The Improverbial Podcast

A Story of Success

Pete Kirkwood and Lisa Thauvette unearth obscure old sayings from around the world and invent absurd new proverbs on the spot. It’s a mashup of improv comedy, positive psychology, human development theory, and idiomatic weirdness. Produced in collaboration with The Boardman Review and Cold Shower Media.

Joe Sanok is a master marketer, therapist, business owner AND a fun and playful improviser.

Thanks, Joe, for the shout-out...and take a listen to this episode...Joe is a very smart hombre.

GT Pulse: Local Podcast Collective provides a Variety of Fresh Entertainment

"The Improverbial Podcast" was featured, along with "Breaking the Surface" and "tBR Podcast", as part of The Boardman Review podcast collective on 9 & 10 northern Michigan news. "The Improverbial" was described as:

"...a lighthearted podcast featuring two locals who started an improv group. Lisa Thauvette and Pete Kirkwood explore old sayings from around the world and where they come from. They also have fun with inventing new proverbs of their own on the spot. “It is that type of content people are craving right now,” Taylor said. “It’s light, it gives people a break. But, at the same time, when you listen to it it’s really stimulating. It’s fun.” In their most recent episode, they dissect the old proverb ‘Old pots make good soup.’ Improverbial releases every other Tuesday."
