Randy is a literature guy who has written a couple of books about improv and here joins Mark and Bill to talk about WINGING IT: Improv's Power and Peril in the Age of Trump, wherein he basically blames improv for giving us the orange man. Our scenes are about Trumpers hustling a fast food joint and improv for dogs.
Mark and Bill stick around for some post-game bringing in yet another metaphor: music and its stylistic development.
Watch this as unedited video, if you so choose.
