Shoulda Said: A Standup Comedy and Improv Podcast

Comedy
Shoulda Said takes a standup "joke jam", where a standup comic works out their joke ideas with fellow standups to try to make them even funnier, and combines it with scenes improvised based on ideas from those jokes. A group of amateur comedians from Toronto learn what they shoulda said instead when their sets have different angles shone on them when they make it up on the spot. Shoulda Said owes its existence to the concepts it stole from the podcasts Working It Out by Mike Birbiglia and Hey Riddle Riddle by Adal Rifai, Erin Keif and John Patrick Coan.
