I have a new podcast where I interview ambitious creative individuals in a very serious manner.
Chicago, home of Second City and iO, is the best city in the world for sketch comedy and improv so I’ll be talking to a lot of those types of people to get things started.
My first guest is Brian Peterlin of Bri-Ko, an all silent sketch comedy trio with an upcoming run of shows at Stage773. Brian also runs tech for a number of local comedy groups so he shares his perspective from both sides of the stage.
