Episode 50: The Sex Offender Registry Ft. Jarret Berenstein - a podcast by David Horning

If you're convicted of a sex crime with a victim, absolutely you should have to register as a sex offender in order to help keep your neighborhood safe. But if you end up on the sex offender registry for something as harmless as relieving yourself in public, engaging in sexual acts in a public place (with no one around, of course), or taking innocuous photos of your kid in the tub... that can be fertile ground for humor.
Which is why we invited TimeOut NY's Critics' Choice Jarret Berenstein, who has a killer joke about this exact topic. In this episode, we talk about:
-Jarret's novel, "The Kellyanne Conway Technique."
-Megan’s Law.
-Jarret’s bit about the sex offender registry.
-Changing the location of a joke for a stronger punchline.
-Re-framing your life as a sitcom where you're the main character.
-The places we've had sex in public.
-Establishing morality when approaching a controversial topic.
-Developing an onstage persona to get away with certain material.
-The kind of adult who brags about sexual conquests.
-If famous speakers throughout history bragged about getting laid.
-Easing the audience into dark topics.
-David Britton’s joke about registering to be a sex offender.
-The Mr. Show sketch about Larry Kleist, rapist.
-Parents taking harmless naked pictures of their kids and ending up as sex offenders.
-Some of the other innocuous ways people have been labeled as sex offenders.
-When your closing joke bombs.
