First stop: Dallas, TX! Easy, right? Totally right. But don’t get it twisted, we put in all the hard work at the top, packed the car up tight, got on the road ahead of schedule and pitstopped in Italy at treat time.

Do you know what Italy is famous for? Exotic jerky, y’all. So we honored this reputation by stopping at the Texas Smokehouse and Gas Station where the jerky was house smoked and the gas was stationed. Samples of jerky were free, however gas samples we frowned upon. (SEE: Jerky Examples)

At The Dallas Comedy House’s homebase/Amanda’s house we found TNM’s own/Dallas’s own Clay Barton drinking beer and playng with his ipet dog, Sock Fresh. We enjoyed many raw seafoods and varieties of breakfasts and too many sushis and left love notes all over town. One day, Chris watched a baseball game with The Victim’s John Rawley and somehow they got a free cup!

Q: What rules about Dallas?
A: A totally fresh crop of badass improvisers. We taught 2 full to the max workshops and performed jams and shows and talked late into the night about all of the fun things.

On towards Kansas City…

Now I understand how an athlete feels when he works really hard for his entire life, studying game tape and practicing, practicing, practicing. I understand the feeling he has when he walks onto the field for the first time because the hard work paid off. It’s time to be rewarded.

En route to the second stop of The Dream of Meal Comedy tour we stopped at Mr. Spriggs BBQ, a small joint near the Oklahoma City airport. Their commercial has been seen and loved by millions online as well as a million times by us. AND WE ATE THERE LIVE. Additional video evidence coming soon.

Post meal we performed a comedy show in our friend Emily’s living room. A bunch of people showed up and good times were had. Video evidence for this coming later as well. For now, we catch up on our internet duties and prepare for our show in St. Louis tonight!
