An improv comedy podcast where your host, Will, attempts to teach you all about the real history and details behind some simple every day overlooked thing we all use, but not without being constantly distracted, interrupted, and sidetracked by a bunch of uninvited and unexpected ridiculously stupid guests who suddenly pop into the studio. One of many shows on The Red Curb Comedy Network at patreon.com/redcurbcomedy!

Customer Reviews
Stupid, Silly, Educational. Brilliant!
Regular podcast listeners might recognize Distraction! As the child of The Dollop and Everything Is Alive. More accurately it would be the bastard child of the two with a bit of Drunk History thrown in and all squeezed into ~30 minutes. Distraction! is silly, entertaining, and educational. It feels like I’m at a live comedy show with characters coming out of the woodwork while I’m learning about everyday things. This is now in my regular rotation.
Great improv podcast
Love this podcast! Definitely listen to a few episodes—they’re getting the jokes and timing down better every time. I hope they continue to record more!
Good concept
I tried this podcast because I’m a listener of the Smiley Morning Show and Producer Will is always good for laughs. They seem to be improving already after only 4 episodes and a lot of the characters are hilarious.
