Host Stephen Perlstein sits down with a different guest from the improvisation community each week on Improv Obsession-Conversations About Improvising Better. This isn't just a series of comedy tips, though you'll certainly pick those up along the way. Instead, these are deep, meandering, and genuinely funny conversations that get at the heart of why people are drawn to improv in the first place. You'll hear performers, teachers, and writers break down the subtle mechanics of a great scene, share stories of glorious failures, and discuss the philosophies that guide their work off-stage as much as on. Produced by Boardwalk Audio, the podcast thrives on the spontaneous energy and thoughtful reflection that defines the art form itself. It’s about the obsession with the craft-the tiny choices, the shared trust, and the pursuit of that elusive, perfect moment of unscripted connection. Tune in for a regular dose of insight and laughter that feels like eavesdropping on a fantastic green room conversation between friends who happen to be experts at making things up.
