Shoulda Said takes a standup "joke jam", where a standup comic works out their joke ideas with fellow standups to try to make them even funnier, and combines it with scenes improvised based on ideas from those jokes. A group of amateur comedians from Toronto learn what they shoulda said instead when their sets have different angles shone on them when they make it up on the spot.
Shoulda Said owes its existence to the concepts it stole from the podcasts Working It Out by Mike Birbiglia and Hey Riddle Riddle by Adal Rifai, Erin Keif and John Patrick Coan.

Episode 3 is very different from the previous 2 episodes, and features in-depth discussion of bits, premises, therapy, trauma, and sex. This episode features Sarah Edwards, Forest Olsen, and your hosts Brooke Converse and Joe Drew.
03:31 - Forest goes "Forest Long" on a bit about a good friend of his who is a little *too* open about her interest in reading, and then we visit a made-up book club.
33:36 - Hear Forest's bit as it was performed live at https://www.instagram.com/softboyspresents/
41:41 - Sarah has a novel use for her Apple Watch, and then we make up a whole lot of very realistic, not at all contrived uses for other pieces of everyday technology.
1:00:09 - Brooke has a premise that definitely doesn't lead us to think she's passive aggressive; nope, not at all. Then we invent a world in which everyone's second sentence is taken ENTIRELY RATIONALLY.
1:13:06 - Joe's most stressful time is related to his high-tech job. Then the group unpack his presentation style???
