Funny and irreverent!

Paul F. Tompkins as H.G. Wells in talks with various writers he have collected wth the help of his Time Machine. It’s funny, it’s sometimes sexy and usually very well improvised. My guess is most people will find laughs, but the more you know about the authors in question, and pop culture in general, the more hilarious it gets.

Audio quality is over all very good which adds to the enjoyment of course.

I would recommend this show to anyone interested in listening to great improv theatre and literature.
