Father's Day is coming up and so we have a special episode on 6/24 for anyone already in or who may be joining the Dead Dad Club.
The idea for this podcast came from our talks in the car during our long road trips to comedy gigs. So...enjoy our first episode of the Claws Out Comedy CARcast! This may be the first episode of the Carcast but really this is us going back to our roots and doing what we truly love: killing time, wasting gas and judging joggers.

In this first episode Claws Out Comedy co-hosts MONNA and Kerry examine the new-age beast of technology and “cancel culture”. A vulnerable first episode features vastly different perspectives on this hot button topic from DFW comedian Ruth Banks (funny_fora_girl) and from Chicago comedian/sketch performer Ethan Burk (gutterboiii). PLEASE NOTE: This was our very first episode. We were nervous and figuring out the audio. It gets better.
