What's it like balancing your pursuit of true love with the pursuit of your biggest dream? This week we find out with a guy who is extremely passionate about both, Ellis Rodriguez (Hart of the City, San Francisco International Comedy Competition winner). Catfish, "side-chicks", and exes pepper this episode's journey through finding ways to make love and comedy function for a working comedian.
We have one of our most in-depth discussions of joke writing and we all learn something. Then we play a quick round of "Pocketed Punchlines" that turns into a great relationship discussion. Love pops up everywhere this week!
Follow hosts @aurorasinghcomedy and @drewshafercomedy and our guest @ellistrated for more hilarious content.
