Summary

Special musical guest Murder by Death returns to improv4humans along with improvisers Brian Huskey, Betsy Sodaro, and Eugene Cordero! Murder by Death plays songs off their latest album “The Other Shore” that inspire scenes about which holidays astronauts can come out of cryosleep for, a guitar-shaped spacecraft, and an artist whose work gets drastically misinterpreted. Plus, a sleep study deals with troublesome patients, and a homesick space colonist can’t find anything good to say about his new planet.

Improvisers. Now let's talk to Adam, the lead singer. Can you introduce everyone in your band?

We're going to start with a nice downer to get us warmed up. It's called Only Time. It's a depressing

1:06.4

tale of being stuck, trying to stuck in a spaceship while you travel for many years, attempting to

1:15.1

find the person that you love, but just floating through space. Is this for real about being a spaceship?

1:21.7

Yeah, so this whole record, and every time we're going to play today, it's a big concept record

1:27.2

if you want it to be. It's also just some songs that I'm feeling. It's called The Other Shores,

1:32.4

The New L-Man. Yeah, and so it's kind of about chasing a loved one across space to try to find

It is. I am so psyched, but I did not realize that. Yeah, well, the hope is that it can also

1:50.9

just be something you listen to. I didn't know the plot. All right, let's do it.

2:14.9

I have a time, a time enough to make up my mind, how to say it right. One time's got tough,

2:35.1

I made my bed, then I lay in it. It was my chance, my moment, to take the range, to face the day,
