Confessions of a Sexist Qumph

Posted on October 10th, 2014 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

I did a series of comedy shows recently where I was the middle act and a female comedian was hosting. (I’m not including her name, because I’ve seen enough of these types of blogs go viral to know that if it does, she will get negative blow back from this story. She absolutely does not […]


Please Watch This Tonight!

Posted on October 4th, 2014 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

This isn’t a blog so much as it is a blatant plug for comedy. But not my comedy, for a change. A guy I knew when I lived in LA, Jerrod Carmichael, has an HBO special premiering tonight. Not only is this guy super funny, prolific, and dedicated…he’s also an amazingly nice guy. So please […]

As I type up this blog into my phone, I’m in the green room of the San Jose Improv. Just finished doing 20 minutes of comedy. Now Mr. John Witherspoon is on stage.

Backstage Blog

Posted on October 28th, 2011 by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

Day 27: As I type this, I am backstage at a show waiting to go on. I thought it might be interesting to get an inside look into a comic’s mind just before and after a show. So the first part of this blog will be written before I go on and the second part […]
