S01E01 with Kristen Drenning and improv from Shelby

Welcome to the W.I.M.P.Y. Podcast! WE Improv Makes Podcast for You, hosted by me Jake Jabbour (WE Improv, Puddy, The Meat Improv). WIMPY is a an improv talk show where the guest interview is with an improviser from a different community and the musical guest is an improv team. This is episode one. I talk the who, what, where and why of the podcast before interviewing Austin improviser and teacher, Kristen Drenning (Hot Basement Rats - Fallout Theater, The Monster, Coldtowne Theater). Then the improv team Shelby (Tyler Pruyn, Riley Doyle, Siena Jeakle, Matt Cortezie, Anise Hines-Theus, Ryn Davis, Ellen Burns, Matt Bernstein) performs a living room montage and a Slacker. The audio is not great, but I’m working on it for future episodes. Thanks for being a part of the process! Check out WEImprov.org for shows, classes, merch and my book Elevator Farts. And if you’re in LA come see a show at The WE Space. If you are an improviser outside Los Angeles and want to chat on the pod, email me at weimprovcomedy@gmail.com subject line WIMPY CHAT. If you are an improv team and want to come on and play, email me at weimprovcomedy@gmail.com subject line WIMPY TEAM. Shoutout to Lisa Gilroy for our music.
