Media Path Podcast Standup Comedy & Creating A Special with Ivan Decker
Ivan Decker’s standup comedy is sharp, relatable, polished and laugh-out-loud-by-yourself-on-your-couch-or-in-your-bed hilarious! 100% Canadian Content, Ivan is 12% funnier than a comparable American and he has brought his funny to the world square that is Youtube. Ivan’s newest special is called Popcorn and much like its taste-treat namesake, the show is irresistible.
Ivan joins Fritz and Weezy to talk about his roots, his influences, his writing and performing techniques and the joys and challenges he’s encountered along his path. He was named Comic To Watch at the TBS New York Comedy Festival. He was featured in the Netflix special, Comedians of the World. He’s been a regular on CBC’s The Debaters. He’s appeared on Conan and he is a Juno Award winner for his comedy album, I Wanted To Be A Dinosaur. (Juno is Canadian for Grammy.)
Ivan is coming soon to a city near you, but first, he’s here with us on Media Path.
Plus, Fritz and Weezy are recommending the book to media experience that is Apples Never Fall and the Paul Simon doc series, In Restless Dreams.
