Off Book: The Improvised Musical

The show brings so much joy to my day! These are brilliant, talented, improv artists! I find myself thinking about all of the episodes weeks later. Genius. Fun. Amazing. Happiness. All things good.

They are trying so much harder and doing so much more than other podcasts. In the (approximate) words of Adam Brody’s character in “Thank You For Smoking”: It kind of makes you want to stop listening to other podcasts, but I guess you kind of have to.

I am only just finding this!!! What they do is incredible. I love their chemistry, wit, intelligence, and unhinged ability to bring joy in this specific unique way. It takes a lot of knowledge and hard work to do what they do effortlessly.

This podcast is such a gem. I have a good time every time. Even though I only found Zach and Jess (and Scott and Dana and Brett) recently boy howdy do I have a backlog full of joy and fun guests to work through with this pod! While they’re not releasing every week like they did 2017-2023 we still get plenty of new content at less regular intervals that I’m eagerly looking forward to (particularly the live shows!). I’m a new(ish) sleepy baby (anyone wondering why I’m a sleepy baby - it’s from Episode 10 with Will Hines) and I hope anyone who reads this review and isn’t already a fan becomes a sleepy baby real soon!
