Stand Up Comedy Pros and Cons

Comedy comes in a lot of forms. One of the ways is typically with stand up at a club or theater, which the best of are taped and released for later viewing. But in recent years, those comedy specials have started to evolve beyond just a person on stage with a mic telling jokes. Certain comedians are pushing the boundaries of what that can look like, what the jokes can take the form of, and how to present it all to the world. Jack and Kev talk about this overall and also focus on Bo Burnham’s new special “Inside” that was written, recorded, and edited completely by Bo himself in one space during the pandemic.
