This Week

A review of Funhouse Lounge’s Puppet Fight Club

Have you noticed that things have been a little…mmm…loose lately at Studio 5UDBS? A little more carefree as we approach Episode 100? This episode is no exception to the recent messiness. In fact, this week’s guest host, Austen Anderson, summed up the feeling of recording Episode 99 perfectly (we paraphrase here): “I feel like this is the last day of class before school gets out for the summer.†Yeah…an improvised review of an improv show you can’t see anymore. Hosts and guests hosts intentionally drinking bad whisky. A disagreement about the nature of the calendar, who should do it, etc. Theatre Around the World getting longer and longer…and longer. Devolution into laughter. This lazy-ass post text. Episode 100 is coming, and change is in the air. So for one more episode in this fashion: whatever.
