Two Joke Minimum
You’re backstage, the room smells like stale beer and ambition, and the conversation is flowing faster than the drinks. That’s the vibe Two Joke Minimum captures every episode. Hosted by stand-up comics Ray Jubela and Steve Tracy, this podcast feels less like an interview and more like pulling up a chair in the green room after a show. Their guests are the sharp, rising voices from the local scene-the comics you’ll be hearing about everywhere soon. The talk inevitably circles back to the craft, the grind, and the bizarre, beautiful chaos of building a life in comedy. You’ll hear war stories from last night’s gig, debates over what really works on stage, and the kind of shop talk that only happens between performers who’ve shared a dimly lit mic. It’s a raw, unfiltered look at the business of being funny, straight from the people living it. Tune in for the kind of honest, laugh-filled conversations that remind you why they do this in the first place. This isn’t a polished, distant look at comedy; it’s the inside baseball, delivered with the warmth and humor of two seasoned hosts who are still deeply in love with the game.
