Summary

Danielle Schneider joins Matt Besser this week for an improv2humans! They perform scenes about a mom who just wants a birthday card on time, a waiter who offers deep-cutting character critiques, and a doctor with acting career advice. Later, a cheerleader gets interrogated about her cheers after a car accident, and the sandwich-on-head bet turns into a flight risk. This episode is sponsored by Bombfell.

Oh, welcome to improv for humans with me, Maddie B. You see, I could have started over.

0:20.8

I just went with that since Sierra Laugh, because you said it's this improv for humans

0:25.8

and I said, you know, it's what I said. You said we're going to let it be, but it's going

0:29.1

to be in it. And then I entered it with welcome to improv for humans. But less than a second

0:32.8

later, it was truly less than a second later. Were you like, I don't know, this is going

0:36.4

to be in the new way. Oh, well, I was like, we know exactly what this is going to be. That's

0:41.1

your improv for humans, boys. Yeah, I guess that an idea, this would be an improv for humans.

0:48.7

Yes, you knew what you wanted it to be. So I thought we'd try and experiment with just

1:33.0

to some Nichols in May recently and the old school improv, how they do the two person relationship

1:40.7

kind of scenes. Are the ones on the albums improv? Like I always thought they were improv

1:46.0

and I feel like you just told me know they were scripted, the ones on the album. Once

1:49.5

they made the album, they became scripted and even once they performed them. But I think

1:54.9

the unique thing about Nichols in May was that they did not write them up. Like they

2:01.2

honed them, but they were created in improv supposedly. That's the story. So they just

2:07.2

memorized them. Like they've never been put to paper. And I just learned this reading this
