EP 40 - Daniel Reskin // Taking a Stand and the Art of Being Funny
29 Jun 2020
We a bit late with this one. In the last week of our Italian lockdown we had the pleasure to speak to comedian Daniel Reskin about his decision to step down from Stand-up. He has a great podcast where he talks to other wounded warriors about the difficulties of dropping the mike that last time. 📱instagram https://instagram.com/@danielreskin website http://danielreskin.com Stand Down Podcast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZrxNczor6k ________________________________________________________ ➡️SUBSCRIBE: http://bit.ly/ASPsubscribe Find us on: ➡️SPOTIFY: http://bit.ly/ASPspotify ➡️APPLE PODCASTS: http://bit.ly/ArcadeApple ➡️SPREAKER http://bit.ly/ArcadeSpreaker ➡️FACEBOOK: https://bit.ly/ArcadeFB ________________________________________________________ ➡️OFFICIAL WEBSITE: https://bit.ly/ArcadeStudioPodcastOfficial ➡️RENT THE STUDIO https://www.arcadestudiomilano.com/ ________________________________________________________ #ArcadeStudioPodcast is hosted by Andrea & René Olivo 📱@arcadestudiomilano https://www.instagram.com/arcadestudiomi/ 📱@andy_olive https://www.instagram.com/andy_olive/ 📱@rinothechef https://www.instagram.com/rinothechef/ ________________________________________________________ LISTEN, MORE. ________________________________________________________ time stamps 00:01 - Wardrobe Malfunction 00:50 - Sweat Records 01:50 - The difference between a standup comedian and a comedian 03:42 - Reasons to give up stand up 04:40 - a demanding art 05:30 - creative boom 07:50 - oh, I can do that... 08:55 - Daniel's first spot 10:48 - Moving to Denver 12:06 - Being tanned in lockdown 13:20 - Those friends that help make you attractive to the opposite sex 14:20 - Why Daniel stepped away from the mike 17:30 - Dave Chapelle 19:13 - the commerce of comedy 21:00 - video games 21:40 - stop being precious 22:40 - acting classes 24:46 - learning to be funny in a new language 28:03 - Daniel massacres Spanish 29:01 - "catching" ideas 30:03 - Renè needs to get on stage 32:33 - Lous CK 35:43 - Me Too in Italy 39:11 - The Honour culture 40:35 - old people 41:01 - Gulshan Mia 43:30 - Daniel make predictions 45:30 - boiling down politics to a few talking points 49:39 - how Netflix educated audiences 51:10 - holding people from the past to current standards 55:01 - comedy is the voice outside the choir 58:01 - Community and how comedy has become ore personal ________________________________________________________ #ArcadeStudioPodcast is hosted by: @andy_olive & @rinothechef LISTEN, MORE. ________________________________________________________ KIT 🎤Mics: Neewer NW-800 https://amzn.to/2ymVaYN 🎧Headphones: AKG K92 https://amzn.to/2Sr09OU 🔊Amplifier: Behringer U-Phoria UMC404HD https://amzn.to/2VZbjwN 📹Cameras: Panasonic HC-W580EG-K https://amzn.to/3hodW3T ________________________________________________________ Links Sweat Records http://sweatrecordsmiami.com Standup Comedy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stand-up_comedy Denver https://www.denver.org Dave Chapelle https://www.netflix.com/it-en/title/80230402 George Carlin https://georgecarlin.com Tom Segura in Spanish https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMwAChSiPvQ Me Too in Italy https://www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2018/01/18/578562334/in-italy-metoo-falters-amid-public-scorn?t=1593036302293 Christopher Hitchens on abortion https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2003/02/hitchens200302 Why Aziz yes but CK no https://theplaylist.net/aziz-ansari-stand-up-return-20190212/ Community https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community_(TV_series) Nanette https://www.wired.com/story/hannah-gadsby-nanette-discussion/
