What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Maybe it’s the quality of comedy or maybe it’s the world, but this show has been a soothing laugh in these hard days. If you hunger for comedy is great, you’ll get your full no matter what episode you start with. Found this podcast after the recc from an appearance on Word Association. The friendship, charisma and chemistry are a fortune to my ears, and the comedy benefitting from such quality is exactly what I need in between all my politics podcasts. Appreciate all the work and hope more and more folks find this podcast and all the other improv shows in the podcast world.

Alex is Under Your Bed · Jul 2026

Having binged every improv podcast that I could find and tolerate, I found myself growing progressively more desperate for comedy podcast recommendations. In a moment of inspiration, I recalled a documentary I’d watched decades ago called Weird Science, in which two socially inept but resourceful high school kids use their personal computer to generate their perfect woman. Following their method, I fed my computer scraps of improv pods I found particularly attractive: Hey Riddle Riddle, Comedy Bang Bang, Man Dog Pod, The Daily. Suddenly, the room darkened, neon lights hummed to life, and through a curtain of mist, Improv Is Dead walked out in a tight vinyl dress and stiletto heels. My life hasn’t been the same since. Six Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

i have been a long time listener of the “improv impod” as i have grown to call it. i love every episode they make me laugh but more importantly they teach me about loving and growing as a family. as we all know dan is a single father raising tim on his own, when times were tough dans brother damian stepped up and became like a second father to tim. i love the improv family and i hope you all never stop making episodes. P.S. been playing clothes swap since 2021 and im glad it finally is catching on.

MickyTheMicky · Jan 2024

Listening to an episode of Improv is Dead brings me an amount of joy equal to shotgunning about half a dozen deviled eggs. A dense and delightful joy.

TheWilyFish · Dec 2023

I was a fan for a few years. The presentation and format have changed. The show name change isn’t a big deal. And now that these creators have put main episodes behind a Patreon paywall, this is where I depart as a fan. I appreciate the Improve Is Dead years of the show. But now that the show is behind a paywall, I’m done. Maybe if the show returns to how it was, I might come back as a regular listener. But for now, it’s a pass. Thanks folks, for the entertainment! And good luck with the show in the future.
