Well, our resident Seamus Kelly tell us, yea, pretty much, it certainly happens.</p> <p>Next up we speak about the controversy that one of Rory’s Stories videos caused last week, you can check out the video here: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKXGeeK4dvU" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKXGeeK4dvU</a>. Again we tackle why everybody loves to get offended by comedy, the video touches on a subject that many people see on a daily basis, couple fighting but maybe some have read too much into it or maybe the video trivialises domestic abuse.</p> <h3>Veronica Kwiatkowski Interview</h3> <p>Our first guest on this week’s Comedy Cast, comedy podcast, is a rising star of the LA comedy scene, <a href="https://www.veronicakallday.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Veronica Kwiatkowski</a>, we speak about how and why she got into comedy, her comedy night in Santa Monica, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/FunnyAFComedy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Funny as Fuck</a>, and we get a bit nerdy on why the comedy in American clubs has to be so fast with punchlines.</p> <p>Check out Veronica Kwiatkowski’s website, where you can watch her videos and get her social media profiles: <a href="https://www.veronicakallday.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.veronicakallday.com/</a></p> <h3>Funny Podcasts</h3> <p>Seamus and Spud are back then and they speak about Yes Days, this fad doing the rounds where parents give their children a day where they must say ‘yes’ to everything; pizza for breakfast, yes, kangeroo for lunch, err…yes, can get move granny to a nursing home, errr….you betcha.
