This week we have a fun, rambling podcast with Dave's karmic doppelganger Cale Bain (Jason's description.) For a podcast that never begins, we cover off an awful lot, including a live dog attack. Please enjoy this wonderfully laid back podcast. It's so very charming.

Our guest this week is the gentle giant of the improv community, Joe Bill. So full of great conversation we give you our longest podcast to date, and we could have easily kept it all going. We discuss jazz, the brain on improvisation, our fears and how things have changed as we've grown inside this artform. A podcast that's so full of gems it's worth listening twice. Enjoy.

We were lucky enough to get to spend an hour with Jen O'Sullivan from Wellington NZ. She's an amazing improviser, festival director, and all-round wonder woman. On top of all that, she's a new mum and we had the pleasure of podcasting with her new baby making new baby sounds all the way through this podcast. We were so happy at the end of this podcast because this chat was so genuinely lovely. We can't wait for you to hear it!
