Good comedy is a reflection of society. Next month, for five days, over 150 comedians will grace ten stages throughout the city for the inaugural Columbus Comedy Festival. On the occasion of the upcoming event, I sat down with Walker Evans, co-founder of Columbus Underground and the Comedy Festival, and Hannah Romes, co-owner of Hashtag Comedy. We discussed the impetus for and execution of the festival, the opportunities in the Columbus comedy scene, and their focus on increasing public awareness of the city's abundant talent. The post Columbus Comedy Festival appeared first on The Confluence Cast.

SPC makes its second trip to what is quickly becoming one of our favorite storytelling destinations. For our latest stop in Columbus, we decided to tackle our storytellers’ college experience in what we dubbed The Ohio State Edition. Whiskey Bear Comedy head honcho and comedy festival favorite Dustin Meadows tells a ridiculous story about his time in school where he majored in pop culture and how a homework assignment led to hitting a friend with his car. Hashtag Comedy’s Sarah Storer tells an insanely entertaining cautionary tale about why you should never fall in love in Bible school. Spoiler alert, there’s probably some dry humping. Comedian Pat Deering tells an unusual story about a prank gone awry and how a lost pocket knife almost got him into a heap of trouble. Columbus storyteller and Babe to Know Christine Hovarth tells a very, er, timely story about taking Plan B. This show was the second stop on our 2017 Midwestern tour and includes all of the SPC staff including Kenny Kinds, Tim Cornett, Jeremy Hellwig and Kris Wernowsky..

Sarah is a huge part of one of the hottest things in Columbus improv right now - #Hashtag Comedy. We talked a ton about improv. But I think the big takeaway from this episode is how much parents can screw up their kids. Not Sarah and I, of course. Just other people.
