]]> Mauricio brings his work-in-progress stand-up bit about skateboarders to the table, inspired by Barcelona's crackdown on skaters at the MACBA museum. The crew workshopping the material live, debating whether to double down on the hate or keep walking it back, and riffing on everything from Karen vigilantes to the philosophical difference between "true hate" and "real hate." It gets dark, it gets funny, and somehow ends with a bus, a body, and a very specific kind of joy.

So now the question is:
are these bits… or career-ending decisions?

Tell us what we should try and what should absolutely never leave this podcast.

Meanwhile Colman has been off being productive and winning a TV pitch, but still found time to explain (with great enthusiasm) why The Traitors is the greatest show ever made.

Watch the sets, see what worked, what didn’t, and let us know what you think — your comments genuinely help us shape the material.

]]> comedy, stand up, hour, build No Smart cows, autistic barbies 10 10 Smart cows, autistic barbies full dfdf935f-725a-4a63-b2b1-372e839454e3 https://share.transistor.fm/s/156289a6 Hello, Mauricio here, proving I can also be original.

The following is a video that makes much more sense once you accept that we’re still figuring things out.

It’s a conversation from a public episode with some questionable ideas that won’t let us go. In this one, Colman brings up the new autistic Barbie. Chris talks about Verónica, a cow who may or may not be smarter than him. And I read a text about the origins of the Interior Designer, which somehow felt relevant at some point.

Of course these aren’t finished bits, just exercises to keep the comedy muscle busy, and hopefully you entertained. Were barbies thinner before, as Chris assures? Straight (mostly) men can’t do a stereotypically gay voice anymore? Are cows finally ready to rebel?  Do any of these ideas matters? We will find out when we circle back to them in front of an audience.

Nothing here has been cleaned up or streamlined. No edits to make us sharper. No highlights to suggest we knew where we were going. This is just the conversation as it happened, including the confusion, the wrong turns, and the moments that only work because everyone in the room agreed to keep going anyway.

Thanks for being here.
