We had the pleasure of talking to improviser and instructor, Donna Steele! Jason and Donna crossed paths years ago and the improv gods brought them back together at the Magnet where Jason coaches Donna's house team, Janet. Donna talks with Jason about performing at Coalition Theater in Richmond, VA before going to the WIT in Washington D.C., instructing furloughed government workers, what it was like to move to NYC after getting thoroughly invested at two theaters, her insight on performing improv, puppetry, and more! https://www.donnasteele.com Instagram: @DonnaASteele, @ThereItIsPod, @JasonFarrPics Twitter: @ThereItIsPod, @JasonFarrJokes Facebook: @ThereItIsPod Subscribe to our comedy newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/e22defd4dee2/thereitis

It's our second live show! Josh couldn't join us for this one, as he's off in the Pacific Northwest being a better cousin than Alex, but we've got Sarah Ahmed and Jesse Hill live at the Coalition Theater chatting all about Con Air, the finest airplane-themed action comedy since Airplane! if that movie had an explosion for every hilarious good.
Welcome to the end of our grand world tour, this time seeing Josh on his own discussing Guarding Tess with returning guests Josh Thorud and Brad's Bud AKA Thrillhammer. You get two episodes this week because your two dingus brother podcasters dinged it up again and didn't do an episode last week. Ooops! Join us at the Coalition Theater at 10:00 on Friday, July 28th for our live show! We'll talk about The Rock and possibly a cock and our favorite Vulcan, Spock.
It's part two of our fabulous road tour! This week, join Alex in the far-off land of "less than a mile away from the studio" as he discusses Deadfall with local advertising legend Geoff Stone, who has a very peculiar painting on his wall. Deadfall features what may be Nicolas Cage's worst crazy performance, and that brings no small amount of sadness to say. Join us at the Coalition Theater at 10:00 on July 28th to see our live show! We're gonna talk about The Rock and maybe throw peanuts at each other like the good funtime boys we are.
Back to Back - There is no wait. We're dropping the second episode of the Top Billin' Podcast hosted by Cheats. This episode features the Executive Director of the Coalition Theater Matt Newman. Right now (today and tomorrow), the 2nd Best Comedy Fest is going on in Richmond. Matt talks about the Festival, the theater, and what to expect this weekend. Check it out.

Hoo boy, today's something of a double goof, and you can blame each individual goof on each brother. First, Alex didn't set up the recording equipment right, so the audio quality's a bit off, and Josh managed to not get a copy of The Cotton Club in time because Frankie Ford Coppola is super ashamed of it. HOWEVER! We found the legit first professional acting work for Our Sainted Cage, an ABC pilot called The Best of Times. It's only forty-eight minutes long, and it's all right here on Youtube. Check it out and come right back, because you get to see a very young Nicolas Coppola pointing at his biceps, screaming, and then debating the nature of being young and called up to war and using that story to get some trim. Join your favorite brothers and their guest, comedian and doctoral candidate Francesca Lyn. If you're in the Richmond area, check out her event at the Coalition Theater, Stand-up for Access: A Comedy Benefit for the Richmond Reproductive Freedom Project. Tell your friends, tell your enemies, write us a review with a five-star rating on iTunes, name your firstborns either Alex, Josh, or Francesca, or sacrifice yourself to yourself for power over Podcast Magick.

When the host of a fake late night talk show is making it big in Richmond, naturally Kelli has to meet the person.

Beau talks about why he loves Richmond, getting a real Senator on a fake talk show and his favorite spots to eat around RVA.
