In the Arena: Episode 17: (with Jason "Jake" Iannarino)




The Sales Blog » In the Arena Podcast show

Summary:   Jake is my younger brother. He’s a professional comedian and actor with deep roots in improv. When he was 17, he was the youngest member accepted to the national touring improv group, Midwest Comedy Tool & Die, led by Michael Loftus (http://www.mikeloftuscomedy.com) (Producer and Head Writer of Charlie Sheen’s Anger Management). Jake was also in The Animal (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0255798/) and The Hot Chick (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0302640/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1), and recently helped write and produce American Wiseass (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2611780/fullcredits?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm#cast) for The History Channel. I ask Jake to talk about getting his start in comedy, the rules of Improv, trust in the process, and he writes a “new” theme song for In the Arena (which I promise will never be used outside of this podcast). WARNING: Jake is a professional comedian. You are listening to this podcast of your own free will, and I am in no way liable for your being offended in any way—particularly during the song.
