Popcorn Counter: Funny Ha Ha
Manage episode 429370488 series 3322059
We’re wiping away the tears of a clown at the Popcorn Counter this episode, as we spend a happy twenty minutes asking: how come so many well known actors got their start as stand up comedians, and yet there seem to be so few films about comedians? We draw parallels between comedians and writers, wonder if the best comedy reveals too much about its writer, and ask: who told the joke ‘The Aristocrats’ the best? Who is the comedian’s comedian that every comic in London went to see for one night only? And why is so much that’s funny also painful?
