Hey Nation,
Do you like a good laugh?
I had an incredibly satisfying conversation with the brilliantly funny and insightful Leanne Linsky.
Comedy, Innovation, and... Binder Clips?
Leanne, mastermind behind the innovative online comedy platform Plausible, brought her A-game to the Lab, showing us that comedy and problem-solving go hand in hand, like peanut butter and jelly... or like me and unexpected tech hiccups.
Yeah, we had a few of those!
Leanne's approach to tackling issues (like her impromptu lighting fix using binder clips and a tablecloth—you have to watch the show replay to see what that’s about!) is something every entrepreneur, artist, and pretty much anyone breathing, should take to heart. It's about being resourceful, folks!
The Heart of a Comedian: Vulnerability Meets Humor
What does it take to be a good comedian? Is it the jokes? The timing? The ability to make fun of your own life mishaps? According to Leanne, it's all about vulnerability. Opening up, sharing those raw, real moments of life… And, yes, even embracing the flops along the way. That's where the true magic of laughter is born.
This doesn't just apply to comedy. It's a life lesson for all of us. Be real, be you, and don't be afraid to show the world what you're made of—even if it means revealing that you, too, struggle to remember the lyrics to "Tubthumping" by Chumbawamba (It's "I get knocked down, but I get up again," in case you were wondering).
Plausible: A Playground for Comedians
In a world where we're bombarded with curated, polished content, Plausible brings the raw, unfiltered joy of live comedy right to your screen. It's about connecting, sharing laughs, and, most importantly, giving comedians the steering wheel in their artistic journey. I invite you to check it out.
Embrace the Journey, One Step at a Time
Leanne's journey with Plausible is a testament to the power of just getting started. Too often, we get paralyzed by the pursuit of perfection or the fear of the unknown.
But this cliché is as true as ever: progress is better than perfection. Start small. Improve daily. And who knows? You might just find yourself creating something amazing—or at least having a good laugh along the way!
So, to all the dreamers, doers, and laugh-seekers out there, let's take a page out of Leanne's book. Tackle problems with creativity, embrace your authentic self, and never underestimate the power of a good, hearty chuckle.
Stay tuned for more life lessons, tech blunders, and spontaneous singing (yes, that happens here) from Live in the Lab with Keith Bilous. And remember, in a world full of scripts, just be yourself.
Until next time, keep living, laughing, and innovating.
Cheers,
Keith
