Love the Bomb

Comedian Nick Noble joins Luke and Loren for his second episode. The boys talk about magic (with and without a 'k'), showrunning, and, as always, bombing.

John Hays is a musician and comedian who has been in cage fights, fought cops, rode bulls, and recommended some pretty stellar music. He talks about all that, space, bombing and more. Thanks for listening.

Jack Snodgrass is a stand-up comedian and former professional baseball player. He talks about playing baseball in a politically tumultuous Venezuela, transitioning to comedy, and bombing.

Jerrel Beamon is a comedian from Dayton who is taking the comedy scene by storm. He talks about uncomfortable rural shows, gives some very nice compliments to your hosts, and bombs at being a car-owner and a comedian.

Three years ago Luke headed out with today's guest, comedian Justin Adkins, on a tour of the slightly east of the Midwest, bringing amateur comedy to bars, laundromats, thrift stores, and any place that would have them and their barely road-legal RV. They recount lost loves, run-ins with the law, and, of course, bombing at comedy.

We don't really talk about bombing much but Stewart Huff is amazing. Thanks for listening.

Episode 2 of the Gretchen Schultz/Connor Loughran Saga. Go back and watch the first one if you haven't, but to recap: Connor and Gretchen are a musical/comedy power couple and they're fun and interesting to listen to. We get to both bombing stories in this half and just have a good old time.  

Connor Loughran and Gretchen Schultz are Cincinnati's musical/comedy power couple so it makes sense that they would be in HILTSWALTB's first two part episode. Luke, Loren, Connor, and Gretchen talk about starting comedy during a global pandemic, band camp, and how they all ran for class office and only Connor won because he's a nerd.

Nick Noble is started in the comedy game around the same time as Luke and Loren and the nostalgia is palpable. The boys reflect on old times, on how their perspective in comedy has changed, and about entering a life of horse thievery.

BIG ACID, Karl is awesome. Thanks For Listening

Comedian, fun boy, and recent album recorder Andrew Rudick comes on the pod to talk about the early days of open mic hosting, bombing at trying to be a professor, and how not to ask for something from a booker.

Comedian Tabari McCoy schools Luke and Loren on hip hop, Cincinnati sports, why teachers should be legally allowed to do any drug, and, of course, bombing.

On this week's episode we take a departure from our usual format to talk to comedian Mohammad Patel about how he bombed at life, learned to love himself, and redeemed himself through stand up.

Ron is originally from Cincinnati and like most comics that are from here he moved to Chicago to get real good at comedy. Now he is real good at comedy and his special is on pornhub!! thanks for listening.

Alex is doing more than most people and thats just his freetime. Between animation, sketchs, stand up and painting this dude keeps pretty damn busy. thanks for listening

The best part of doing this show is meeting some of the best folks I could ever hope to meet. Rachel is no exception. Her Down to earth nature and go with the flow attitude have made her a poster child for saying yes. I wanted to hear all about the flow arts but instead we learned what happens when you have a yes day at the gathering of the juggalos and I couldn't have been happier with the tangen...

Comrades! I hope you are enjoying that sweet new sound because we upgraded the set up! I can think of no better person to break in the new gear than Jon Holmes. Jon has been a Cincinnati based comic for over a decade and when he isnt getting kicked out of a ball pit he sometimes listens to podcast but only ones that he was on. You should check out Jon's podcast that he does with a different John!...

What is it like when a violent form of live music goes wrong? Find out in this weeks episode with guest Kevin Schumph! Kevin has toured all over the greater 48 in his hard rock group Lockjaw and he brought all his wonderful stories of things going wrong on the road and here in Cincinnati. Turns out a lot of the same places he used to thrash are places we bomb at so it is a small world after all! t...

Billy has been schooling people on cheese, ranch, and paper shredders for a full decade. His podcast is available anywhere podcasts can be found and is called The New Nasty Boys and that show is cohosted by another favorite comic here at The Bomb, Lee Kimbrell!! Thanks for listening.

Shawn is awesome and has awards to prove it. thanks for listening. 

This episode is super dope. thanks for listening. 

Louisville is one of my favorite cities and Mandee is my favorite comic from that wonderful place in KY. Mandee has a warmth too her that reminds you of fresh cookies out of the oven made with love and extras chocolate chips. Her act has a sharpness to it that will leave you laughing and thinking. In the words of Luke "I Knew Mandee was great but after editing the episode I realized she's a nation...

When I first met this guest I was blown away by her joke writing and her confidence on stage. With years of joke and sketch writing under her belt she dipped her toes into the stand up waters and in a very short amount of time established herself in the Cincinnati comedy scene as one of the local favorites. Bridget is hilarious and if you ever see her name on a poster for a show go see that show!...

Phil is one of the best laughers in the game and he is pretty good at making other folks laugh as well. this was take 2 for Phil's episode and i think this one turned out een better. choose your own adventure with Phil Pointer! Thanks For Listening.

Blake Hammond is one of my favorite people on this planet. His sharp wit and unashamedly honest take on what he observes has given him the tools to take anything he sees and make it funny. Maybe I'm over selling the guy. maybe he's just another over inflated piece of white trash trying to keep your attention long enough to make him forget he's not happy. Either way this dude is hilarious and incre...
