Episode 2: Blazing in Brooklyn

The coffee is artisanal. The creamer is contraband. And HR definitely knows a guy.

This month on Dear Eunice, an office coffee feud spirals into beverage tampering, miraculous cholesterol, recreational sand-eating, Goat Get 'Em Coffee, and an HR department with disturbingly strong CIA connections.

Third-wave coffee. Questionable medicine. Weaponized Human Resources.

Welcome to Dear Eunice.

Expanded Reality TV is a podcast where improv comedians create absurd audio performances based on behind-the-scenes stories of real reality television stars, building new weird worlds from the things that people don't see when watching their favorite "unscripted" TV shows.

Episode #3 features an interview with Ann Hirsch, a performance artist and former contestant on the reality television show Frank The Entertainer…In A Basement Affair (Vh1)! Inspired by Ann Hirsch's interview, our ensemble will take you on a deep dive into Frank Sinatra's unique songwriting process, obsessed fans of Jennie Wants A Billionaire, the new reality show Losers Seeking Losers, home renovation projects, shrubbery, an accounting firm with too many Jims, a sneaky Bartholomew, and the shocking horrors of…linoleum flooring!

(Grandpa) Once Said is a podcast where real stories about the people who shape our lives become inspiration for improvised comedy. We listen to stories about grandparents, aunts, uncles, friends, and friends of friends—the memorable people whose personalities, quirks, wisdom, and experiences stay with us—and we use those stories as jumping-off points to create improvised characters, scenes, and worlds.

This episode features stories from Laura Powell. Laura shares stories about her hilarious Aunt Connie, who was known for saying "It's better to burp and taste it, than fart and waste it!"

💔❤️💞🩷 RIP Aunt Connie, you are missed.
