Snap Impression

Andy just moved to LA, and boy are his arms tired. From killing ants, that is! But he took time out from slaughtering the thousands of ants that have been invading his apartment to do a live episode of Snap Impression at UCB Sunset. Taped back in July, in the days before neo-nazis were marching in the street, Andy is joined by guest judge Freda Carpaggio, who has "something to tell the audience" as well as three wonderful guests Jordan Morris (Jordan, Jesse, Go!), Rachel Butera (The Howard Stern Show), and Nick Vatterott (Comedy Central Half Hour)!

Oh baby, with Andy's move to LA, it's our last live show in New York for a while (and technically our third anniversary as a podcast!), and buddy, do we go out in style with a killer guest judge cat wrangler Derek Greeley and four contestants that are both awesome people and some of the funniest comics and performers around: Sunita Mani (Mr. Robot, GLOW), Langston Kerman (Insecure), Mike Brown (Comedy Outliers), Dillon Stevenson (The Decepticomics). Also, by the way, LA is a menacing craphole filled with ants! Check out the Snap Impression website and follow us on Twitter!

Taped live in the Podcast Lounge at this year's Del Close Marathon on June 25th! The Podcast Lunge is a kind of open-air studio located in the "Hangout Space" (where tired improvisors can chill out).
