Dane Curley demystifies crowd work, explaining "how the sausage is made" by deconstructing two stand up comedy specials: Todd Barry's The Crowd Work Tour and Andrew Schulz's The Crowd Work Special. Each was filmed and performed with a completely different crowd work technique. Dane also tells the story of a recent comedian's meltdown at his show, and moves off to new topics such as The Intelligence of Robots per Michio Kaku, The Reframing of Human History as posited by Daniel Quinn's The Story of B,  and the "Looming" Recession - that - uh - ::checks stocks portfolio:: - aren't we already in?

Dane's on-air beverage was provided by his friends at G Fuel.
