Ep. 31-“All Joking Aside” BIG Dave Ebert

October 23, 2020 lfhpodcast

Great quote from Dave:
“For many years, I used to use comedy to hide who I was, but now I use comedy to reveal who He is.”
to newbie improv people he would say:
“Your job is not to be funny. You do not have to be funny. Take that burden off of you, because improv is built on being human. Humans are funny. I think God built us as much for love and compassion as he did for comic relief.”
