In this episode, Lisa chats with clown Chad Damiani. Chad is not a clown in the sense that most people think of clowns. Clowning is breaking down structures of authority while having fun and getting laughs in the process. Before finding his way to clowning, Chad a successful career as a screenwriter and before that he was an announcer for wrestling. Chad and Lisa really get into it and discuss knowing when to shift careers, learning to embrace bad luck, using the dark times to fuel the good times and the challenges and rewards of going against the grain.

I've talked a little bit on the show about the growing/exloding clown scene in LA and how it's becoming a 4th genre of comedy after stand-up, sketch, and improv. It's way different than the type of clowning you're familiar with (see the episode with Gilly the Clown for that btw). This type of clowning (or just "Clown") is a performance that thrives in chaos and failure and it's actually still figuring itself out. Well Chad Damiani is one of the pioneers of that scene and one of the main people helping to define it. He also does a stand-up act with characters that fucking kill me. And he worked for WCW during the Monday Night Wars, so I definitely asked about that too. Video and extras are at www.patreon.com/brido

As we know, "theater is dead, a putrid vessel of the forgotten time. The kind of putrid when the skin becomes wax and raccoons not only feed but make love to what's left of the flesh." These are the quotes from today's interview with Chad Austin Pierce, a distinguished theater actor "from one of the Americas," who's graced the stage at many places we never heard of, like Monte's Carnegie Hall (different from *the* Carnegie Hall). Chad Austin Pierce, who proudly doesn't own a pen and refers to writers as "scribblers", predicts that standup comedy will save live theater. He gifts us with a brand-new standup routine where each joke is prefaced with an extensive backstory and character development. "If They're Laughing Too Much, They're Not Bothering To Think." Enjoy, just prepare to hear the word "putrid" a lot.
