Our guest today is hitting his record 6 time appearance on the pod which means we get him roughly once a year and even that blows my mind. You’ve seen him in countless Film and TV projects from The Great and Powerful OZ to Get Hard. He’s one half of an iconic improv duo you can show to you parents and say “see, this is why I do it” to help make them understand with TJ and Dave and you can currently catch him in his new movie alongside Matt Trudeu, Meir Steinberg, and Michael Shannon called BULLS streaming on Apple TV+. Heck of card player, helluva a magnet fisherman, and one of the all time great improvisers, It's TJ Jagodowski.

Improv Perverts, we got her back!

Our guest today is quite possibly one of the funniest people we’ve ever had the privilege of performing with. In 2016 she was stretched out by Orlando Bloom on Netflix’s EASY, she’s had roles on Chicago Med and PD, for years she absolutely put on a clinic at Second City on their ETC stage providing them with countless characters that they will cash in on for years to come. She’s truly one of a kind, it’s Laurel Krabacher.

We chat'n'prov about what makes a bf a bff, TV roles, and getting set on fire for a big finale.

Thanks to Nick McMillin for putting this together and to all the improv perverts who sent us their favorite scenes. Thanks to everyone who listened to the pod this year new and old! Y'all rule and it makes doing the pod that much more fun when we know folks are enjoying themselves!
