My Go-to Place

I love the commitment of Rob and Adam on this Show. Not always agreeing with them, but as in the best podcasts I love you feel connected to their passion and love for this art. A podcast like a harbour for a ship on the improv journey. Plus: It should be visited be more than once. Greetings to friends I never meet before from Germany: Jens (Improtheater Mannheim)
