“What’s the deal with Columbus, Ohio?” (Can you hear Garry saying that as he’s impersonating Jerry Seinfeld?) It’s Ohio’s state capital, has the largest population in that state, is ranked as one of the most livable cities in America, and Garry Meier and Leslie Keiling have been talking about it on the show quite a bit lately.

Before founding The Nest Theatre, they both performed and taught improvisational comedy in Chicago for more than a decade, and they both have performed and taught all over the world, including touring engagements in at least 51 cities in 18 countries.
