Bob Odenkirk’s career is inexplicable. And yet he will try like hell to explicate it for you. Charting a “Homeric” decades-long “odyssey” from his origins in the seedy comedy clubs of Chicago to a dramatic career full of award nominations - with a side trip into the action-man world that is baffling to all who know him - it’s almost like there are many Bob Odenkirks! But there is just one and one is plenty. Featuring humorous tangents, wild characters, and Bob’s trademark unflinching drive, Comedy Comedy Comedy Drama is a classic tale told by a determined idiot.

Comedy is king. From multimillion-dollar TV specials to sold-out stand-up shows and TikTok stardom, comedy has never been more popular, democratized, or influential. Comedians have become organizing forces across culture—as trusted as politicians and as fawned-over as celebrities—yet comedy as an art form has gone under-considered throughout its history, even as it has ascended as a cultural force.

Language learning is seen as something incredibly difficult, and most speakers of English are brought up with the idea that we English speakers just aren't good at learning languages. But what if this isn't the true story? What if you could easily learn a new language and have fun doing it? In this book, I pull back the curtain to reveal the mindset and methodology of a polyglot. This book will dispel the myths, lay the foundations of the correct mindset for success, and inspire you to commit to learning that language you've always wanted to master.

Resumen del Editor
The Upright Citizens Brigade Comedy Improvisation Manual is a comprehensive guide to the UCB style of long form comedy improvisation. Written by UCB founding members Matt Besser, Ian Roberts, and Matt Walsh, the manual covers everything from the basics of two person scene work (with a heavy emphasis on finding "the game" of the scene), to the complexities of working within an ensemble to perform long form structures, such as "The Harold" and "The Movie".
A practical "how to" book, the guide provides exercises throughout to help the listener master each new concept and technique introduced. While the manual is written to be understood by beginners with no previous exposure to improvisational comedy, experienced improvisors will find it to be an excellent resource for honing their skills, clarifying concepts, and generally taking their work to a higher level.

Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

In 1963, 30-year-old Friedman - who had recently quit his job as a Boston advertising executive and returned to his hometown of New York to become a theatrical producer - opened a coffee house for Broadway performers called the Improvisation. His goal? Simply to make a living, and if all went according to plan, to also make enough professional contacts to be able to mount his first Broadway show within a year's time. Later shortened to the Improv, its first West 44th Street location was in a seedy section of Manhattan's Hell's Kitchen.

At the height of the McCarthy era, an experimental theater troupe set up shop in a bar near the University of Chicago. Via word-of-mouth, astonished crowds packed the ad-hoc venue to see its unscripted, interactive, consciousness-raising style. From this unlikely seed grew the Second City, the massively influential comedy theater troupe, and its offshoots - the Groundlings, Upright Citizens Brigade, SNL, and a slew of others. Sam Wasson charts the meteoric rise of improv in this richly reported, scene-driven narrative.

Awesome review
This book is an awesome review of all the fundamentals of improv. Great read as a refresher. If you haven’t done improv before, I’d suggest getting into a class or two before starting this book. Because it’s so dense it could easily become over whelming if you’re to new to improv. Highly recommended.

The Gold Standard
I have the print version as well and questioned what I could learn from listening to it. A lot, apparently. This book is the gold standard for anyone embarking on an adventure in long form improv. While there are a lot of Improv books on my bookshelf, this does the best job at laying out the fundamentals of long form.

Best Course on Comedy
Just about everyone knows of the, "yes and," technique in improv, but I didn't realize that it is only the start until you find the first unusual thing, and then you play, "if then," which says, "if x is true, then what else will be true in this fantasy world we've cooked up?"
This book is free when you have audible plus, but I'm putting it on my wishlist and will probably pick it up with a credit the next time I have one because this course is meaty, and worth having even in the months where I'm not doing audible plus.

Helped me understand principles of improv
I read this then went to see professional improv. Made a HUGE difference in my understanding and appreciation of the art of improv. I am starting improv lessons next week. Reason I didn’t give 5 stars is some of the example were really annoying to me and I didn’t like the acting of all of the comics. But stick with it! A must if you want to try improv yourself!

A Dissertation on Long-form Improv
This book is a thorough explanation of long-form improv. It covers the UCB model of long-form improv. It explains why UCB uses their model and provides several examples of how to apply these techniques. It goes line-by-line through example scenes to explain in detail the purpose of each line of dialogue. It provides several examples of excellent and not-so-good improv tactics. This book is written like a college textbook. It does not take improv lightly, which is very refreshing. I have learned more from this book than the 100+ hours I have put into live improv classes. Highly recommended.
