Successful comedians often give the advice, “Keep your head down, work hard, and you’ll figure it out.” Stu Melton and Jake Fromm ask them to go deeper and explain how they do what they do best. Each guest shares stories and advice on the things they excel at, like podcasting, writing for television, and producing their own comedy shows. Recorded over the span of six-seven months, Season 1 tracks Stu and Jake’s attempt to improve their own comedy skills while learning from the pros.
