Brian James O'Connell is a filmmaker, improviser, and all around great dude. Ben & Jenn talk to BOC about sheltering in place in this weird time out in LA. We also talk about how to find joy in Southern colloquialisms which means, especially for improvisers, that this was one heck of a rioting interview!

Today's great episode is with Los Angeles actor, writer, and director, Brian James O'Connell who also performs and instructs improv at the iO West as well as at the Pack Theater. Brian is a well versed improviser who Jason met at the New South Comedy Festival. Jason and Brian got into some good stuff about the process of performing more successful improv and coaching improv. They barely scratched the surface of Brian's wealth of knowledge, so Jason will certainly be having him on again. Dig in! It's a great talk!
