Summary
This week on The JTrain Podcast, Jared is joined by comedian Dan Soder for a classic Chit Chat Wednesday. They kick things off with laughs about body types, ranch dressing, and upcoming shows before diving into a wide-ranging conversation. Dan shares his fitness routine, stories from life on the road, and why he prefers hanging out with eager new comics over bitter old ones in the green room. The two swap food favorites, reminisce about their college days, and debate tipping etiquette for green room staff. They also get into comedy shop talk, from opener etiquette and overlapping material to how comedians should treat their audiences. To top it off, they imagine a hilarious comedy Supreme Court made up of the most influential comics. It is a fun, unfiltered hang between two sharp comics you will not want to miss!
