We talk about the biggest misconceptions around game, why it’s about playing the game—not the story—and how to get better at it. We also discuss the value of highlighting what others do well instead of pointing out their weaknesses, the improviser’s willingness to lose in a scene, and finally, Will gets the chance to ask a question to himself.Impropodden is a conversational podcast produced and hosted by ⁠Hjalmar Hardestam#impropodden #improvisationsteater #ImprovComedy #improvcomedyclubse
