Mini Episode No. 6: Offensive Comedy

In this mini episode we advise on how to avoid offending people with your comedy.

It's a hotbed topic! People go atwitter with complaints about a comic's bit, people say "you can't joke about anything anymore," established comedians say political correctness and woke culture is ruining comedy. Oof! What to do? We talk about creating comedy that doesn't offend and how to handle being told your comedy was offensive.
