6S, ep. 1 - NYC Clown, Funmi Adejobi, learns improv live on the show.

This week on #NoSuggestionPod, we start Some Suggestions Sometimes Summer School Series, AKA 6S. All summer long I'll invite different past No Suggestion guests, all of whom are some of the best improvisors, and improv teachers, in NYC, to give a stand-up comedian, clown, or other miscellaneous NYC performer with no improv experience, a private improv lesson live on the air.

We're blessed to have our first guest be Funmilayo Adejobi, known to most as Funmi (@liluziflert). Funmi is an NYC clown who is beloved in the improv scene for her bold audacious performing, her infectious charm, and her unique story.

This week I'm joined by guest co-hosts, the great Katy Berry (@katyberrycomedy) and Mariel Grullon (@jezusthebodegacat). This is one hour of jumping into the nitty-gritty comedy theory, how improv works, and how it compares, contrasts, and compliments the art-form of clown, all in one hour. This is a big experiment, and the results vary, but we had great fun figuring this out. Enjoy this mad, interesting, experimental, and educational episode, our first episode of 6S.

Funmi is currently fundraising to help fund bringing her one-person clown show, Fish, directed by past No Suggestion, guest the lovable Chris Manley (@chrismanley), to the Edinburgh Fringe Fest this summer. Click this link to donate to Funmi.
