From the Middle - Comedy and Fair-ness

Published: Aug. 14, 2019, 5 a.m.

b'#013. A quick note about our segment where we discuss whether comedians should get a free pass on edgy material. We do not endorse or condone everything that every comedian has ever said or done. In the true sense of the word, we discuss this topic in generalities concerning the industry, not in isolated events.

Now on to the catchier description!

The episode title is a pun! How funny! Or is it? Some folks love puns. Others hate them. Yes, this has been psychologically studied. \\xa0So we talk about that. Also, is edgy stand-up comedy appropriate? If a line is crossed, should we give comedians a pass? Also, fairs are great for food and people watching. Kory does fact checks. It is obviously baseball season. Kendall slept in a haunted hotel and woke up with a tattoo. And that last line was click-bait. So click and listen!
