“I promote Jimmy’s podcast to our improv students,because as an eternal improv student myself, Jimmy has been my teacher longer than anyone. And, as I do not live in Chicago, Improv Nerd is the best online classroom that exists. I love the format - deeply personal tales of Jimmy’s life, illustrating vulnerability required to truly let go for your partner onstage, followed by an interview with this week’s improv luminary, The interview is also personal, and helps us see what is behind the craft and what fuels it. It’s also a lovely improv history lesson, as each week another pin is planted in the Map of the Improv World, rendering it more detailed and faceted. Finally, Jimmy and his guest(s) improvise a scene together - using the Slow Comedy methods pioneered by Del Close and for which Jimmy is one of the preeminent teachers - and it’s a genuine treat to see (hear?) Jimmy improvise - he can be a very supportive and deep character in a way that has not often been seen since Phil Hartman. If you love improv, be a nerd - an Improv Nerd - like Jummy and me.”
