Episode 268: Stand-Up Comedy

Derek Myers and Chris McBrien take a look at stand-up comedy from a Millennial and Gen-X perspective, respectively. They discuss a brief history of stand-up comedy including its evolution into ‘specials’ and stand-up ‘concert’ films. They each run down their personal top 5 favourite stand-up comedy films.

For the trivia segment of the show, Chris gives Derek quotes from stand-up routines and Derek has to guess the comedian associated with their quote.
