TED Talks Daily · Sunday Pick: Why you should try improv comedy (w/ Rick Andrews) | How to Be a Better Human · 19 Jul 2026 podcast

That's interesting.

That sign doesn't make any sense, you know?

Why do they call it Hudson News?

You know, whatever.

Like there's just a kind of curiosity about the present moment that I think does like translate off of the stage a little bit.

Yes, that's exactly right.

I didn't understand the question, the reaction.

I was like, well, I teach on Sundays.

This is our last class, you know?

I feel like improv is like, I've heard from people, it's like, it helps on dates and job interviews or whatever.

Not that that's like the purpose of it, you know, or like how, like why you should do it.

But it is one of those things where anything, where you're in this situation where you feel a little nervous, you don't know how it's going to go.

Someone might ask a question you weren't expecting.

It's a lot of like just managing that moment a little bit.

And I think you're doing that through like an enhanced mindset

set of like listening skills a little bit like just paying attention being in the moment noticing stuff um but also like i think it builds self-confidence in a more genuine way you know it's not about like i don't know pretending to be this confident person it's like improv is a lot of as i'm sure you felt learning it and getting really good at it right it's like you are uh trying your hand at it and not great at it at first but you're doing this context where people are building off of every idea you say no matter how bad it is and people support you so you kind of get to prove

your idea's validity to yourself.

I feel like I constantly was having moments where I was like, I don't know what I should do.

And then I would say a thing.

And your scene partner's like, great.
