!
Love listening to these two. Always great conversations and stories! If you want to just laugh out loud in your car, just put this on and listen!
Love listening to these guys! Feels like I’m in the room with them and their guest!
Great show tonight with Carolyn Fox! Hope she’s on again some time!
