Wayne Brady's What If?! with Jonathan Mangum

Eliot Glazer (Broad City, New Girl, Younger) spends some time with Wayne and Jonathan discussing the right and wrong ways on how to be a “proper” gay guy. From his book, The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Gay, Eliot guides our hosts through the places every gay guy seems to vacation, how he navigated his first year out of the closet, and improvises a dating game show with three very questionable bachelors.

Tim Baltz (The Righteous Gemstones, Deli Boys, Widow’s Bay) drops by the studio to talk all things improv with the improv legends themselves, Wayne and Jonathan. Growing up in Joliet, IL, Tim spent all his free time taking the train into the city to catch an improv or sketch show at the Second City, only to find himself performing on the Second City’s Main Stage a decade or so later. From traveling back and forth from Chicago to LA for auditions, to landing his iconic role as BJ Barnes on The Righteous Gemstones, and becoming a brand new parent this year; Tim spends an hour laughing, reminiscing, and reliving some unforgettable childhood memories…through song.

Dan Povenmire (Phineas and Ferb, Hamster & Gretel, Family Guy) spent some time in the studio with Wayne and Jonathan talking about all things animation! Since the age of 12, Dan always knew he wanted to draw. From his start on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the Simpsons, to his writing and animating days at Rocko’s Modern Life and Family Guy, all the way to creating his own hit show Phineas and Ferb and Hamster & Gretel. Together, they discuss his early days of unknowingly meeting George R.R. Martin, losing his southern accent from Mobile, Alabama and transitioning from “Y’all” to “You all,” and improvising a brand new animated show with Wayne and Jonathan that will surely be greenlit at Disney Channel anytime now (with some minor adjustments).

Ben Schwartz (Sonic the Hedgehog, Parks and Recreation, DuckTales) joins Wayne and Jonathan in the greatest short-form, long-form improv set in What If?!’s history. Ben is no stranger to the improv world, traveling the country with his show Ben Schwartz & Friends where he, a couple of friends, and four chairs are all it takes to entertain a room full of people for two hours straight. Whether he’s performing for two thousand people or ten people, Ben walks us through the fundamentals of Improv, living by Yes, And…, and reminiscing about his early days doing improv shows in yoga studios, unwanted concert venues and anywhere else that would have him. You won’t want to miss this masterclass of improv with three of the greatest improvisers around.
