  • Life In Comedy explores the triumphs and struggles of the working comedian. Host Will Becton has been around a lot of funny people. He was the original engineer of Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend, and worked at Team Coco for the entire run on CONAN on TBS. Prior to Team Coco he performed improv comedy at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre with house teams The Syndicate and Team Brooklyn. Will has always wondered why comedians end up being comedians, as it seems like more of a calling than a choice. In this show he attempts to find that out by talking to stand-ups, improvisers, comedy writers, sketch performers, and humorists. Life In Comedy is recorded at Jett Road Studios.

  • The Sklar Bros on Eating It, Held Up, and TAG IT!
    2024/07/12

    The Sklar Brothers started doing stand-up together as adolescent twins in St. Louis. A fortuitous encounter with Andy Kindler during college encouraged them they were on the right track. They came up in New York during the rise of the alt comedy scene, and performed at Eating It at Luna Lounge, and other venues like Surf Reality and Collective Unconscious on the Lower East Side. They have been stalwarts of the standup world ever since.

    Jason and Randy talk to Will about the differences between standup and improv, their experience making Held Up together (Crackle), and TAG IT!, the show they currently host at Largo and the Comedy Store.
