Guest: Glen Tickle Tries to Be a Person

When comedian Glen Tickle made a list of ways to try to be better at comedy, he realized the list was a combination of personality flaws, bad habits, and neurodiversity. If Glen is going to become a better comedian, he'll have to first become a better person. Which seems hard actually. That list and the ways he has tried to address it have shaped his current hour of standup in a way he wasn't expecting, but here we are.

Guest: Comedy On Deck: Well Seasoned - There are lots of Rochester comedians, but only one married comedy couple. As comics of a certain age (mid-50s), Lisa and Scott Fybush produce Comedy On Deckshows in their back yard every summer. To many younger comics, they're the local "comedy mom and dad," and they're real-life parents of two young adults. Their comedy shows have been fan favorites at past Fringe fests. This year, for the first time, they're sharing the spotlight as co-headliners in their own new show.
