Anonymous asked: Hey Carleton, I love Tina Fey's Rules of Improv. They are copyrighted, no? Because I would love to share them with my team at work but do you know, would I need to get from the publisher permission first?

Jordan, Jesse, Go! Episode 203: Bone Manor with... →
Sigh. I relate to this episode more than I’d care to admit. Around minute 25 Jesse starts talking about being asked to apply for a Peabody, which leads to a huge discussion about creating things you’re actually proud of and other quarter-life crisis type anxieties. Not the funniest episode, but well worth a listen.
