Doesn't Netflix consider a view at just 2 minutes?

It's something crazy short for a film, like 7 mins. They 100% pump up their numbers for investors. It's absolute bullshit

Do you really think capitalists would do that? Just go on the markets and tell lies?

Somebody needs to tell Mike that maybe he's not laughing when he goes to improv because Milwaukee isn't housing the A-list talent.

Improv seems like an exercise you would do in preparation for being a comedic actor or getting more confidant with public speaking than something you would charge people to see. I did like Whose Line Is It Anyway as a kid.

99.9% of improv is bad. But that .1% is gold. A lot of the funniest people and stuff from the last 50 years or so has its roots in Improv groups like the Groundlings or Second City.

Lauren Lapkus is an improv comic, and seeing her in the clips for The Wrong Missy is sad because she was really, really funny when I used to listen to Comedy Bang Bang a lot.

Also, :lol: at Mike's rant about improv comics when Jack was at one point involved with Comedy Sports in Milwaukee.

I don't think they do it anymore as they're busy with work and WHM. If you listen to the old episodes they reference Private Cabin, which is their Improv group. They also mention a movie the improv group made called "We Are Strangers." It's exactly what a bunch of improv hipsters from Brooklyn would make. https://www.facebook.com/PrivateCabin/

I do think that taking their improv experience and using it for a podcast was a good thing though. A lot of what they do on the show is improv style humor like the funny character bits and voices they do. That goes to Dmitri's point about improv being a good way to prepare for comedy things, but that's about all it's good for.

Oh yeah I knew they'd made a movie that looked completely uninteresting. Had nooooooo loving clue all this time what they were talking about every time they mentioned Private Cabin.

God, it was an improvised movie? What a lovely idea.
