Episode 150: Modi and Periel are joined by Dovie Neuburger for a candid exploration of Jewish comedy.
We unpack the unique dynamics of performing for Jewish audiences versus mainstream clubs. Neuberger's honesty about his comedic journey is refreshing -from craving attention to finding deeper purpose.
The conversation reveals fascinating insider knowledge about comedy craft, from Modi's veteran wisdom on audience management to Neuberger's evolving approach to material development. We dissect the paradoxical rules of performing for Orthodox audiences ("you can't curse, but you can be super offensive"), share war stories from Passover program gigs, and examine how cultural specificity can become universally relatable.
