041 PRODUCING YOUR OWN SHOWS - PAULINA COMBOW [podcast] - a podcast by Rik Roberts

from 2015-03-27T20:15:54

:: ::

Former student Paulina Combow stops by the studios to inspire and inform us of her progress.


Paulina attended college in a small town in Western, KY where she learned Mass Communications. After graduating, she felt a “comedy internal clock” ticking and decided to berth that comedy baby. She started in the Fall of 2011 and hasn’t stopped since.


Paulina is a force of nature. Not only does she co-host a morning radio program and put on three separate independent comedy shows a month, she also finds time to travel to do a few gigs on the road and appear at LaughsFest.


In this episode we talk specifically about:



  • One thing she took away from the writing class that put things in perspective for her

  • The differences between her open mics at bars and one at the bookstore on Vanderbilt University campus

  • Her philosophy on the clean vs dirty debate

  • Her list of her “demands" for any venue if they want her to start a comedy show

  • The few benefits (and challenges) of being a female comic

  • Using her credentials as a radio personality to gain access to venues and entertainers

  • Her experience doing a showcase at LaughFest in Grand Rapids, MI


and much, much more!
