What is the fine line between being offensive and being funny in today’s standup comedy culture? What makes a joke offensive?
Today’s conversation with an intellectual turned stand-up comedian will tear down what you thought you knew about comedy.
Leah Lamarr is an internationally touring stand-up comedian, writer, podcaster, and TV personality.
Leah opened mic for some of the biggest comedians in the world, such as Bill Burr, Mark Normand, and Nick Kroll, to name a few.
Expect to learn about intent vs impact in comedy, what makes a joke offensive, the current standup comedy culture, the life of a stand-up comedian, why comedy is not therapy, and how to master your emotions.
This is the funniest conversation yet that is also equally thought-provoking.
Also, please note that Leah is an edgy comedian so profanity and laughter are part of the package for this episode!
Let’s get this started.
