    Music & Comedy--Season 2 premiere!

    Music & Comedy, a subject Rob knows well, explores what it's like to play music in the ranks of standup comedy. Rob talks with NYC-based musical comedian Joshua Grosvent about the trials and tribulations facing music/comedy hybrids, and you can see some of those trials and tribulations first hand as Josh explains how his big Summer Jam show almost didn't happen because the venue decided to close for the night! Also featured in this episode are The Rob and Mark Show who didn't let a closed venue stop them from rockin' out on the street, along with the other performers from the night Baron Vaughn, Shayna Ferm, Schaffer the Darklord and The Hazzards.

    Party Boat -- Episode 10

    Pirates! Sunken Ships!! Party Boat -- Episode 10 is Life as a Comic's summer blockbuster! Follow Rob as he performs in a show on the Frying Pan, a 75-year-old Lightship that sunk, was salvaged, and is now docked on NYC's west side and used for parties. Journey down into the belly of the beast as the show takes place in the lowest deck of the ship and see what it's like to perform at an 'event' when the crowd is there to drink and mingle and not necessarily catch a show. After the show you can hang out with celebrities, like TVs Mike Siegel from the Superstation! Many thanks to co-producer Jon Friedman for having me on the bill and to everyone who was kind enough to watch the show in the hot and humid hold of an old salvaged lightship.

    Reels -- Episode 8

    Reels -- Episode 8 shows all of the video packages comics have to put together in order to get work and further their careers. From taping sets to editing 90-second vignettes for showcase submissions to putting the press kits together, Rob takes you through the process that leaves comics with more tape on themselves than Nixon. Note from Rob: This episode is a little different in that it doesn't center on a particular show and it's completely behind-the-scenes support for the life of a comic. But the truth is I spend dozens of hours each month editing, writing, packaging and mailing video and written submissions that I thought it would make a good episode. Hope you like it!

    It's Not Just Me -- Episode 7

    "It's Not Just Me" takes you to Hoboken, NJ (sorry) for a show Rob does with fellow comedian and big man on the college market Eric O'Shea. Rob and Eric have worked together before so they meet up early to ride the PATH train under the Hudson to the Stevens Institute of Technology in the downtown 'Boke. This episode also explores the ins and outs of what it's like to perform opposite free cookies and a snack bar. Between the sugar rushes, cafeteria-style seating and the full moon, Rob and Eric joke their way through two states, green rooms, and drunks on the subway. Enjoy!

And to John Cougar Mellancamp, who attended Vincennes University back in the day and went on to idealize the Hoosier State in song.

    NYC-DIY-- Episode 3

    To view movie, click above or here. The New York alternative, or "downtown," comedy scene is where I spend most of my time, and if you've ever wondered what it's like to do shows in these kinds of places, tag along with me. Learn how to entertain hipsters and what it's like to perform for an audience that thinks it's cooler than you. The show I did was put together by Liam McEneaney for his showcase for a Comedy Central Presents submission, and it also featured Baron Vaughn and The Domestics. It was a lot of fun and it definitely helps explain the differences between the downtown scene and the clubs. Hope you like it.

    College Gigs -- Episode 2

    "College Gigs" is episode 2 of Life as a Comic, to view it click image above or here. Are College Gigs non-stop parties full of hot coeds where comedians party all night long on campus or are they actually work? I started playing colleges early on in my career and I've played over 300 of them since, and I've learned they can be fun, and they can be terrible, but they never seem to be what people think they are when I say "I do a lot of colleges." So check out the real nitty as I perform at Ohio University in Athens, Ohio.

    One Nighters

    It's the first episode of "Life as a Comic"! View it here! One Nighters are stand-up shows that take place in the most random assortment of venues, sometimes they're fun, sometimes they make you question the choices you've made in your life. And you can never tell going in which kind it will be. For example there was a one nighter in southern Illinois at a bowling alley on a Tuesday night and you'd think it would be the worst show of your year, but it's always packed and the audience is always great. This particular one nighter took place in Millstone Township, New Jersey at a restaurant near Six Flags Great Adventure. I was working with Jody Wasserman and Jeff Kreisler and a woman who clucked like a chicken. Seriously. We'll be back in a couple of weeks with another episode, thanks for stopping by!
