#72 This Past Year and Next | The Slade Ham Experiment

The Slade Ham Experiment ·

2023/12/20

This is an honest one. I contemplate how I played 2023 and look at where I am headed in 2024. I am pretty brutal with myself, but I think it's all been worth it. I have a brand new special coming in 2024 and it's really good. I hope you stick around for it! (Hint: A sub will keep you in the loop!)

#71 How to Survive the Apocalypse | The Slade Ham...

The Slade Ham Experiment ·

2023/11/22

It the last episode before a brief hiatus. In this ep I strategize on what I would do in a post-apocalyptic world. Hint: it wouldn't be hiding in a room full of canned goods. What are your plans? Could you make it? I also ruminate on wildlife cinematographers and their detached approach to their jobs and relationships, as well as Johnny Rolfe, the most self-reliant man I've never met. I cover a lot of pointless ground in this one. Join me? I have a brand new special coming in 2024. Please consider

#67 It's Okay Not to Have an Opinion | The Slade Ham...

The Slade Ham Experiment ·

2023/10/25

After a week of watching people on the internet, my frustrations sort of work their way out of me. Influencers, restaurant reviews, and a mandatory call to pick sides to everything, from cell phones to global conflicts. It's exhausting. I prefer to profess my ignorance in almost every field. I know that among all the other biases I fall prey to, the Dunning-Kruger Effect is one of the biggest. Let's chat. Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

The Slade Ham Experiment ·

2023/10/18

This week marked the release of Andy Huggins brand new comedy special, Early Bird Special. How we got there is a story that got it's start over two decades ago, and it is s testament to how doing the right thing can lead to even better things for everyone involved. Also, I visited Bard College in upstate New York to see Neil Gaiman give a series of lectures on writing. I came back inspired. Hopefully it motivates you just a little as well.

I wrote a piece earlier in the week covering ten things I wish I'd learned sooner when it comes to comedy. I elaborate on all these, but this is the gist of it: 1 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻’𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 2 𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗳𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘂𝗿𝗲 3 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗮 𝗶𝘀, 𝗰𝗵𝘂𝗻𝗸 𝗶𝘁 4 𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗮𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗲 5 𝗦𝗮𝘆 𝘆𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗻’𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝘆𝗲𝘁 6 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗱𝘆 𝗶𝘀

The Slade Ham Experiment ·

2023/09/27

I spent the week with friends of mine who are all more talented than me. I hung out with Lou, Brad, & Kevin, and it made me revisit the country music of my past. Hint, there isn't much. Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

The Slade Ham Experiment ·

2023/09/20

Somehow birds keep finding me. I rescued a dove on my way to the store, which makes me remember the macaw that I kept for a while. Plus, being alone, being on Alone, and people who are afraid of being alone. Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

#61 Good Grocery Stores & Why You Really Like Suits |...

The Slade Ham Experiment ·

2023/09/13

My neighborhood features a Combat Kroger where there's never any real food and everyone thinks everyone is stealing. More posh grocery stores are an entirely different experience. I used to work in a grocery store myself way back in the 90s. I also bring up some television shows that toy with tension to make us avid watchers, namely Alone and Suits. The latter is particularly good at preying on our attention and love of short, bite-sized story nuggets. Please consider telling a friend if you dig

The Slade Ham Experiment ·

2023/09/05

I picked up some surprise sets this weekend alongside Cristela Alonzo at the Houston Improv. Great crowds, and a nice opportunity to finally run some jokes from the special without any pressure. I also caught Oppenheimer, finally! Christopher Nolan is a fantastic storyteller. I try to stay there, and keep most if what I talk about spoiler free. And like most things do, this sends me down a rabbit hole thinking about how much I truly don't understand about almost everything I encounter. Please

The Slade Ham Experiment ·

2023/08/30

I lose it fighting a cockroach, who sent red wasp and fire ant minions before it. Burn the world down, I say. I also revisit a previous line of thinking in order to answer a question, which leads me down a road of vintage video games and what I have learned from them.

#57 Worst Travel Moments from 20 Years of Exploring |...

The Slade Ham Experiment ·

2023/08/09

I try to recall my worst travel experiences from the last two decades. Believe it or not, it's hard. I don't hang on to a lot of the bad ones, and even the ones I do get overwritten with the good from the trip. Nevertheless, it doesn't always go to plan. Security in Yemen, heartbreak in Australia, Afghanistan floods, dead cats in Canada, and a head wound in Romania... let's revisit my past, shall we?

The Slade Ham Experiment ·

2023/08/02

I just got back from touring the new show for two weeks in Canada. I talk about what went wrong at one of the shows, then get sidetracked by my Uber ride home. Momin, my driver, was from Afghanistan. He might have convinced me to permanently add the shemagh (a scarf that is everywhere in the Arab world) to my wardrobe. Also, I walk myself through my strategies around the special, and how important it is to set the stakes and rules in advance, no matter what game you decide to play.
