Dustin Kaufman at the Comedy Club KC is joined by comedian Kyle Kinane! They were on a roll and this one became a longer XL-sized episode. In this podcast, Kyle explains his general distaste for podcasts, and social media in general! Dustin and Kyle discuss the craft of stand-up comedy, personal validation and expression, comic identity including appearance vs. personal identity, the perils of dating later in life, and the tension around suggesting ideas to other comics.
