The story is that comedy is a second class art form, not that it doesn’t require great skill, but that it is not as “important” as dramatic, “serious” works. And while what tugs our heartstrings remains mostly constant over the millenia, what tickles our funny bone seems always in flux. What is this unstable element whose byproduct—laughter—has been called the best medicine? Today we explore the somewhat subjective healing power of comedy. I’m Joel Ackerman. This is Lightwise.
Whitney Call and Stacey Harkey are American comedians, actors, and original cast members of Studio C, a sketch comedy television show, kind of a clean, family friendly Saturday Night Live, that has run for fifteen seasons. They are co-founders of family-friendly JK Studios, and also stars of Angel Studios’ sitcom “Freelancers.” You can watch the first two seasons free in the Angel app.
