About this Episode
In this episode of That Was Wild, Adam Macias sits down with Josh Edelman to talk about the grind of the comedy world, social media strategy, and how to juggle being a comedian, producer, and documentary filmmaker. From meme-ing the news to producing undiscovered talent at the improv, Josh is here to spill the beans on how he stays prolific and why sometimes it feels like the only way to avoid the crushing weight of existential dread is to stay busy. 🎤💥
Josh opens up about his viral documentary Mental Al about Al Lubell, the legendary comedian who mixes dark humor with an alternative style of comedy before it was even cool, and how creating content for social media isn’t always as glamorous as it looks. From Instagram memes to creating viral stand-up videos, Josh gives us an inside look at the trial and error of trying to keep up with the pace of content creation.
Plus, Adam and Josh talk about the chaotic world of producing multiple comedy shows and how comedy is often about community building as much as performing. They dive deep into what it’s like being part of a scene that’s constantly evolving - whether it’s through social media clout or a tight-knit comedy club family.
So, if you're ready for some behind-the-scenes insights into the real grind of the comedy industry and how social media can make you or break you, hit play, like, subscribe, and share with your friend who thinks they can "do comedy full-time"—but still hasn’t posted their first TikTok. 🎧🔥
