About this listen

The Comedy Writers Group is here to get into the weeds of all things comedy. We're determined to de-mystify the worlds of stand-up comedy, sketch, and screenwriting in an effort to make this world a lot more approachable for newcomers.


This podcast is designed to get you inspired to create.


Perfect for folks interested in getting to comedy as a career, hobby, or just the comedy-curious.
