  • Nobody cares about NASA?!
    Apr 24 2026

    The builders discuss the Artemis 2 mission and the public’s strange obsession with mundane space failures, such as malfunctioning toilets and broken email systems. The group critiques the mission's lackluster media coverage, jokingly suggesting that NASA should pivot to a reality TV format featuring "first orgasms in space" or "confessional booths" to regain global interest.

    So now the question is: are these bits… or career-ending decisions?

  • How to stop Ireland!?
    Apr 20 2026

    The builders brainstorm stand-up material and sketches centered on the surreal nature of Donald Trump's public persona, including his portrayal as a religious figure. The conversation shifts to local Irish news, specifically the irony of farmers and hauliers using tractor blockades to protest rising fuel prices by cutting off the country's fuel supply.

  • Compared my girlfriend to Hitler?!
    Apr 15 2026

    The 3 builders go behind the scenes to discuss the creative process of developing and refining new stand-up material. They workshop several provocative premises, ranging from a "corrupt judge" personification of American foreign policy to a dark "French model" for government accountability. By analyzing a recent live performance, the group explores how the raw connection with an audience can be just as vital as the punchline itself.

  • "Real hate" VS "True hate"
    Apr 8 2026

    Mauricio brings his work-in-progress stand-up bit about skateboarders to the table, inspired by Barcelona's crackdown on skaters at the MACBA museum. The crew workshopping the material live, debating whether to double down on the hate or keep walking it back, and riffing on everything from Karen vigilantes to the philosophical difference between "true hate" and "real hate." It gets dark, it gets funny, and somehow ends with a bus, a body, and a very specific kind of joy.
