    Partner: Gorilla Mind - Use code: 20

    This week on Move the Mic Stand, Dean Berg and Ka$h Money Karl kick things off with Ka$h’s unfortunate eardrum situation, which somehow spirals into a very serious discussion about sneezing.

    From there, the guys check in on what they’re drinking from Gorilla Mind, then break down a fun night at their regular open mic — the weird moments, the good sets, and the little things you only notice when you’re in the room working material.

    They also drop a comedy tip about referencing the room: why it matters, how to do it right, and why jokes land harder when everyone knows exactly what you’re talking about right now — not later.

    Things wrap up with talk about gravy packets, Ka$h’s set experiments, and a deep dive into walk-up songs — the ones you choose versus the ones mysteriously assigned to you at open mics.

    Real comics. Real reps. Real talk.

    Partner: Gorilla Mind - Use code: 20

    TIn this episode of Move the Mic Stand, Dean and Kash kick things off with Kash’s new commitment to politeness—literally raising his hand every time he wants to talk.

    From there, the conversation launches into everything from the disappearance of artificial food dyes to why some people completely missed the point of Dean’s TikTok about the joy of Saturday morning cartoons and a simple bowl of cereal.

    The guys dive into nostalgia, rant about scalpers ruining Christmas by flipping kids’ toys, and explore the strange charm of antiques that no one needs but everyone ends up talking about.

    Then it’s time for the Comedy Tip of the Week: Stop letting street jokes win.

    Dean and Kash break down why unoriginal, recycled jokes keep slipping into competitions—and why real comedians need to push originality instead of leaning on decades-old material.

    They also shout out Gorilla Mind, their new partnership, how the products help fuel the show, and how listeners can support the podcast using Code 20 at checkout on the Gorilla Mind website.

    Another episode full of laughs, nostalgia, and a little chaos—raise your hand if you’re ready.

    Special Guest: Chuck Charles

    This week on Move the Mic Stand, Dean and Karl welcome special guest and close friend Chuck Charles for a Bomb A$$ conversation that goes way off the rails in the best way possible.

    Dean kicks things off bragging (rightfully) about the bomb a$$ casserole he cooked earlier today, which somehow leads to the crew designing the ultimate Move the Mic Stand specialty pizza—a wishlist sponsor special loaded with the wild toppings only comedians would dare suggest.
    And yes… Dean might go on a Bomb A$$ rant about a recent comedy show he and Karl did. (You know Dean—zero filter, full send.)

    If you like food, comedy, chaos, and Chuck Charles, this episode is a certified Bomb A$$ time.

  • Move the Mic Stand - Jigsaw Jiggalos and Thanksgiving UFOs

    Move the Mic Stand - Jigsaw Jiggalos and Thanksgiving UFOs
    Nov 27 2025
    This episode is sponsored by: Mini Golf Reviews

    This Thanksgiving, Dean and Karl serve up a holiday episode that’s equal parts cozy, chaotic, and completely on-brand. Karl embraces his new identity as a full-fledged “jigsaw jiggalo,” and seeks a million dollar idea of single serve shredded cheese bags. While, Dean insists you can make a pie out of any drinkable liquid, and somehow it all leads into a wild UFO tale involving a mysterious desert artifact and a blinding blue flash.

    This week’s comedy tip is all about thankfulness — appreciating the journey, being grateful for each other, and recognizing how much bookers, audiences, and the comedy community shape the ride. It’s a heartfelt moment tucked between all the absurdity.

    It’s the Thanksgiving episode you didn’t know you needed: laughs, aliens, puzzles, pie science, and a reminder to be grateful for the weird, wonderful path we’re all on.

    This episode is sponsored by: Mini Golf Reviews

    In this spine-tingling episode of Move the Mic Stand, we dive into the world of spooky storytelling with special guests J.J. Fletcher—actually the pen name for authors Jim and Jes Schwarzbauer.

    We chat about their new book Echoes of the Unearthly, a collection of five chilling tales now available on Amazon.

    Get your copy here!

    Along the way, we also get into the art of comedy crowd work, a little bit about writing and self-publishing, and even a funny moment with Jim’s blueberry-flavored drink that Ka$h is hilariously allergic to.

    It’s a mix of laughs, frights, and behind-the-scenes book talk you won’t want to miss!
