What do Coachella, Bonnaroo, and Stagecoach all have in common? They're NOT the festivals we discuss on this episode! Join us as we interview festival VET, Morgan Gallo, who has appeared in festivals all across the country and knows a thing or two because she's seen a thing or two.
This episode is all about the most divisive comedy gathering, the comedy festival. Before we dive into Morgan's experiences, we learn about dating comedy-adjacent partners (who happen to have met at a comedy festival) and finding the right guy at the right time. We then venture in to find out what makes festivals so great and why comedians should do them and discover Cleveland might be hiding something underneath all the hate it receives. Then we play a quick round of "Pocketed Punchlines" that showcases Florida's finest thinkers!

This week we talk "duck theory" and how comedians can seem calm and confident on the surface while their feet are paddling like hell to keep them afloat. Surprises abound as we discuss our introvert/extrovert nature, the inner thoughts of us at our comedian wedding, and we peel back the curtain and reveal our thoughts while performing. Are Drew and Aurora sane, rational humans, or is there something wrong with them? Guess you need to stay tuned to find out. We end with another "Pocketed Punchlines" where we both have some dark/dirty early comedian thoughts.

What Happens When Two Fools Fall in Love?
When Drew Shafer first saw Aurora Singh take the stage, he knew she was something special. When Aurora first saw Drew, she had to lower her eye-level to even notice he was there. Their mutual love of comedy made them quick friends and soon after, a comedy power couple. Now married, Drew and Aurora get a lot of questions from people wondering how they make it work. "The Love and Comedy Podcast" will tackle these questions along with a variety of comedian guests to show how love and comedy intermingle in life. There will be tons of laughs, the occasional deep thought, and unabashed authenticity often lacking in other relationship podcasts.
