- How do you remain funny taking on serious, maybe political things or pundits or whatnot in the comedic space while you may be delivering something or talking about something that's very serious.

But, you know, people need to laugh.

Like, people need to be able to digest it in a way that they get the humor outta it, but they are still informed.

- Yeah, yeah.

So no, I've been doing this "Bless This Mess" page for a year now, and it's, it presupposes what if the news was R-rated, right?

So I've been doing some, trying to do some funny takes and pull no punches and, you know, the administration is R-rated, right?

Our state lawmakers are R-rated, right?

So why shouldn't we go ahead and talk about the news in that way?

And so, yeah, that's been a big part of the "Bless This Mess" project, and, you know, been trying to promote local comedy shows in town.

There's an amazing scene here that I think is starting to get some notice.
