Paul F. Tompkins returns to Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend to talk about where he learned improv ("podcasting was a huge school of improv for me"), performing improv opposite puppets on No, You Shut Up!, feedback from an exec that sent him spiraling, anti-depressants, fabric flowers, making up words, relationships, the appeal of Werner Herzog, Spontaneanation, "the tyranny of the template," acoustic toothbrushes, wanting to matter, relationships, Comedy Bang Bang, anxiety and fear and more. Plus we took your questions over twitter and did a round of Just Me Or Everyone.
