    Dean and KA$H cover a little bit of everything in this episode, which is code for comedy advice, retail trauma, and holiday arguments no one could have predicted.

    The Comedy Tip dives into booking other comics and why clearly communicating details can save friendships, group chats, and entire comedy scenes.

    We recap a Puzzle Competition, where Stan Dabrowski and KA$H teamed up to somehow pull off the win, talk about Dean’s first day at the new job, and why the studio now looks like a festive hostage situation thanks to new decorations.

    Also discussed: When the Christmas tree should come down with Dean’s shocking tree confession, picking up Jess’s Target order, and how other mobile order pickup systems like Kohl’s new pickup system feels like it was designed by someone who doesn’t mind theft.

    Plus plenty of side quests, detours, and “how did we get here?” moments along the way.

    This week starts before the show even starts — when Ka$h warns Dean he’s about to say something not to be taken out of context that might sound kinda mean but was meant in much jest.

    From there, the vibes go much much up.

    Dean talks about coming out of a rough two-month stretch and finally feeling his energy shift, we unpack the Stranger Things finale (without spoilers), and Ka$h reveals what he’s been watching lately.

    This week’s Gorilla Mind pitch: How energy, mindset, and fuel actually affect performance.

    And our comedy tip of the week: How to take a small joke or premise and expand it into a full bit without forcing it.

    Friends of all ages, raised vibes, pop culture therapy, and practical comedy advice — much much of everything.

    Happy New Year! 🎉

    Dean and KASH kick off the year by checking in after the holidays, swapping Christmas stories, KASH reflects on being part of the 2025 Year in Review show.

    The guys give an honest take on Gorilla Mind’s Exotic Kiwi flavor, they dive into immersive video games that completely pull you out of reality.

    They debate which version of the 12 Days of Christmas everyone actually knows (because apparently there’s more than one).

    The episode wraps with a comedy tip focused on setting goals as we head into the future. Dean shares a surprisingly deep and personal goal for 2026—one that isn’t really about comedy… but might change everything anyway.

    New year. Same chaos. New perspective.

    It’s our Christmas episode! Dean and KASH kick things off by sharing their holiday celebrations before KASH drops a surprise: a movie he’s permanently removing from his holiday movie definitive collection. This sparks a conversation about what movies they’ve been watching this season—though Dean admits he’s barely watched anything.

    Dean also gets into some of the exotic pets he’s had over the years, including a Madagascar hissing cockroach, adding some hilarious holiday-adjacent chaos. Meanwhile, KASH talks about his upcoming show for Cheshire Cat Comedy: a 2025 Year in Review. Dean shares details about a show he’s being booked for that has booker levels layered like Russian nesting dolls, giving a behind-the-scenes peek at comedy booking madness.

    Of course, Dean has been bingeing Welcome to Derry, which leads to a hilarious dive into his TikTok about the top five characters who could defeat Pennywise. KASH jumps in on the spot with his own list, adding even more laughs.
    The Top of the Week focuses on writing holiday and seasonal tips, and the episode wraps with KASH’s final thoughts on holiday movies.

    Now available on YouTube (audio-only) and all your favorite podcast platforms—perfect to get you in the festive spirit!

    This week on Move the Mic Stand, Dean Berg and Ka$h Money Karl kick things off with Ka$h’s unfortunate eardrum situation, which somehow spirals into a very serious discussion about sneezing.

    From there, the guys check in on what they’re drinking from Gorilla Mind, then break down a fun night at their regular open mic — the weird moments, the good sets, and the little things you only notice when you’re in the room working material.

    They also drop a comedy tip about referencing the room: why it matters, how to do it right, and why jokes land harder when everyone knows exactly what you’re talking about right now — not later.

    Things wrap up with talk about gravy packets, Ka$h’s set experiments, and a deep dive into walk-up songs — the ones you choose versus the ones mysteriously assigned to you at open mics.

    Real comics. Real reps. Real talk.

    In this episode of Move the Mic Stand, Dean and Kash kick things off with Kash’s new commitment to politeness—literally raising his hand every time he wants to talk.

    From there, the conversation launches into everything from the disappearance of artificial food dyes to why some people completely missed the point of Dean’s TikTok about the joy of Saturday morning cartoons and a simple bowl of cereal.

    The guys dive into nostalgia, rant about scalpers ruining Christmas by flipping kids’ toys, and explore the strange charm of antiques that no one needs but everyone ends up talking about.

    Then it’s time for the Comedy Tip of the Week: Stop letting street jokes win.

    Dean and Kash break down why unoriginal, recycled jokes keep slipping into competitions—and why real comedians need to push originality instead of leaning on decades-old material.

    They also shout out Gorilla Mind, their new partnership, how the products help fuel the show, and how listeners can support the podcast using Code 20 at checkout on the Gorilla Mind website.

    Another episode full of laughs, nostalgia, and a little chaos—raise your hand if you’re ready.

    Move the Mic Stand - Bomb A$$ with Chuck Charles: Three Comics, One Pizza!
    Dec 4 2025
    This episode is sponsored by: Mini Golf Reviews

    Special Guest: Chuck Charles

    This week on Move the Mic Stand, Dean and Karl welcome special guest and close friend Chuck Charles for a Bomb A$$ conversation that goes way off the rails in the best way possible.

    Dean kicks things off bragging (rightfully) about the bomb a$$ casserole he cooked earlier today, which somehow leads to the crew designing the ultimate Move the Mic Stand specialty pizza—a wishlist sponsor special loaded with the wild toppings only comedians would dare suggest.
    And yes… Dean might go on a Bomb A$$ rant about a recent comedy show he and Karl did. (You know Dean—zero filter, full send.)

    If you like food, comedy, chaos, and Chuck Charles, this episode is a certified Bomb A$$ time.

  • Move the Mic Stand - Jigsaw Jiggalos and Thanksgiving UFOs

    Move the Mic Stand - Jigsaw Jiggalos and Thanksgiving UFOs
    Nov 27 2025
    This episode is sponsored by: Mini Golf Reviews

    This Thanksgiving, Dean and Karl serve up a holiday episode that’s equal parts cozy, chaotic, and completely on-brand. Karl embraces his new identity as a full-fledged “jigsaw jiggalo,” and seeks a million dollar idea of single serve shredded cheese bags. While, Dean insists you can make a pie out of any drinkable liquid, and somehow it all leads into a wild UFO tale involving a mysterious desert artifact and a blinding blue flash.

    This week’s comedy tip is all about thankfulness — appreciating the journey, being grateful for each other, and recognizing how much bookers, audiences, and the comedy community shape the ride. It’s a heartfelt moment tucked between all the absurdity.

    It’s the Thanksgiving episode you didn’t know you needed: laughs, aliens, puzzles, pie science, and a reminder to be grateful for the weird, wonderful path we’re all on.
