Day 4: Rehearsal chicken! Still not cleared for action (Oy vey- how much longer til I learn patience?) but I’m writing, devising and singing (they gave me a Dolly tune!) and now, playing w my new feathered friend. Birds fascinate & crack me up. Especially regular, everyday birds - pigeons, chickens, crows, robins. I think it’s wild these dinosaurs live among us and we’re all nonplussed. My new buddy is an Orpington, which is a British breed. So far she’s pretty stuck up and rude (I do have my hand up her cloaca so that’s probs my bad), and very free range. I love her.

Day 3: Full fridge in the soft light glow it imparts on my soul. I’ve been eating rice, beans and spinach since I started here so I was thankful, excused from rehearsal again, to go grocery shopping. Hopefully the X-rays will show I’m good to go tomorrow and I can get to work with the rest of the amazing cast. In the meanwhile I’ve been writing jokes and bits, singing, yodeling, and ordering up rehearsal props since I won’t get my puppets until we hit Nashville. Not a second to waste, so fueling up and digging in to find the voices first. Never a dull moment, as there’s plenty to do. Thanks for all your love and concern. I’ve never felt so close to an online community.

Sometimes comedy writing be like this, doesn’t it? But rather than “the…” the stand-up version is more “what’s the deal with…” It feels like it’s been so long since I’ve gone to open mics or written jokes, and I can use the excuses of my work schedule and winter and not having a car, but all of that’s still the same (except for it being winter, fingers crossed) and I’m finding time for open mics now, lol. Part of it I guess is because I’m not content with just telling effed one-liners that feel like they could be out of a Jeselnik joke book, and part of it is feeling like I can’t write anything else. Maybe because I’m always teetering close to near-catatonic depression and I don’t dare pick at the trauma (read as: “truth”) I have for fear of tipping my internal scales out of wack. Maybe its because so much of that trauma is self-imposed and I don’t feel like I have much of a right to be funny about it – if I even can be. The jokes about those things don’t come. Maybe it’s just because I have a tough time with the truth, but I’d rather believe that I want to be honest, just that the justice system ingrained a pavlovian flinch in response to being that way. Sometimes I wish alcohol didn’t taste so foul. A splash would help the wounds hurt less when I pick at them; another would act as disinfectant. I’m writing some jokes about my girlfriend. I’m trying to be truthful, to make it personal, to make it cut and speak like a cheap fake pedo joke can’t… but if she asks, they’re just jokes. Haha. Anyway, the song on this post is beautiful, and the singer didn’t write a title for it, so maybe writing isn’t everything there is to good great art. . . . . . #standupcomedy #comedywriting #writing

📣 EVENT ALERT! Story Studios Australia is proud to announce two upcoming events dedicated to the craft of comedy writing! Taught by gainfully employed TV comedy writers Kit Richards and Alistair Baldwin, this first session (May 28th) will guide writers through the art of structuring the perfect joke in a wide range of formulas, as well as contextualising them in narrative comedy, sketch and “late night” topical satire. The following week’s session (June 4th), will delve into comedic archetypes and the ways both sitcoms and sketch comedy rely on character conflict to generate story. These events are ticketed separately, so come along to one, or both, and let the hilarity ensue! 🤣 Click the link in our bio or visit tinyurl.com/wsjokes & tinyurl.com/wscharacters to learn more and book your spot! -- @baldwinalistair is a TV writer, comedian, director and playwright. He has written for Erotic Stories, The Weekly, Hard Quiz and Get Krack!n. Alistair was also a director on the AACTA Award winning web series Latecomers, and his first play Telethon Kid premiered at Malthouse Theatre in 2023. @kitrichardscomedy is a Melbourne based musician and comedian whose TV credits include Hard Quiz, The 1% Club and Get Krack!n’.

All over the country, the new fad of taking orange juice to cure acne is causing quite a stir! When Billy and his girlfriend Doreen heard everyone in school were taking orange juice to cure their pimply faces, asses and foreheads, they immediately hit Kroger’s market buying gallons of Florida sunshine. The two missed an essential earlier direction from the school nurse, and began dumping the sweet juice into the bathtub with both of them bathing in it to restore their sunny complexion. Doreen was flapping about the tub like a mermosa and suddenly realized a sensation she’d never felt in her orangina. For poor Billy, the acidic juice was causing severe burning and discomfort of the taint, among other crevices. Then, Billy’s freshly squeezed nut sack began to feel a tropical sensation near his Harvey Wallbanger and he knew it was time to jump out! The two headed back to school the next day looking like human traffic cones, but sadly, with most of their skin falling off.

Using the basic principles of sketch writing, you will learn how to refine those skills for topical sketches and short-form bits. In this four-week intensive with Megan Sass (Reductress), each student will have the opportunity to present and receive notes twice, leaving with one-two sketches ready for their sketch packet or to film. No prerequisites required! Sign up today at: https://www.packtheater.com/classes/p/political-sketch-megan-sass #sketchcomedy #comedywriting #politicalcomedy #politicalhumor #onlineclass
By all appearances, friendly and harmless Roger Chapman was a shaker by night, and a mover by day. Like, literally. He worked for The Otis Moving Company in Columbus, Ohio for roughly six weeks. When he lost his job for playing pocket-pool all day, (and dropping furniture) because his hands were always occupied, he took on a career as a singer/songwriter and released his first single “Let’s Spend The Night Together,” only to get sued by the Rolling Stones. Unfortunately, Roger had to spend all of his savings to get out of his legal woes. Roger was arrested in 1987 for “selective walking” behind a group of school girls, and rubbing one out under his moving uniform, which he wore daily. While in jail he wrote his next autobiographical single, “Creep” which made him a fortune by suing Radiohead and winning a sizable settlement for their blatant plagiarism, years later. These days Roger is retired and lives in Toronto in a nursing facility, where he’s allowed an hour every day to use the WiFi. He’s now taken his stalkbooking online. With Faceturbation and as his main outlet, Roger will likely die a lonely, perpetually-aroused text offender, and will likely be buried in his stiff red moving uniform, which is permanently stuck to his frontal regions.

It’s all fun and games until someone touches Jimmy’s trouser snake in a scary dark place. Every weekend at the William’s home, there’s a hole lot of inappropriate touching going on with a new Milton Bradley game that’s sure to give you all the feels. This new tabletop glory hole game for you and that extra special pervy neighbor, is sure to grip you and hold you captive for hours. Horney adults are pitted one against the other to identify objects by sense of touch only. Frogs, wet noodles, crabs, spiders, are fair game. But somehow, Jimmy Thompson read the directions all wrong. Tonight, Jimmy’s schwetty balls got him sent to the emergency room when Gabby expected a frog like last time. “Hey! No banana’s or nuts allowed in this game,“ she yelled! “It’s in the rules!” And just like that, she gripped just a little too hard, nearly pulling Jimmy’s dick straight off. Everyone got a funny feeling that night, but Jimmy wasn’t laughing! Tommy tried to stick his entire head in the hole to catch a glimpse of Jimmy’s sack and ripped the entire game in two—sending everyone home. Warning; Children under five are asked to play with adult supervision (as if that’s any better). Note: The game contains many small objects, and participants may swallow them. . . . . #miltonbradley #cantbereallife #realorfake #pervy #pervygamenight #gamenight #gamenights #boredgames #boardgames #twistedgames #1970s #1960s #advertisements #parody #satire #comedywriting #writersofinstagram #narrative #laughteristhebestmedicine #laughterisgood #funnymeme #funny #funandgames #itsallfunandgames #itsallfunandgamesuntil #freaky #dickinabox #hilarous #hilariousmemes #writerscommunity
