Hi. My name’s Mike Franke. I’m a stand-up comic. I think stand-up is an art form. I respect and appreciate it as an art form. This is a podcast called Comedy Obsessed, where I discuss the art of stand-up comedy. I hope comedy fans/nerds and other stand-up comics enjoy it and/or learn some exciting shizz from it.
I’m also into psychology, philosophy, neuroscience, and literature, specifically how all of those things relate to the art of stand-up comedy. I’m not focused on being funny on this podcast. I worry about doing that on stage. Here, I’m more interested in questions about creativity and artistic expression.
Also, I’m a dentist, and I enjoy taking photos of other stand-up comics. You can learn more about that stuff on my website: anotherlazymillennial.com.
Maybe I can help you take care of your teeth too. Wouldn’t that be weird and fun?
Thanks for listening!
